Breakfast on Pluto tells the
wild, rollicking story of Patrick "Kitten" Braden, a catty, beleaguered
Irish transvestite who becomes involved with the Irish Republican Army
while on a quest to reunite with his mother. Told in thirty-six short
chapters, this delirious frenzy is the second collaboration between
Neil Jordan and author and screenwriter Patrick McCabe, who gave us the
equally inventive and scatalogical The Butcher Boy. Outrageous star
Cillian Murphy shines as the "svelte gamine" Kitten, supported by the
venerable Liam Neeson as a sympathetic local priest and Jordan regular
Stephen Rea in an eccentric cameo appearance.
