What is an Irish film? One set in Ireland? One with an Irish actor in it? One made in Ireland? One made by Irish people?

was wondering the same thing

Other than Liam Neeson and Finbarr Furey - Does Gangs of New York fit any of the above ?

In fact if that qualifies schindlers list or the ususal Suspects or maybe some James Bond would be contenders
