A Couple of Blaguards

A Couple of Blaguards is a bubbling stew of humor with dashes of poignancy to sharpen the flavor. Written by Frank McCourt (Angelas Ashes, Tis) and brother Malachy McCourt (A Monk Swimming), A Couple of Blaguards is a fast paced romp, the result of the McCourt brothers listening to stories of their elders which in turn tunes the ear, the eye and the tongue to give voice to even the most trivial of events. Put all this together in some half-lived, half-imagined Irish-American story and what do you get? A Couple of Blaguards, of course, an ingenious and loving recollection.. (Toronto Spectator). Produced by Steve McGraw and directed by Howard Platt.
