Movie Reviews of An Irish Holiday
Movie Review: Like a warm blanket
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD has something for everyone. For those who are proclaimed affecionados of Irish culture, this gem is a treat. It provides a conglameration of some of the most influential literary figures (i.e. Frank McCourt of "Angela's Ashes") and musicians (Phil Coulter and Máire Brennan from Clannad). The participants alone make it worth having in your library.
For those who just want something for the holiday season, one would not go wrong with this presentation. The presentation volleys between some of the most traditional and regional (Irish) holiday songs and relaying scenes from a dinner where the guests relay some of their favorite Christmas memories.
Try this edition with a glass of port or an Irish coffee as the snow falls outside. I would wager you have something that will fast-become a Christmas holiday viewing tradition.
Movie Review: Like a family gathering!
Summary: 5 Stars
Those that are expecting only music should realize that Christmas is more than music........it is family, friends, sharing, and the celebration of a sacred birth. And that is what we love about this DVD........it is like we have had a wonderful evening with all!! The wonder, the feeling, the memory of many years past.....we only wish we could have been there with the warm and wonderful company, but this is as close as we may come, and we are grateful for the experience!
Merry Christmas and wonderful thoughts and wishes to all!
Movie Review: Great holiday viewing
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD was a replacement for the VHS tape I had, so I knew exactly what I was getting. The production is wonderful and anyone that is "head-over'heels" with Ireland like my family members are, must have it. It has become one of the Christmas rituals in our family ( along with Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas). All the performances are of high quality. I even enjoy watching it "off-season".Movie Review: Classic

I can almost see myself gathered around this table. Lucky Lucky people. Loved it.Movie Review: Irish Christmas show
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought this would have been about an Irish Christmas music and some of it was, but it was some sort of TV special with guests that i did not recongize and some discussion of the holidays. The music was great the discussion was boring.
