Daniel Day Lewis and Brenda Fricker won Oscars for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress for this exhilarating account of the life of Christy Brown, feisty Irish artist-writer who was born with cerebal palsy. Through the help of his strong-willed mother, a dedicated teacher and his own courage and determination, Christy not only learns to grapple with life and love but also develops into a brilliant painter, poet and author.
"Triumphant and Moving” The Irish Times
