Irish films Song Of The Sea and The Lobster win top European film awards

What an achievement.

Irish film is in a very good place at the minute. Shortly after Saoirse Ronan won the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actress for her performance in Brooklyn, Song Of The Sea and The Lobster have picked up even more plaudits at the 2015 European Film Awards. The Oscar-nominated Song Of The Sea, from Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon, won Best European Animated Feature, while The Lobster, starring Colin Farrell, won Best European Screenwriter and Best Costume Design. https://twitter.com/EuroFilmAwards/status/675758980178829312 https://twitter.com/EuroFilmAwards/status/675800326834900993 https://twitter.com/EuroFilmAwards/status/675755657509912577 https://twitter.com/IrishFilmBoard/status/675792429350559745 If you haven't seen either of these films yet then what are you waiting for?
