The Quiet Man--no question. But may I make a bid for "The Informer?"
I notice that "Agnes Brown", "Veronica Guerin" and "Eat The Peach" didn't make the top ten - how about a Top Twenty?
What a load of crap. This list sucks. The Commitments ? Get real...
Tanks for reminding me...Julia Roberts was tres horrible in Michael Collins. How has she lasted this long?
The Commitments better than the Quiet Man? You're not feeling well, I take it.
"Into the West" was very good. I also liked "The Secret of Roan Inis". I haven't seen the "Odd Man Out", I'll look for that.
"Some Mother's Son" & "Hunger" aren't on the list?
Some great movies on this list. "The Quiet Man" was my Fathers favorite movie, he couldn't wait to name his first son Sean. Commitments the best Irish movie, Really? It's cute, but "Once" won an Academy award. What about "Breakfast on Pluto", "The Wind that Shakes the Barley", "The Magdalyn Sisters", "Ryan's Daughter"... ;)
Where is The Boxer on this list?
The only movie I haven't seen in the top ten is "The Crying Game" I think six were great! I didn't like "The Snapper" or "Quiet Man" although let me say John Wayne and Maureen O' Hara are terrific! Could one of the directors please make a movie where Irish women are treated better than in those two? "The Field" was so heavy, it wasn't enjoyable, although Richard Harris was so great! I'm still looking forward to seeing "Ondine".
ALL WONDERFUL MOVIES....2 I HAVEN'T SEEN BUT PLAN ON SEEING ASAP...ANYTHING ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL/AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE OR FILMED THERE HAS TO BE WONDERFUL...
It is hard to believe "The Quiet Man, " was rated ony 2. I have heard time and time again (from the Irish, don't you know) that this film did/does more for Irish tourism than any film EVER did. Would appreciate you making a list of 50 Irish movies you can buy or rent in the US. Include "Michael Collins," as well as "The Winds that Shakes the Barley," and "Hennessy" (this film, though not a great one, put a story to the troubles for me).
The best Irish movie, bar none, is Odd Man Out.
I wonder why "The Informer" wasn't Included....Maybe you should have done a top 25 list instead in order to keep everyone from whining !
michael collins.......was the only movie i ever went to see were when it was over everyone in the cinema threw there popcorn in the air and shouted and whistled....i even seen a few blokes crying.....and in the name of the father was another classic.....and then the snapper for the craic
