RIP Maureen O'hara


Recommended Posts

Although many here may not know her work in films she was the finest female actor to have come from the Emerald Isle ; Quite a Gem.

She os one of my all time favorite actors. The Quiet Man is such a great film, and portrayed her best qualities.

According to a family spokesman she passed away today surrounded by loved ones whilst listening to the soundtrack from that movie.

She was fiercely independent independent and that transcended on the screen.

We will not see the likes of her again.

I just watched The Hunchback of Notre Dame on TCM last night and was thinking about her. I grew up watching films like Miracle on 34th Street and The Parent Trap and in later years, Hunchback, The Quiet Man and This Land is Mine. She really was one of the last greats of the golden age! I always thought her acting style was way ahead of its time…she was quite the lady.
