My fave Jim Sheridan DDL flick is maybe The Boxer, which is a solidly unpretentious irish troubles movie and has a pretty beautiful soundtrack. It's also maybe the most normie DDL role, very unflashy. But he's great. As is Emily Watson.

I've hated all the pre-Code Unknown Hanekes I've seen but haven't yet tried Seventh Continent. Is it worth it if I deeply loathe Funny Games and Benny's Video?

Xxp You can understand why it's impossible for DDL to resist her and why she'd go against the bullshit domestic rules the IRA had.

I would say give it a go. Its got a lot of warmth towards it's characters compared to Funny Games.
