Biography

Sean descend d'une famille irlandaise originaire de Cavan installée à Londres à la fin des années 1970. Tous pratiquaient la danse irlandaise et donnaient des prestations régulières lors d’événements ou de compétitions. Sean Maguire suivit cette tradition familiale depuis son plus jeune âge. Son premier rôle fut à l'âge de 5 ans, aux côtés de Laurence Olivier dans A Voyage Round My Father. À l'âge de sept ans ensuite, il joua l'un des nombreux enfants du numéro musical Every Sperm is Sacred issu du film Monty Python : Le Sens de la vie de 1983. En 1993, il rejoignit le casting du soap opera anglais EastEnders, jouant le rôle d'Aidan Brosnan, un jeune footballeur irlandais.

The film opens with a Spartan elder inspecting an ugly, talking baby (an ogre from Shrek the Third); it is abandoned to die for its deformity. A second baby, who is Vietnamese, is adopted by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Baby Leonidas is then inspected, having a six-pack, biceps and beard from birth. He is accepted as a Spartan and prepared for kinghood through his childhood training, from fighting his grandmother to enduring torture (a la Casino Royale). Leonidas (Sean Maguire) is then cast out into the wild, and survives the harsh winter and a gangsta penguin (Happy Feet). Returning a king for his inauguration wearing a penguin skin hat, Leonidas sees Margo (Carmen Electra) erotically dancing and asks her to marry him, to which she responds by giving him the combination to her chastity belt.

The film follows the story of an anguished English-born Pittsburgh high school teacher (Irons) in 1974 going through a reassessment of his life. His method is to narrate his life to his class and interweave three generations of his family's history. The film portrays the history teacher's narrative in the form of flashbacks to tell the story of a teenage boy and his mentally challenged older brother living in The Fens of England with their widowed father. In an opening scene the teacher's childless wife (Cusack) takes a child from a supermarket and believes it to be hers. The teacher explains to his class how he and his wife had a teenage romance which led to a disastrous abortion that left her infertile. The teacher is tortured by the guilt of this as well as the jealousy he demonstrated to his older brother when he suspected his girlfriend's child was his brother's. The girl's flirtation with the older brother sets off events that lead to the older boy's death by drowning. A side-theme is the teacher's grandfather, who was a successful brewer and who fathered with his daughter the narrator's older brother. The film ends with the teacher's dismissal from his school and a possible renewal of his relationship with his wife.
