The Quiet Man...Happy St. Patrick's Day...

Happy St.Patricks Day to all...

One of my absolute favorite movies

is highly appropriate for today....

The Quiet Man

starring John Wayne

and

Maureen O'Hara

I don't remember when I first watched this movie

but I absolutely love it!

Truly funny characters

and John Wayne in a non western/war hero role

Romantic comedy

a bit Un-PC for now-a-days

(but what the hey)

This movie was made in 1952

Even at almost 60 years old,

there is still a huge following of fans for it.

People make pilgrimages to

the actual sites where the movie was filmed throughout

Ireland / Innisfree

People flock to this cottage for photo ops

There are special tours just to see these landmarks

People like to reenact scenes from the movie

and have photos taken of their antics

The only other movie I know of people like to reenact like this

is the Rocky Horror Picture Show

60 years later

this may be the best movie you've never seen...

So if you can check it out!

Let me know what you think!

In the meantime
Happy St.Patricks Day!
