View the 1996 movie Michael Collins staring Liam Neeson. Check your streaming services, as some may be carrying the movie currently. Otherwise, you can rent the movie on itunes, Amazon, and other sources.
In a reaction paper consisting of no less than 3 full pages, typed and double-spaced, with no wider than 1 inch margins, discuss who Michael Collins was. In your paper, consider whether Collins was a villain or a patriot. Also discuss Collins’ tactics. In particular, was the Collins model of political violence more consistent with that later developed by Carlos Marighella or by Che Guevara? Explain. Also, discuss Collins’ transition from terrorist to politician. Were the British correct to negotiate with him when he was in fact deemed a terrorist by the British government?
While the movie is generally historically accurate regarding the Irish conflict and Collins, it does take a lot of liberties in flushing out the relationships and filling in gaps. So, you are encouraged to draw upon and cite various sources of information for the paper rather than relying entirely on the movie. In citing sources, please follow APA format for citations in the body of the paper, as well as your reference list.
