REVIEW NewYorkTimes: 5 out of 5 Stars
Review Summary
A semi-fantasy with sociological overtones, The Luck of the Irish stars Tyrone Power as an American journalist named Stephen Fitzgerald visiting the home of his ancestors in Ireland.
Power encounters a jolly old man (Cecil Kellaway) who claims to be a leprechaun -- and proves
it to the journalist's satisfaction. The leprechaun trails Stephen to New York, smooths the
path of romance between Stephen and lovely Nora (Anne Baxter), and watches in dismay as
Stephen becomes the tool of a quasi-fascistic publisher. The journalist comes to his senses
thanks to the leprechaun's intervention and goes to work for a more liberal publication.
He heads back to Ireland with new wife, Nora, and the beneficent leprechaun. The Luck of
the Irish was based on a novel by Guy and Constance Jones, who probably would have been
blacklisted when the political winds of Hollywood shifted a few years later.
