I liked In Bruges the first time I saw it. Only after seeing it a second time did I realize how fucking great it actually is. The ending of the film is set up so well once you know it’s coming.
One of the great lines that gets lost in this scene (because it’s full of great lines) is:
“He’s suicidal? I’m suicidal. You’re suicidal. Everybody’s fucking suicidal, we don’t all keep going on about it.”
This movie is my Colin Farrell revelation. After watching him in movies like SWAT, Phone Booth, Miami Vice…etc. I thought he was yet another Hollywood actor. Then I watched In Bruges and realized that the man’s got range.
Bruges really loves that there is a film about it. You can get tourist maps showing scenes from the film there. At least, you could when I was there on honeymoon eight years ago.
When this first came out in DVD, I brought it over to this girl’s house that I just started seeing. Little did I know that her grandfather killed himself several months back so when that park scene came around, she started balling her eyes out and that ended the date and the relationship. Still love this movie though.
I think my favorite part of this rich, layered movie is that Colin Farrell commits the same “sins” that the little boy is confessing >!just before, y’know.!< The sins are (1) being moody, (2) being bad at maths, and (3) being sad.
Throughout the movie, Ken accuses Ray of “pitching a moody” like a kid. Ray is also obviously distraught and sad throughout the movie (>!”Have you been missing something, Ken? I want to be a dead man.” broke my heart!<). Finally, when Ray is drunk, he miscounts the number of beers he drinks. He also makes a few accounting errors.
If youâre a fan of this movie (and you should be) give Banshees of Inisherin a watch. It has Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson and is written by Martin McDonagh (In Bruges creator) Itâs phenomenal and is in a lot of ways like a more mature spiritual successor to this movie.
I’ve seen this film before and yet am laughing at this bit that I forgot đ
You fuckin retract that bit about my cunt fucking kids!
One of the best films from the uk/Ireland in the last 20 years.
My favourite comedy by far
YOU’RE AN INANIMATE FUCKING OBJECT!

Its a fucking fairy tale town, innit?

The alcoves
Do you have this word, alcoves??
I’m going to have to watch this again. I don’t think it fully sank in the first time round. Thanks
Is this the Harry Potter prequel were Voldy and Mad-Eye call each other cunts? I’m all in.
You could clip any scene from that movie and it would be good.
fucking love this movie so much, i went to Bruges and sat down in the park
One of the great lines that gets lost in this scene (because it’s full of great lines) is:
“He’s suicidal? I’m suicidal. You’re suicidal. Everybody’s fucking suicidal, we don’t all keep going on about it.”
This is legit one of the best dark comedies ever
“…he was going on about the alcoves?!”
I didnât know until The Menu released that Ralph Fiennes is pronounced âRafe Finesâ and not âRalph Fee-ennâ
In Bruges is an absolute classic.
I retracted it didn’t I?

One of my favourite films, take an upvote
Time for my 14th rewatch

Something looks weird about this clip. Like its been filtered with AI.
The eyes. Its uncanny valley.
I love the scene with Ray in the room and Harry at the bottom of the steps with the pregnant woman sitting in the stairwell.
“Why don’t you both put your guns down, and go home?”
“Don’t be stupid. This is a shootout.”
Leave it fatty

I wish I had kids so I could make people retract that bit about my cunt fucking kids.
âThis gets fucking worse!â
