Thank you, I am Albert Rogers, the elder brother of Malcolm Rogers, the "Mal Rogers" who played uncle Jimmy and was the violinist, the fiddler on the cast.
As his only appearance on movie screen, I am anxious that he be not confused with a certain other Mal Rogers.
I assert that the comparatively low budget "Titanic Town" is vastly superior, as a presentation of what humans do, to the vastly budgeted movie "Titanic",which is a romanticized tale that revolves around the ambition of one man, whose stupidity and recklessness not only cost lives, but unfairly damaged the reputation of Harland and Wolff, which built in Belfast the ship of that name.
The movie "Titanic Town" is about a peacemaker who lost a friend to the insanity of the terrorists on "her own side", the "Irish Republican Army", killed in Belfast be a stray "IRA" bullet. Its content is vastly superior to "Titanic".
Garret Fitzgerald, as Taoiseach of the Irish Republic, the "chief" or leader of the government, made some attempts to counter the accusations of the religious majority in Northern Ireland, that "Home Rule is Rome Rule" and was visited by the then current Pope, essentially asking that Ireland NOT relax the various prohibitions of the Church of Rome. I am now a citizen of the USA, but consider myself a Scot also. My brother Malcolm, who was a year old when we moved to County Down, says he's Irish.
