Outstanding film by David Lean about a young woman's desire to find fulfillment in a small Irish village occupied by the British. The townspeople reminded me of those in "Zorba the Greek." At times they were frightening, as when the tradition of men kissing the bride after the wedding begins to get out of hand. At other times they were courageous and passionate, as when they braved a storm to support a cause. Beautiful scenery, esp of the mountains and of the sea during a storm. The one drawback was the music, which was overwrought. Extras were a bonus.
