“The Secret Scripture” has a handsome look, and Sheridan’s history directing films like “In the Name of the Father” and “The Boxer” certainly suggests that he’s the right man for a story about the longstanding tensions between Ireland and England — and the even rougher relationship between hard-line Catholics and free-thinking strays.

It doesn’t take too long for Jim Sheridan’s period romance “The Secret Scripture” to contort itself into a befuddlingly bungled mess.
