Eviction

About This Movie

Eviction is an intriguing slice of 19th Century Irish life, steeped in the tension of class struggle and community. The Molly Maguires, a secret society, bring an air of menace as they seek retribution against an old man whose loose tongue has stirred trouble with the Landlord. It's raw, gritty, and the performances, though not from big names, feel authentic and grounded. The pacing has an almost languid quality, allowing the atmosphere of rural despair and defiance to seep in. Practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the grim reality rather than overshadowing the story. You can really sense the oppressive weight of the era, which makes it a unique entry in the drama genre, resonating with themes of loyalty and vengeance.
