| Do you recognize this lass, who did have a bit of Irish mixed in with Scottish, French and English heritage? You definitely know her and may even love her! |

| Carole Landis has found an appropriate (though not terribly comfortable looking) spot to celebrate the occasion. |

| Martha Vickers has landed in the clover (or one big piece of it, anyway!) |

| Nothing short of bursting through the shamrock paper was going to keep Ava Gardner from saying hello. |

| Barbara Sharma, Ruth Buzzi and Lily Tomlin are all laughs. |

Happy St. Patrick's Poseidon. I love all the campy pictures. That is my kind of holiday. TCM had "Darby O'Gill and The Little People" on this week and I remembered seeing it as an 11 year old. There was a close up of Sean Connery and I realized in that movie seat I was not like other little boys.
Well, as usual, we're in accord. I also saw "Darby O'Gill" as a kid (though I somehow always got it confused in my head with the later "The Gnome Mobile!") and at the time, the dark, hirsute Connery made me strangely uncomfortable, yet enticed. I watched it again Sunday on TCM for the first time since and he was just unbelievably gorgeous and appealing!! HUNK for the ages, though I wish he'd had a shirtless woodchopping scene. LOL BTW, the movie's poster shows Janet Munro & him in a wagon surrounded on all sides by leprechauns and that NEVER occurs in the movie.... False advertising!
Right on, he is even more handsome in that then as James Bond, those lips! OMG the "Gnomemobile" with the Mary Poppins kids is super weird. I just found "The Three Lives Of Tommasina" with those same kids again for $1 last week. Very strange one with dead cats reincarnated. "Darby" is the best of the three without a doubt,p.s. glad I didn't have to clariy that I saw it as a rerelease, I was not 11 years old in 1959.
I'm Irish too! and Happy St Patricks to you. I hope you don't mind if I "borrow" that delicious photo of Maureen O'Hara - not seen that before!
Not at all, Michael. Have at it, and Happy St. Patrick's Day to you!
Gingerguy, I also had to have seen Darby in a rerelease, I was born in '67, child! ;-) I only SEEM even older than that... LOL Seeing Darby again makes me want to finally break down and watch Sean's movie with Lana Turner from the same general time period called "Another Time, Another Place." (Sadly in black & white.)
Only two days ago I was reading some articles about Ann Sheridan. Thanks for posting her picture. That's a crazy hat!
Happy St. Valentine's day.
