Loved her films, especially those with John Wayne.

An actual Hollywood legend.  I loved her in a movie with John Candy and Anthony Quinn.....can't remember the name of it, but she played a crusty Irish overprotective mother.  What an actress.  Sad to hear of her passing.


 

I, too, liked this movie and have seen it a few times over the years.

Re: Maureen O'Hara has passed

Reading more of her bio on the internet, they said that she passed away in her sleep, with her family near her, and that they were listening to music from The Quiet Man.  I love that music.  Does anyone know of a source of that soundtrack other than the movie itself?  I would love to have it.

I just Googled 'The Quiet Man Soundtrack' and got THIS at Amazon.  Seems it's available at a number of places.  HTH

 

You can find almost anything at Google.  Smiley Happy

Re: Maureen O'Hara has passed

IMO, I thought she was the most beautiful and talented of all the foreign actresses, ie Gina, Sophia, Zsa Zsa, and including our own Grace Kelly.  But that's just my opinion.  At least we have all her treasured movies.  On FB, CBS Sunday Morning show mentioned her.  Perhaps they will be doing a segment on her tomorrow.  chuid eile i síocháin, Maureen.

She was a lovely actress.  She provided us with many hours of entertainment.

 

Now she's in Heaven with all of the other great entertainers.

Re: Maureen O'Hara has passed

Incredible actress, and such a beauty.  I've only seen a few of her films: Miracle on 34th Street, Spencer's Mountain, and The Christmas Box.  The Christmas Box is a "TV movie," but I love it, and try to catch it every holiday season.
