G-MANN ◊ 2012-06-10 22:38	Used by Michael Collins (Liam Neeson) and his name in various scenes. Possibly the most used car in the film. From IMDB, the Goofs page for this film: Quote The car that de Valera gets into after arriving by boat has the registration 15 D 1, which indicates that although it is a 1915 car, it was imported and registered in Dublin as a historic vehicle sometime after 1987. An original Dublin registration of the time would be in the format IK 1234. -- Last edit: 2012-06-17 21:05:14

The occupation began when 200 militants of the Anti-Treaty IRA along with O'Connor as their spokesman begun seizing the Four Courts Buildings and other key buildings in Central Dublin as an attempt to provoke another war with the British Government to achieve an "Irish Republic" rather than an "Irish Free State". The downfall of the occupation started on the afternoon of the 22nd June 1922 when the British Field Marshal Sir Henry Hughes Wilson was shot and killed by members of the Anti-Treaty IRA London Brigade, Reginald Dunne and Joseph O'Sullivan on the doorstep of his home in London. Sir Wilson was also the security adviser to James Craig who served as the first Prime Minister of Northern Ireland from the 7th June 1921 to the 24th November 1940. Four days after the assassination of Sir Wilson on the 26th June 1922, Anti-Treaty forces occupying the Four Courts Building had kidnapped an Irish National Army General Jeremiah "JJ Ginger" O'Connell, prompting Collins and the Irish National Army to accept help from the British Government who in turn provided two 18-pounder field artillery to end the Anti-Treaty forces' occupation of the Four Courts Building. -- Last edit: 2024-11-30 08:41:06
