JIM SHERIDAN: IRELEND’S FINEST DIRECTOR.

Jim Sheridan was a prominent figure of the New Wave of Irish filmmaking in the 1990s. His work has always been praised for his balance between mainstream entertainment and social statements on Irish issues.

My Left Foot (1989), which marked the first of three successful collaborations with actor and fellow Irishman Daniel Day-Lewis including In The Name Of The Father (1993) & The Boxer (1997) all which earned universal acclaim.

His second film The Field (1990) (making its Blu-ray debut in this box) was overlooked at the time of release and is now ripe for re-appraisal with praised performances from Richard Harris, Sean Bean & John Hurt.

This limited-edition collection brings all four films together for the first time with stunning HD presentations, newly produced interviews, commentaries & features all confirming that Sheridan is a powerful force behind the camera.

1989 My Left Foot
1990 The Field
1993 In the Name Of the Father
1997 The Boxer

Limited Edition 4 Disc Hard box set. 1000 copies.

My Left Foot
(1989) – Imprint Collection #138
Based on the story of Christy Brown, this highly acclaimed film depicts his struggle for a normal life.

With the help of his strong-willed and dedicated family and his own sheer courage and determination, he learns to grapple with life’s simple physical tasks and develops into a brilliant painter, poet and author.

Starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Brenda Fricker, Fiona Shaw and Ruth McCabe.

Winner of two Academy Awards® including Best Actor, Daniel Day-Lewis (1989) and winner of two BAFTAs including Best Actor, Daniel Day-Lewis (1989).

“Bull” McCabe’s family has farmed a field for generations, sacrificing endlessly for the sake of the land. And when the widow who owns the field decides to sell the field in a public auction, McCabe knows that he must own it. But while no one in the village would dare bid against him, an American with deep pockets decides that he needs the field to build a highway. The Bull and his son decide to convince the American to give up bidding on the field, but things go horribly wrong.
