Movie Review: The Secret of Roan Inish
Summary: 5 Stars
The DVD finally arrived after several cancelled orders and it was well worth the wait. This is a beautiful, mythical fable set in the windswept outter islands of Ireland with wonderful Celtic music throughout. Not just for children, my husband loved it as I knew he would. I sent a copy to my grand-daughter, too. Not only does it transport the viewer to a world where we can believe a selkie could really exist, it is a fine example of a strong, wise, and motivated young girl. A visually beautiful film with fabulous scenery it is highly recommended.Movie Review: you must watch this movie before you die
Summary: 5 Stars
this is my absolute favorite movie and has been ever since i was a little girl. my mother actually introduced me to this movie and since then i have become addicted to all things mythological (i probably would have gotten into it anyways, but this sped up the process). this film is subtle, yet superbly effective in giving you that evanescent, magical feeling. so many movies try to capture that evasive 'something else' but end up being fake and cheesy but this one makes the cut. it's suitable for all ages and is a definite must experience.Movie Review: Roan Inish: A wonderfully uplifting film.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Irish film, "Secret of Roan Inish", is a wonderful piece of work, for families or serious film lovers. This story of a young Irish girl's unremitting belief in magic, and nature, and the possibilities of this life, would bring a smile to even the most cynical viewer.
The film is masterfully cast, and beautifully and simply filmed. I do believe that what makes Celtic culture so magnetic and charming is its continuing love of this planet, and its deep spritual belief in magic and mystery. What a great film!
Movie Review: A Most Beautiful Film
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a visually lovely, well acted, heartwarming, whimsical movie. We all loved it- my husband and I, my teenage daughter and our six year old daughters. There's a tinge of sadness, as the little girl's mother is dead and her father doesn't take good care of her, so she goes to live with her grandparents. There isn't a lot of action. It's a quiet movie, not huge special effects or big action scenes. It has a dreamy quality. Also, the Irish accents are such a pleasure to hear!Movie Review: A Movie to Treasure!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just love this movie! What is not to love, the beautiful scenery of Ireland, a magical realism movie. A little girl goes to live with her grandparents who tell her the story of Roan Inish, and then the story comes true. She and her cousin go to the island, they refurbish the ancestral home, and she finds her long lost brother. I am half Irish and I love the tales of the old homeland. Buy this DVD, you won't be sorry! It is a real treasure for people of all ages! A must buy!
