Lighthearted and nostalgic work by Ford, focusing on his lifelong affection for Ireland. Narrated by Tyrone Power, the film presents three separate stories of life in the old country. Most of the action passes pleasantly enough, with lots of local color and an underlying warm sentiment for the land. A nice film, if a bit unremarkable in Ford's oeuvre.
