Cillian Murphy heads a solid cast in director Neil Jordan's spirited romp based on Patrick McCabe's roisterous novel. Born the love child of a priest (Liam Neeson) in a conservative Irish hamlet, transvestite Patrick Braden (Murphy) leaves small-town life behind and heads to swinging 1970s London to find the mother who abandoned him. Along the way, Patrick -- who's a trouble magnet -- unwittingly takes up with an Irish Republican Army gunrunner.
