Movie Reviews

Such a Gem
RQ | Columbia, MD | 02/08/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"One day in a moment of idle curiosity we wondered if The Irish R.M. was available on DVD. We had enjoyed it throughly when it was on PBS "back in the day" and thought it would be nice to be able to watch it again. We found that we had forgotten how many expressions the local Irish had used on the Major that are as funny today as when originally viewed.

It was a completely worthwhile purchase and we are getting a big kick out of it on cold winter days."
Irish R. M.

"I ordered this series for my husband, but I have enjoyed it as much if not more than he. The setting is late 19th, early 20th century and the settings in Ireland are great. The costumes accurate for the time. The Irish humor, side-splittingly funny. I recommend this series to anyone who likes travel, humor and beautiful clothes.

So Utterly Delightful.......

"
I saw this series some years back on PBS "Masterpiece Theatre". It is completely and utterly delightful. The English, Irish, Scots (so many of the people of the British Aisles - Welsh, too, I am sure) have such a wonderful gift of turning a quaint and colorful phrase. There is a scene somewhere in the series along a country roadside where a lower-class Irish bloke is attempting to be familiar in a loud and somewhat grating manner with a high-class Irish lady riding in her carriage. The lady responds to the low-class fellow in an inimitable manner that only a Brit could do. She said something to the effect that "Just because you and I are both Irish doesn't mean we're old friends". I Loved it.



And so will you."
Delightful object lessons !

"In spite of seeming bad blood between the English and Irish this series sets a tempo of what is possible if we can " just learn to get along ! " Highly recommended !"
