Sunday is the day: the potential Oscar winner The Banshees of Inisherin appears on Disney Plus. Chance? Certainly not. The Oscars will be awarded the following night.
The Banshees of Inisherin was released in theaters on January 26. Less than two months later, the film can already be found on the streaming service. Call it a record. It usually takes up to 7 months for a movie to appear on Disney Plus. Sunday, March 12 is the day, then you will find the possible Oscar winner on Disney’s streaming platform.
If the film wins an award in the night from Sunday to Monday, it will not be the first time. The comedy film already won prizes at the Venice Film Festival. At the Oscars, the film was nominated in no less than nine categories. It should be clear that film connoisseurs have enjoyed the concept. Surprising? No, maybe not. The script of the film was written by Oscar winner Martin McDonagh. McDonagh also directed the film.
Verhaal van The Banshees of Inisherin
Whether The Banshees or Inisherin will win one (or more) Oscars is anything but certain. There are already plenty of other candidates such as Elvis, Top Gun: Maverik and Avatar: The Way of Water. What makes McDonagh’s film unique is Pádraic’s infinite power to restore friendship with Colm. Even if Colm cuts off one of Pádraic’s fingers, that battle continues.
The story of the film is set on an island off the west coast of Ireland. Colm and Pádraic are the main couple in the film, but Pádraic’s sister (Siobhan) also adds the necessary drama to the film. Will Pádraic manage to mend his relationship with his good friend, or will that journey lead to the complete demise of the band (or worse)?
Fans of the necessary drama should not miss The Banshees of Inisherin. If you haven’t seen the film in the cinema, take the chance to discover the story from Sunday 12 March. Be sure to follow the Oscar ceremony to get some inspiration for films that you should not miss.
