The Rising of the Moon Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's well-produced and well-acted, but never moving and a wee bit too stagy.
Film Culture
Jonas Mekas
John Ford has declared this his best film. Though very far from being that, The Rising of the Moon is an important work in Ford's very uneven career.
