Interesting facts

Beyond the Pale is a 2000 immigrant drama set in mid-1980s New York, directed by George Bazala and starring Patrick Clarke, Malachy McCourt, and Roger Davis.

Development

Beyond the Pale began its life at a table in the Film Centre Cafe in Hells Kitchen NYC in June 1996 when George Bazala and Patrick Clarke thrashed out an idea based on the life of an Irish immigrant in late 1980s New York City. The pair had just finished working together on 'Fall from Grace' a Hunter College grad thesis short film.

Bazala recalled, “We were all very anxious to see the results of our adventure in Dublin. Unfortunately, we would have to wait until February 1997, when we had raised the funds to process, sync, and transfer the film. It was mid-March before editor Michael Sullivan had completed a rough cut. We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome”.
