Movie
The Butcher Boy
Synopsis
Francie Brady is a young boy growing up in Dublin in the early 1960s, where his life is dominated by his active imagination and his best friend Joe. But beneath this benign surface lurks a troubled soul; his father is an embittered alcoholic, his mother is emotionally unstable and periodically ends up in the local mental hospital (or as she calls it, "the garage"), and their next-door neighbour, Mrs. Nugent often rants that the Bradys are "pigs" not fit to live with.
