Directed by: Neil Jordan
Starring: Aidan Quinn, Alan Rickman, Brendan Gleeson, Ian Hart, Julia Roberts, Liam Neeson, Richard Ingram
Factual error: During one of the cabinet meetings, one of the members says Collins' brief is Minister for Intelligence, but he was actually Minister of Finance. He was, however, the IRA's Director Of Intelligence.
Michael Collins: I hate them for making hate necessary, and I'll do what I can to end it.
Trivia: Brendan Gleeson, who plays Collins' aide Liam Tobin, played Collins in the 1991 TV movie The Treaty.
