"★★★★★ – A celebration of the independent spirit, a fascinating study of hard-learned (and earned) artistry... Blue Road gives the late Edna O'Brien her big-screen due and then some" – RTE


"★★★★ – engaging study of a life less ordinary" – Guardian


While her books were banned and burned in her native Ireland, in London and New York Edna O’Brien had illicit love affairs, hosted star-studded parties, and made and lost a fortune. In her final year, Edna shared her diaries - read aloud in the film by Irish actor Jessie Buckley - and gave one last interview about her extraordinary life to filmmaker Sinéad O'Shea.
