THE CRYING GAME

Grant Movie Club marks St. Patrick’s Day with Neil Jordan’s THE CRYING GAME (1992)! A British soldier (Forest Whitaker) kidnapped by the IRA soon befriends one of his captors (Stephen Rea), who later becomes drawn into the soldier's world—including that of his mysterious lover, the hairdresser Dil (Jaye Davidson). Co-starring Miranda Richardson and analyzing race, gender, and sexuality alongside national conflict, THE CRYING GAME is one of Neil Jordan’s most complex and celebrated masterpieces.
