Learning on ScreenShadow of a Gunman
- Synopsis
- An American television production of O’Casey’s play, writtten in 1923. It is a tragi-comedy set in a squalid Dublin tenement in 1920. Portrays the life of some obscure people during the time of the bloody rebellion, when the Irish Republican Army and Britain’s Black-and-Tans were fighting guerilla warfare in the streets. A young Irish poet, Donal Davoren speaks loftily of the political battle between Ireland and England, and pretends he is a revolutionist in hiding to convince a pretty girl that he is a fighting patriot.
