Queit Man Gaelic Scene

Best scene in the movie. Apologize for poor quality. This is one of the only time Maureen actually spoke Irish on film. She's a fluent speaker and a great beauty to see.

in her auto biography called 'tis' she admits to knowing only few words in irish and that they just pretended to speak irish making up gibberish so people that claim they understand wat shes sayin are hilarious!!

@HarrySG1 ". She is a fluent Irish Gaelic speaker and used this in her films The Long Gray Line, The Quiet Man and most recently in Only the Lonely. "

She's talking about how she made her husband sleep on the floor in the "sleeping bag" on their wedding night. :O

Come on the Irish. Maureen O'Hara is a living legend.She done us proud on this one.With my leaving cert honours irish i could actually understand what she was saying!!

[manictatter]

Yes. This is an amazing movie. Maureen Ohara... I am speechless

Everyone knows a sleeping bag is a "mala codlata" Kate!

It's not Gaelic it's Gaeilge. Gaelic is a group of languages. Maureen is talking Irish in that scene at least from the few words I could hear as the sound is bad.

@ShamrockerIRA Ireland may be a poor country God help us,But here a man sleeps in a bed and not a bag. :)
