I watched The Quiet Man today and I have seen this movie over 1 million times but I noticed something today! It made me laugh… kind of a lot!
What I noticed has to do with the boozer who is the matchmaker, Michaleen Oge Flynn. what I noticed is just after Sean Thorton (John Wayne) shakes hands with well Dannaher, he is welcomed to the town but all the other guys. But what I noticed when the bartender is pouring drinks for everyone, Michaleen takes three of the field glasses in a row that leaves John Wayne with nothing and that made me laugh probably more than it should have because I just noticed it! I’ve laughed at all of his comments before about Maureen O’Hara having a steady hand and the fact that,
“When [he]drinks water, [he] drinks water and when [he] drinks whiskey, [he] drinks whiskey.”

hi love this movie for so many reasons but some thing I have thought about in the past three days is that I still REALLY wish I was born an Irish redhead! But, since that did not happen nor will it ever. I will just watch these movies a bunch of times in a row (especially during March which is the triple threat of being my Birthday Month, being MS Awareness Month, and being St. Patrick’s Day!)
