      I was in the exact same position, then one day he met a girl online from Germany and moved there to marry her. They have a kid now and her parents are rich. Meanwhile I've just dropped out of university and have no idea where my life is going.

    He brought it on himself by being such a sick about it. There is a nuanced and more respectful way to ending a friendship without devastating your old friend’s feelings like he did, which made him obsessed.

    He was too moronic to say "hey bro I'm gonna get serious with me music, so I need 8am to 11pm for practice an I'll be playing in the pub so I'll be busier, this means a lot to me" also was using his friend as a cop out for his laziness.

      Pretty much. He could have still set aside some time for Padraic instead of completely cutting him off. He also just assumed Padraic wouldn't be interested in music and wouldn't want to help his friend.

      "There were so many better solutions to this problem" is my issue with 90% of oscarbait. The plot hinges on characters behaving like morons to make a broader point.

      i refuse to believe that anyone with any braincells didn't pick up on this

      i think there's more to it than just muh civil war metaphor, its more general

      imo every character basically represents a facet of ireland
      colm is the artists and romantics; padraic is the simple good normal people; siobhan is the intelligentsia; dominic the youth; the minor characters are obvious
      imo the donkey represents innocence too and the banshee is just saying this is nothing new
      everything that happens to them is directly analogous to the causes and consequences of civil war
      colm is worldly and ambitious he dreams of greatness in the same way the ira wants to establish ireland on the world stage
      this worldliness has built a resentment for old ireland and simple irishness but it is that irishness that really inspires the art - by severing padraic he severs his ability to even create music and the future generation's
      when colm says he dreams of playing his song at padraic's funeral it's because he dreams it's the final statement on irishness but that wouldn't be fair on either of them because padraic doesn't deserve to die and then there would never be another musical expression of ireland
      equally padraic relies on colm to get through struggle and just light up life
      siobhan is driven away by the conflict
      dominic and the youth are the ones who really suffer because of it
      when the conflict finally resolves the ultimate result is the house has burned down, the brightest have fled, and the youth is dead
      there are other smaller things and other very obvious things (peadar) but that's the main gist as i saw it

        based break down of the subtext. I’ll admit some of this went over my head watching the movie because I’m not very knowledgeable about the Irish civil war, but this makes a lot of sense

          Anonymous

          it's just a very basic outline i don't know a huge amount about the irish civil war either but you can take it as a springboard for further interpretation

          other than that, whats wrong with taking it all at face value

          nothing it's still a fun story
          then it's just a story of a local musician who goes mad from delusions of grandeur and blames the people around him
          he finally garners the attention of other musicians through his deranged act, having always failed to have influence beyond inisherin before, and is not really as cultured as he pretends (siobhan shows him up)
          in that context, colm is a fraud
          to the point where he cuts off his own hand so that nobody will ever expect him to accomplish anything and uses padraic as a scapegoat for his own failure

          there are always certain things meant to be read more in the immediate context of the story ie the characters etc and other things more about the analogy imo this film leans heavily towards the latter
          however a good story should work on both levels if it can't stand on it's own without the analogy it's bad (see jordan peel)
          farell and gleeson are always fun to watch and farell looks so perfectly irish it's comical

          it's a cyclical thing and i also think interfighting is a very significant part of the irish personality

          from my knowledge of irish history, there has never really a unified irish state of any description rather a series of local rulers but there was still always an idea of ireland as it's own entity which is quite curious
          padraic saying he doesn't even see why policemen are necessary at all highlights this: does ireland need a state? it never had one before and the state only functions to abuse the youth and it's own power
          to be irish is not defined by those sort of things and padraic doesn't even understand what they're fighting about seeing it as just childish and wasteful
          when the banshee says she prays neither padraic nor siobhan are the ones who die it's because they are really the bedrock of ireland: padraic is the irish personality so to speak but without siobhan, who is the mind, he reduces himself to a barn animal
          that said, siobhan's leaving for the mainland can be read as a disagreement with this assessment and she implores padraic to come with her
          the new irish free state does bring with it new opportunities for ireland the question is does it come at the cost of what it means to be irish (padraic)
          which if we look at recent irish history i think there's a strong argument to be made that yes a lot of that character has been lost
          the characters abandoning the church is one part of that but i do think the film has some contempt for the church
          for dominic it never offered anything but then the youth is always rebellious

          i love this film i could talk about it for hours it's easily the best new film i've seen for years

          i had to post just to say i enjoyed it

          thanks it's nice to know that i'm not totally off base

          you could suppose that padraic is literally stifling colm i mean he does burn down his house, send away his students, and drive him to self mutilation
          padraic isn't a counter revolutionary he is simply apathetic to anything beyond daily life ie the lumpen
          however in the context of the story that really doesn't make much sense - colm has as much time as it takes padraic to do his job to create music and he could quite easily avoid him if he really wanted to
          moreover he has ample time to listen to other characters prattle away: he even finds time to fraternise with the violent child molesting thug peadar
          it makes much more sense in the story context that padraic is a scapegoat for his failings and i would say that (of course i would say this since i'm english) there is something of an inferiority and victim complex to the irish
          colm blames the complacent simple padraic for his own failure to achieve greatness just as revolutionaries resented lumpen pacifists and fraternised with thugs who didn't care what side they were fighting for as long as they were fighting, which peadar almost literally says
          again though i really do think that padraic is the sympathetic character and that the point is what it is to be irish can't really be fought over neither is it beholden to the rest of the world and that fighting only causes strife
          as an aside and counter point, i think mrs mccormick represents irish history and there's something to be said for how the characters literally hide from her

      This. Mentally ill people will often hurt the ones they love the most as a subliminal cry for help. Padraic eventually figured this out and cured Colm.

    Friendship is a nice thing to have, but if you become cynical enough, you'll realize it's a barter system, you have to have something to offer.
    I've been alone most of my life, and that is one of the reasons I'm pushing myself forward, and it's working so far.
    Some people are already motivated and interesting without ever having to think about it this way but I wasn't like that

      It's only a barter system if you think of it as a barter system. There is give and take but it is nowhere nearly as concrete as a set of transactions. It's a natural form that arises from any relationship.
