FX Series 'Say Nothing' Explores The Troubles

The FX limited series 'Say Nothing' adapts Patrick Radden Keefe's acclaimed book chronicling the complex and violent history of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. The narrative centers on the 1972 abduction of Jean McConville, a mother of ten, by the IRA, an event that shaped the lives of many, including Dolours and Marian Price, who became radicalized amid the conflict. Through nine episodes, the show explores the Price sisters' transformation from peaceful demonstrators to IRA members, as well as the rise of Gerry Adams, leader of Sinn Féin, who has long denied IRA involvement. The series aims to illuminate the high cost of violence on both the fighters and the communities they claimed to protect. 'Say Nothing' is set to premiere on Hulu on November 14, 2024, and delves into themes of regret, radicalism, and the legacy of the Troubles. The anticipation for the series remains high despite limited promotional efforts from FX and Hulu.
