IFI TALKS:WHEN RODDY MET LYNDA

Director: WHEN RODDY MET LYNDA

This event is presented in association with Dublin City Libraries’ Dublin: One City, One Book festival.


This film screened on Tuesday 21st April 2015.

We are delighted to welcome Roddy Doyle and producer Lynda Myles in a public conversation about the Barrytown film trilogy to be hosted by radio producer, Doireann Ní Bhriain.

The conversation will explore their collaboration which began in 1988 when Myles came on board to produce The Commitments and continued through The Snapper, The Van and When Brendan Met Trudy. They will discuss, among other things, their passion for film (he says he has “never met anyone who loves cinema more than her”); the adaptability of the trilogy; and the different approaches of the films’ directors. The discussion will be illustrated with U.S. cinema trailers for each of the films.
