Darby O'Gill and the Little People

Rating:
Summary: Disney at his scariest.
Review: This remains one of the all time best feature films from the Disney studio. An unreliable but likeable old Irishman gets in trouble with the leprechauns, causing plenty of amusing (and even scary) complications. Albert Sharpe is excellent in the title role, as is Sean Connery, in one of his earliest roles, as the handsome hero. Special effects are excellent. The hilite of the film is the banshee, which plenty of kids in 1959 (including this one) found plenty scary.

Summary: Beware the Banshee!
Review: This is a great movie to watch on St. Patrick's Day when everyone wants to be Irish. A simple peasant meets the king of the leprochauns...will he get his gold? His daughter falls in love with a very young and dashing Sean Connery! A cute family film that appeals to all ages. 5 stars!

Summary: One of the few movies that the whole family really can enjoy
Review: Oh why cant they make movies like this anymore? This is a wonderful movie and really does deserve to be called a movie that "the whole family can enjoy". This one has it all, comedy, drama, chills, suspence, singing, the whole shebang and not one wisecracking kid to be found. Not only does it feature a young suave Sean Connery but also the beautiful Janet Munro in one of the few films that she made. This movie is filled with myths and legends of Ireland and the special effects stand up to anything being made today and this one was filmed over 40 years ago! You will love this one!

Summary: Classic tale for children and adults!
Review: I saw this movie as a child, and it enchanted me. I was always fascinated by legends and mythical creatures, and when I saw this movie, the Leprechauns stole my heart. The story, the characters, the special effects, all combined into a wonderful movie. As an adult, I am still enchanted. This will always be one of my top favorites.

Summary: My Family's Favorite!

Rating:
Summary: Perfection
Review: "Perfection" is the word that comes to mind when I view this wonderful film about an old Irishman and his adventures with the Little People. Perfect directing, acting, editing, writing and special effects come together to create a magical tour-de-force that leaves the viewer with a sense of awe and appreciation for the man behind the movie, Walt Disney. Sean Connery, Albert Sharpe, Janet Munro, Estelle Winwwod, Jimmy O'Dea and Walter Fitzgerald deliver absolutely believable performances. But be warned: After seeing this movie YOU WILL BELIEVE!

Summary: Darby O'Gill and the Little People
Review: Great Disney flick. Its a hoot seeing Sean Connery in his twenties. Nice family movie. I love the old Irish legends, especially the Banshee and the Coach d'Bower. Albert Sharpe does a great job as Darby. The cinematography is beautiful. My grand kids love this movie. They are 9 and 3. Its something they can watch together.

Rating:
Summary: Truely Great Movie
Review: This is one of the greatest movie that was ever made. It has fallen into obscurity these days. I remember the first time I saw this movie at the theater, I had to climb under my chair it scared me so bad. As I have gotten older (read old) the movie gets better and better. Children these days do not even turn a hair when they see it. Friday the 13th it AINT!!!
