Trojan Eddie (Stephen Rea), a low-level flunky in a family of Irish swindlers known as "travelers," suffers a case of torn loyalties after one of the junior members absconds with the willing young bride of the family's boss (Richard Harris)--and with the dowry money, as well. While trying to clean up the mess, Eddie also contends with his own sloppy lovelife and bleak future. A low-key riff on the well-worn theme of crime syndicate betrayal and a fascinating look into the little-known traveler lifestyle. [More]

Reviews for Trojan Eddie
This highly atmospheric film vividly brings to life the tensions and animosities of the traveller culture in rural Ireland.
It is worth seeing for the tremendous performances by the lead players .
