10 Dates with Mad Mary

‘Mad’ Mary McArdle is 25 and having some trouble readjusting to life out of prison. She drinks, she hangs around the local teenagers to whom she’s a celebrity, and she tries not to start any more fights. This is a very simple character study, but it’s brilliantly done. As played by the fearsome, charismatic Caoilfhionn Dunne, Mary is endlessly watchable: at once vulnerable and frightening, foulmouthed, and at times extremely funny.
