An underseen Irish gangster thriller is among the movies on TV tonight

It's got a 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

There are some belters on this evening, but our pick of the bunch is an underseen Irish gangster thriller - Calm With Horses.

The 2019 crime flick stars Barry Keoghan and Cosmo Jarvis and is set in the west of Ireland.

It focuses on a former boxer called Douglas (Jarvis) who cares for his autistic son while working as an enforcer for a family of drug dealers.

Keoghan's character Dymphna, a cousin of the crime family, is brought in as Douglas' handler and oversees the enforcer's darkening descent into brutal violence, while he grapples with trying to care for his son's needs.

The film has been praised for its lead performance from Jarvis, who can most recently be seen in Disney's Shogun, its incredible score and sound design and its direction from first-time feature filmmaker Nick Rowland.

Calm With Horses serves us up a gritty crime film that weighs up violence with deeper emotional themes, all set amongst the gloomy backdrop of western Ireland, and is airing on Film Four at 11.35pm tonight.
