Irish Film Night - Her Majesty Da Queen
Join us for our Irish Film night. Doors open at 6:30pm and the film starts at 7pm.
Her Majesty Da Queen,
The 60-minute film is a sneak peek backstage at the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade Queen Contest and captures all the humor, heartbreak, and excitement shared by over 100 young women each year as they vie for the crown. Many of Chicago’s most endearing Irish-American personalities are also featured in the film in intimate interviews during the pageant.
Her Majesty, ‘da Queen was edited from video shot at both the 2009 and 2010 queen contests. This one-hour program is a prologue to Mike Houlihan’s epic documentary Our Irish Cousins, which is currently in post-production. Our Irish Cousins was shot all over the U.S. and in Ireland, and reveals the Irish American experience in all its glory, humor, and sprit.
