Ryan's Daughter (1970)
Hauntingly beautiful .....to the eyes AND to the ears

Despite being a great fan of science-fiction/action (indeed my 'Top 10' film list would contain 7 or 8 from this genre) it is THIS film that is my No.1 favourite all-time movie.
Ryan's Daughter isn't a Dr Zhivago, or a Bridge on the River Kwai, granted...but it's still a majestic, epic film.
Beautifully filmed in a glorious location, with magical music, and a love story that is silent & subdued yet so powerful at the same time. How can anyone not be moved by it?
I find the cinematography & score combine to make it absolutely haunting. And I WILL visit the setting ONE day...
