Britain's What's On Event Guide
That They May Face The Rising Sun (15)
That They May Face the Rising Sun is an adaptation of the final novel from John McGahern, one of Ireland's greatest novelists. Joe and Kate Ruttledge have returned from London to live and work among a small, rural, lakeside community in Ireland near to where Joe grew up. Now deeply embedded in the life around the lake, the drama of a year in their lives and those of the memorable characters that move about them unfolds through the rituals of work, play and the passing seasons as this enclosed world becomes an everywhere.
‘a sincere and inspired tribute to a world worth discovering, just like the book.’ Perry Norton, Film Threat
‘The acting is top-notch, and the story is compelling, but its verisimilitude is truly off the charts.’ Andy Howell, Film Threat
‘Mr. Collins’s great achievement here is that the slow realization that all our work and striving will end the same way as it does for everyone else is hopeful and poignant instead of despairing.’ Sarah Manvel, Critic's Notebook
