Rascal Films have been preparing this biopic of Ireland's most famous socialist for a few years now. They have been raising funds in a number of ways, avoiding the corporate route a little bit like the Crude film which shane wrote about before. Now, Mackozer reports that the most realistic portrayal of turn of the 20th century Dublin is to be found in Poland and Gdansk specifically. Thus the film is to be shot there. I'm sure if Connolly was around today he would be joining colleagues in SIPTU etc in organising the new Polish workers and hopefully this film went it arrives on our screens will awaken many, of all nationalities, to his message.
