Donald Clarke Irish Times 11/30/2017
3/5
It would be overstating the case to suggest that John Hume has been written out of history, but... we are beginning to lose sight of that dogged politician's contribution. Maurice Fitzpatrick's hugely professional documentary seeks to rectify that. Go to Full Review

4.5/5
Packed with information and alert to the importance of details, this is an impressive example of the historical documentary art. Go to Full Review
