...how is Devereux the family name of an Irish peasant?

And did Senora Katy Jurado remind anyone of Michelle Obama?

My main problem with this film is that no justification for the way that Matthew treats his sons - and why Joe is favoured - is broached, especially given that he's shown to be an affectionate husband.

The name Devereux is not uncommon in Ireland, especially in Wexford. It arrived in Ireland with the Normans in the 1170's.
