  1. According to some people I know who worked in the film and tv production industry in Ireland, this film was starting point for a lot of people in the industry. A lot learned the skills needed here and then got other jobs, not just actors: assistant directors, set and costume design, camera and lightning work. Just like how American Tail being animated here helped create an small cartoon animation industry.

  2. There was a bar in Waterford called the Reg, right next to Reginald’s tower. They had the suits of armour, swords, axes etc from the movie.

    They also had some posters from LOTR. would have been late 80s early 90s.

    From memory, John Boorman made the movie as he couldn’t get the greenlight for making LOTR.
