Is this the toughest-looking Irish movie ever?

King of the Travellers is being describedas “a Gaelic Godfather”. We wouldn’t dare argue.

BROADCASTER AND JOURNO Vincent Browne is a tough cookie – but is he hard enough for this film?

We’ve just seen the character posters for new Irish film King of the Travellers, due out in cinemas on 19 April.

And news just in – not for those of a delicate disposition – is that Browne is to mediate a Q&A in a special preview screening of the film at the Irish Film Institute on 18 April at 6.30pm.

But does he fancy his chances against these guys? Good luck, Vinny. This is the film the US screen trade mag Variety is calling “a Gaelic Godfather”.

It was nice knowing you.
