When I was in Baumholder, the guys showed me one of their favorite movies, The Boondock Saints. I mistakenly thought that Norman Reedus (one of the main actors) was Tommy Flanagan (who was in Sin City as the IRA guy who throws grenades). You can see similarities in the production stills, but not in the first photos on their pages. (Just in case you thought I was absolutely mad for mistaking one for the other.)
Anyway, the film is good. Vigilante justice, Boston Irish, and Willem Dafoe in a role that you get to see in the more independent films. It's one of those movies that has some wonderfully staged moments as well as heart.
Be sure to look at the extras to see the scene with their mom.
