This is a film that my Mom took me to see way back in 1959 and I recall it still. It is a greatly entertaining film dealing with leprechauns. Obviously it's set in Ireland. Look for a very young Sean Connery in this. This was several years before James Bond. The film stars Albert Sharp and Janet Munro also. There is music, magic, leprechauns and all sorts of legends involved. There are really decent special effects, especially considering this was before computer generated characters and backgrounds. All the work had to be done by hand back in the old days! I just recall the film seeming very exciting, magical and overall a lot of fun for a 12-year old boy. This was adventure at it's finest (unless you could catch an Errol Flynn flick!) and was memorable.
