Darby o Gill is not Irish to the core. No offence to people but i really dont like people thinking these kind of movies depict irish life. I usually get asked do Irish people live in thatched cottages and what not (unfortunately for this conversation the only Irish person i have ever known who lives in a thatch cottage was my ex girlfriend) she has moved into a bigger house now though.
Darby O'Gill touched on several Irish folktales. Plus it was chocked full of blarney, and if that ain't Irish, what is?
