Three words: THE QUIET MAN
Two incredible stars: John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara
An amazing support cast, a colorful story, gorgeous scenery, rollicking music, Protestants and Catholics living and supporting each other in Innisfree, Ireland; love and passion, quaint ways, a matchmaker, a brawl that falls into the street and the most wonderful way to enter a home, "God bless all in this house!" called out as blessing as each character enters another's place of dwelling.
This Technicolor comedy love story from 1952 by director John Ford is an absolute classic you MUST watch annually! Some quotes: "A stick to beat the lovely lady?" — Head shaking, "Two women in the house - and one of them a red-head!" — "No paddy-fingers, if you please. The proprieties at all times. Hold onto your hats." — "Have the good manners not to hit the man until he's your husband and entitled to hit you back." — "Woman, Ireland may be a poor country, God help us, but here, a married man sleeps in a bed, not in a bag."
I'm watching it now…Jeanie
NOTE TO SELF: Bless all in the houses I enter today!
