BERTIE Ahern may have spent last week wooing Bollywood directors to film in Ireland but they may first want to learn a lesson from Neil Jordan's Breakfast on Pluto. The Irishman's attention to detail in re-creating 1970s' London while filming on the streets of Belfast has to be commended.
But Cutting Edge noticed one major blooper in a scene from Jordan's adaptation of Patrick McCabe's novel. As Cillian Murphy's character, Kitten Braiden, walks down a street in the Stranmillis area of Belfast (the London street where his mother lives in the film) cars from the era line the street . . . and it really looks like London in the 1970s.
That is, until a modern Ulsterbus Translink bus drives past in the background.
