Irish film director and screenwriter best known for My Left Foot (1989), In the Name of the Father (1993) and In America (2002).

Born 1949 in Dublin, Ireland. Has received multiple Academy Award nominations.

Two DeBaser reviews give a mixed picture of Jim Sheridan's recent work: Brothers is praised for its anti-war themes and performances, Dream House is heavily criticized. Sheridan remains noted for character-driven dramas that tackle social and political issues.

For:Fans of character-driven drama, anti-war cinema, and psychological thrillers.

 Sheridan deserves credit for successfully using dramatic situations and moments of simple intimacy to ultimately shatter the "American dream" without moralizing.
