Here the voice over is delivered very professionally in the best reflective personal style- enormously engaging. However these tend to be personal, reflective, uncertain, whimsical etc in contrast with the authoratively stentorian commentary of the 1930s. Thankfully however contemporary documentarists have resorted to a voice over again. As a result film makers would go to almost any length to avoid a voice over. In documentary terms the historical voice over became known pejoratively as the "voice of god" around the 60s- 70s. The film's voice over commentary is perhaps a good place to begin. And let me say it clearly now we should make no mistake about this: Ireland's rulers have been begging their US masters for forgiveness for not being able to crush the protest movement. They have nothing to offer but compliance, and corruption and contrition for any acts of protest that might emerge from below. The elites of Ireland are like the elites everywhere that form the periphery of the US Empire. But another and more sensible part of me wants to repeat my old mother's favourite saying "What can you expect from a pig but a grunt". There is enough of Irish nationalism left in me to provoke a sense of deep shame and outrage at the betrayal of Irish neutrality by today's leaders of the Irish State.
Behind the use of the airport is of course the untold story of the massive corruption of the Irish elites by their American counterparts. Its recruitment of Ireland to the "Coalition of the Willing" was and is a political act. But as the Catholic Workers activist Ciaron O'Reilly points out, the US is pissing on Ireland to mark its territory. Of course these days Shannon is no longer a logistic necessity. The centre of this struggle is Shannon Airport historically of military importance as the furthest length a plane could fly from America. Its importance for the Irish lies in the fact that it deals with the current struggle to protect Irish neutrality, something btw which is enshrined in the Irish constitution.
