1952. That movie is almost 60 years old, and even popular amongst a younger generation. Once you've seen it, it becomes a favorite.
The Quiet Man is the perfect movie, in my opinion, because it does what a movie is supposed to do; it entertains.
Kinda like the Harry Potter series. The newest film is set to gross 140 million this weekend alone. Makes you wonder why they don’t make more movies like that.
We have foine fishin' in upstate New York and foine sof' days as well, but no Maureen O'Hara to welcome a man home to her cozy Oirish cottage after a hard day bendin' his arm at the pub. Though my tiny house, all white plastered walls and soft grey shingled - not thatched, darn it - roof, looks a little like an Irish cottage.
