Plot

Three vignettes of old Irish country life, from a smuggler's escape to a village dispute and a ballad.

Sinekatalog’s take

John Ford's Irish anthology, introduced by Tyrone Power's presence in the Abbey Theatre cast, is gentle, charming and wry, a minor but affectionate film.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
