Stop refilling his whiskey glass for god's sake!
If a guy is causing a ruckus in a restaurant why on earth would the waiter keep on filling up his glass of whiskey? Was anybody else like "come on!"?

No, his behavior should be tolerated.
I suppose you think your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ could make life quite pleasant for you if you were in Christy's place?
IT DOESN'T WORK FOR EVERY ONE.kILLJOY

I have Cerebral Palsy, I won't say I suffer from it because I don't. People like Christy and people whom have less ability than I or even he do.
I twitch and jump now and then, and it does make me and others like me feel self-conscious and embarrassed when people stare or tut and sigh.
I'm just thankful that there are people like you who understand and don't make us feel like we shouldn't be let out. Well said.
Lesg, did you even see the movie? Or did you come here to attack people with religious nonsense you pompous jerk? I made a comment about a scene in the movie where a person is drunk and abusive and a waiter continues to serve him alcohol.
shareYeah, I saw the movie but I wouldn't have been, in any way threatened by Christy Brown in those circumstances or any, for that matter, would you?
I believe in "Live & Let Live".
Unlike Christy Brown,you will never be a Great Person, your attitude just won't allow it.
You call me pompous but you are shallow, "Holier Than Thou" and "More Pious Than Thou Art"
Good luck in Heaven...or Hell.
You forget about "Love thy neighbor as thyself"
Jesus thinks you're the lower end of the alimentary canal.
Figure that out for yourself, if you can.

As two Irishman are walking home from the Pub after it closes, one falls in a ditch beside the road. A woman exclaims "My god! That man is drunk!" To which his friend replies "No he's not! I saw him move!"
At least they didn't let him drive home.
This argument is ridiculous, I'm not a religious person, I actually thought you were the one who was "holier than thou" and "more pious than thou art", I simply thought that a guy in a movie I had just watched should not have been served alcohol while he was yelling at people in a restaurant, then you follow that thought by suggesting that I'm going to Hell. Now I can "never be a great person" because of the many character flaws you've assessed based on my opinion of a scene in the movie My Left Foot. I usually check out these message boards because it can be fun and informative, this is neither, have a good time loving your neighbor.

The whiskey glass gives the audience a tangible index of Christy's reaction to the news, and his drunkeness gives the teacher a sense of her responsibility in that now that he has been taught to express himself, he will express himself about his frustrated romantic feelings for her. It's a film, not a novel, and the audience needs to see evidence of the character's emotional status. This creates a dramatic confrontation as a film requires.
In the actual book, Christy's description of her is hagiographic.
