This is basically a succession of musical numbers with a semblance of a plot attached.Lots of Irish acts including Lucan and Macshane who have a small spot.In it Lucan,as usual complains that Kitty has been staying out till all hours.They come up on the stage.Kitty says she is going to dance a jig.However she can't because she has hurt her knee.She sits down onto a chair.There is a close up of Lucan turning a dummy leg around,she stands up fully cured and dances a jig.As for the rest the eponymous lead takes orphan children to her aunts in Item and.There she meets possible suitors.There is also a rather dull story to do with horses.

"Can I take the kittens to the sea?"

Warning: Spoilers
Losing most of my chances to view things this week thanks to parties with friends I decided to get back on track this weekend with film viewing. Finding a second British Musical box set from Network,I got set to meet Kathleen Mavourneen.
The plot:
After living in Liverpool for years, Kathleen O'Moore decides to move back to Ireland. While she meets up with family,O'Moore catches the eye of singer Michael Rooney and a wealthy landowner. As O'Moore gets on tracks with a love triangle, a horse racing scandal goes off the tracks for Rooney.
View on the film:
Whilst the picture itself is pretty clear, Network leave the soundtrack with a muffled quality,which makes some of the dialogue tough to hear. Going deep into rural Ireland, director Norman Lee misses the comedic footing he found for A Political Party,with a rickety stage-bound atmosphere,of unsteady shots that creek under the floorboards,that leave the Musical numbers in a bare bones state. Galloping in their adaptation, the screenplay by John Glen and Marjorie Deans fail to get any toes tapping,as the plodding love Michael Rooney has fails to get past Kathleen's starting line
