They rarely ever are. Systems of power protect themselves.

[@varrjames186]

Apparently it wasn't in the public's best interest for them to be charged...say no more.

[@francessweeney2308]

The statute of limitations for perverting the course of justice is 5 years,so unfortunately any legal proceedings would be futile. The people had been locked up for 15 years.

1:05 this fucking shot right here, lasts only a little longer than 4 seconds by miliseconds, is the greatest acting I've ever seen he gets angry at the men who frame him, sad because all the years that went by for no reason and happy that it will finally be over just in a matter of 4 seconds, long live Daniel Day-Lewis.

[@molasorrosalom4846]

[@MaquiladoraIII]

He's not in this scene, but Pete Postlethwaite is unbelievable throughout this film: a masterclass in subtlety and emotional heft.

[@nsnopper]

The late Pete Postlethwaite was a terrific actor. I always enjoy watching his performances.

[@oliverjumelle]

That's because his character was dead by at least 8 years.

[@ciudadanakane8743]

Movies of the 90s were so deep and full of meaning. True mater pieces

[@pchan0368]

I watch this film every year. I hardly have dry eyes while watching this movie. What really makes this movie is how we see the relationship between Giuseppe and Gerry Conlon. Gerry hated his father, and as he got older, he ended up understanding and loving him. It's so sad what happened to Gerry Conlon later on in life. I read that he suffered terrible PTSD from his experience.

[@molasorrosalom4846]

Nothing beats seeing this movie for the first time. As soon as those bagpipes hit, I remember tearing up immediately.

I heard someone coin a phrase "jacting". Basically means an actor conveying emotion by subtle changes or movements in the jaw, without words. And what a splendid jactor Daniel Day-Lewis is!

My wife is from County Tipperary - Clonmel. I courted during the early 1970s and the majority of the Southern Irish wanted no involvement in the troubles in NI While I grieve for the losses of the innocent, especially Omagh, I do not grieve for the murderers.

All of them are now dead, Carole Richardson suffered terribly. 5 nervous breakdowns, a slew of medication just to function. She ate herself to 22 stone so she wouldn't be recognised. She died of cancer in 2012 aged just 60 years. The men Patrick Armstrong, Paul Hill and Gerry Conlon all suffered with what we now term as complex PTSD, had problems with alcohol abuse etc. All of them died in their 60s. The police were told by the then home secretary that they had carte blanche to do what was necessary to get confessions,and they did: . Stripped them all naked . Mock execution . Beatings . Police dogs set on them before being called off at the last moment . Threats to harm family . Simulated s#* assault on Carole Richardson,a minor at 17 years old. . Thrusting pictures of the dead in their faces . Denying them the medication to stop the withdrawal symptoms of the Heroin- Methodone These tactics should've rendered any confession as null and void as it was obtained under intense duress

I cry each time I listen to that song : a masterpiece for a wonderful movie about a true story ; it was the Guildford four, and after the Maguire seven in 1974 ; Irish people injustly condemned by the English Justice just because they were Irish ; the English Police and Court failed one again, admitting their mistakes much too late, as too often !!! RIP Gerry and Giuseppe !

[@russellbishop5995]

As Billy Power of the Birmingham 6 said on the day of his release; 'there are many more innocent people languishing in prison; not just Irish but English too.' It wasn't just Irish people who were victims of police corruption and the justice system. By the way, I'm half-Irish.
