Fans of John Michael McDonagh's 2011 The Guard will revel in his follow-up: another dark-minded but mordantly comic exploration of Ireland's collective psyche. This suspenseful, crisply told mystery wowed festival audiences and is grounded by a performance of monumental soul by Brendan Gleeson. Gleeson plays a guilt-addled priest marked for death by one of his parishioners. As he counsels his flock, our hero begins to wonder if he will have the courage to face his own personal Calvary. D: John Michael McDonagh, US, 2014, 100m
