Michael Collins - opens with the 1916 Easter uprising in Dublin. The bullet
holes can still be found in the columns of the GPO, General Post Office. Watch the movie

 The Quiet Man - The Duke, John Wayne stars with Maureen O'Hara. John Wayne plays a retired boxer returning from the U.S. to Inis Free to live the quiet life when he is taken with the looks of Maureen O'Hara. Irish sites used are Connemara, Cong and parts of the southwest. Visit the replica of the Quiet Man's House in Maam's Cross, Galway. You'll have to visit Killarney, Co. Kerry to take a jaunting cart ride just like John Wayne & Maureen O'Hara.
