The Lass of Aughrim - Frank Patterson video free download

Dave Glo

A gem of a film. And Anjelica Huston, who is in the background for most of the movie, suddenly breaks your heart in these final scenes.

George Gwolf

The snow falling in the night outside, reminded me this beautiful movie. ..A traditional Irish song in the film: The Dead (1987), based on the same name story in the book "Dubliners" by James Joyce (I hope it's playable in your country )If you'll be the lass of AughrimAs I am taking you mean to beTell me the first tokenThat passed between you and meO don't you rememberThat night on yon lean hillWhen we both met togetherWhich I am sorry now to tellThe rain falls on my heavy locksAnd the dew wets my skin;My babe lies cold within my arms;But none will let me in

I love this movie, and watch it every Epiphany. The Huston family certainly has made its mark on American film, and this one is a favorite of the J. Houston directed ones for me. By the way, I think Anjelica should have won an Oscar for her performance at the conclusion of this movie, and also for the scene in "The Grifters" where she accidentally kills her son played by John Cusack. Very powerful.

Joseph Mitchell

In her memoir, Anjelica says that she was moved to tears in this scene looking down at her father directing from his wheelchair. He was mere months from death at this time.

Sarah Hoffer

Such a simple, yet powerful scene. And major props to that beautiful tenor, absolutely stunning!

Linh Bui

So sad, so wonderful

Antonio Muñoz

¡Los pelos como escarpias!

John Smyth

My wife and I first heard the song whilst watching the film 'The Dead '. We were transfixed by the beauty of the melody and by the rendition.

Wait. Seriously??? You've never read the short story? If you did, you would have the answer to your question.....

john smith

read 'The Dead,' James Joyce (the final four or five pages should cover it). one of the finest passages Joyce ever wrote.

Valeria De Lisio

help me in finding the music sheet/score!

Gary Pansey

It represents the "distance" between them...and it's also the first time that the husband is confronted with the ghost of her past.

Jim Lynch

She is transfixed by the song and lost in memory. He is transfixed and fascinated by her reverie. One of the most perfect moments in all of film history for me. Poignant and as full of meaning as any moment I can recall. If it doesn't speak to you as it speaks to me it is my fervent hope that something does or will. Like all great art, it transcends this drab plane for some and is senseless to some others. I admire you for asking.

Debora Kae

Wow, awesome Ty!

Dave Glo

A sad and poignant moment in this quiet, understated film. Anjelica Huston's character doesn't unfold until this scene. Then her entire presence in this story becomes understood when she tells her husband of a long lost love.

Daniel Jauri

this sceene takes part in one of the joyce's stories of the book "Dubliners"..

NatSci

One of the best scenes in movie history..
