Angela's Ashes 1999

Based on the best selling autobiography by Irish expat Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes follows the experiences of young Frankie 
and his family as they try against all odds to escape the poverty endemic in the slums of pre-war Limerick. 
The film opens with the family in Brooklyn, but following the death of one of Frankie's siblings, they return home 
only to find the situation there even worse. 
Prejudice against Frankie's Northern Irish father makes his search for employment in the Republic difficult despite his having fought for the IRA 
and when he does find money, he spends the money on drink. Written by KB-26
