If you loved The Boxer, try The Secret Scripture
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Jim Sheridan, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Boxer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Secret Scripture is
An elderly woman’s scribbled memoir becomes the only escape from her locked ward in a decaying Irish asylum. Her past—full of love and strife—mirrors the nation’s own rough decades. The film’s sepia tones match its dusty despair.
