    Nope.

    All four remaining films are from the 2000's.

    3 - Has a number in the title.
    4 - Oscar nominated actor doesn't speak English in this one.
    5 - Set in Cork in the 80's.
    6 - Features Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

    Irish Film from late 2000's. Set in late 80's Cork. Soundtrack by singer from famous Irish band. The writer has a new animated film coming out soon, hopefully.

    I've tracked it down and it is "My Brothers"

    it's from 2010

    it's about a midlands family travelling to Ballybunion so I don't see how it's set in Cork?

    The Music was by a Richard James who afaik is Welsh

    Assumed it was set in Cork as it was filmed in Cork, the actors are from Cork and the writer based it on his own childhood which was in Cork. Gary Lightbody did some of the songs on the soundtrack which is what I was referring to.

    No need to get so snippy about it.

    not being snippy...just setting out how it was difficult to identify it from your clues

    fair enough about Gary Lightbody but he isn't mentioned in any of the blurb I found about the film

    Well, it is "Guess The Screenshot" not "Guess The Film From The Clues" ;)

    Pretty sure my clues were right anyway, maybe the Lightbody one should have been worded better.

    Paris features in both Identity (heavily) and Ultimatum (not all that much tbh).

    Complete guess - is it Ronin?
