Title: Ultimately falls flat
Review: This is a fine example of a great concept falling flat. Basically you have an Irish narrator telling different tales of Irish folklore. He does so in a jovial manner with a brisk Irish accent.Meanwhile, all we see on the screen are shots of countryside, castles, and occasional revelers in a pub or somewhere.Although the stories are interesting, the scenery is lovely, and the music is enchanting, none of it really seems to fit together. And it definitely is not conducive to an enjoyable DVD watching experience.I agree with the reviewer who said a book of photography and a CD of stories would have served the same purpose, and probably would have been more enjoyable becuase you could control which pictures to look at when you wanted. This DVD is really not worth watching unless you're very very interested in Irish folklore and have nowhere else to go to hear stories.
