I do not pay any license, i get my information on the run, but I would be happy to receive most brilliant short films like those, they have got the quality of the best quality gold
I worked in that cottage of Michael O’Malley in 1992 for his American widow. He is buried on the height behind his cottage. My uncle is buried on Clare island . I also have cousins who were born in London but raised in Clare island. Their mum is originally from there.
He was way ahead of his time, we used to worship and appreciate the land, trees, plants and animals. There is no relationship now. Its all how much can be made off it.
I've just seen this now,I was 18+my friend who was the same age had left school and headed to Clare island,Fiona my school friend knew Michael Joe we stayed in his house for a month in the summer of 82, I only seen him once when I was there,but I have to say he was a very private person,Clare Island is a beautiful part of the west of Ireland, have to say that was a great summer i never forgot, I never knew Michael Joe was a well know man,I don't no if he is alive or dead if he has departed this earth" rest in peace Michael,god bless you,amen💖👍,
Seemed a very intelligent man very true when ho spoke about the government at the time turning farms into a business instead of a way of life and that is what did and has become sad to see small Farmer's been squeeze out 🚜
Looks like paradise 😍 love ❤ to live on an island city life has always been a struggle for me I lived outside Dingle years ago, I dont know why I came back to Dublin I must have been completely mad
At first, I thought that this house was gone to the Dogs but as the camera zoomed out it showed a Donkey printed on the front left side of the house. What a heavenly place to live, what a wise, thoughtful, kind, understanding and highly intelligent man Michael Joe O’Malley is/was, totally in tune with mother earth. He brews his own beer and makes his own wine, He could be my 2nd cousin, I brew pure PoitínI, I will have to get in touch with this man.
One summer evening in 1981, Michael Joe and a friend (despite "engine trouble," he said), rowed a currach to The George, the pub that operated in a wing at Curraun House, at the other side of the mouth of Clew Bay. (Search RUclips for the house to get the idea of its location.) I was among a dozen Americans staying there to study the Irish language and music. Watching one New Yorker with a harp and another with a flute, he asked me "Is it a 'Roots' sort of thing?" I agreed it was, and told Michael Joe I was there studying music and ethnicity, for a degree in anthropology. "Anthropology, is it?" he said to me, "I was always fond of reading Margaret Mead, but what do you think of Claude Levi-Strauss and 'structuralism'?" I forget whether I admitted I hadn't read much of him yet. A week or two later someone hired a boat and a group of us were able to visit Mr. O'Malley's house on Clare Island for a few precious hours. "His house is full of books," the narrator of this film says. True enough. Someone handed me a book while I was there, silently pointing out that it was signed to him by its author, Samuel Beckett.
'You Learn Yourself ' how wise and how true.Answering only what is Necessary, I understand this guy totally having retreated to the hills and bogs of Co Mayo for 4 years to loose all the UN necessary nonsense , we need more people to walk away from all the lunacy and then reality could thrive .
My experience of Irish men is that they are very considered and succinct with their answers and usually come to a logic you can’t argue with. I love their way of thinking and the way they talk at a gentle pace unhurried by the world at large. Humble, generous people. And the accents are delightful.
Sorry guys, Ireland isnt as gullible as it used to be. There is a God like force within the universe alright, but it has nothing to do with Jewish Gods or Rome.
Hopefully the Current Government of Ireland Realises what the Consequences of Poor Opportunity are. Hopefully They are Now Genuinely Pro Human IQ. Go Ireland Go.
Yep Took this new profile picture in the Blue ridge mountains just the other day. Working for my boss and getting my family a Christmas tree. The climb the hill way. The let Jesus wrestle ya up the hill way. For some Holy Spirit! Yep. You wouldn't believe the things people might mistake for a good climbing shillelagh in super market trinket isles. Makes me wince just thinking about it. Not the employees fault, but Christ preserve them if they mistake those pieces of junk. The Christmas Tree lot and the family who work it are great though. I used the butt of the Christmas Tree as a climbing shillelagh. Because I'm a real boy. HahahahaHa! ❤️🤜❤️☦️🤛❤️
This is a gem. I wouldn’t mind paying the tv license if they had quality stuff like this on.

The man with all the correct answers,
Glorious just Glorious we were so much more in the past we are utterly lost now
Wonderful, a wise man . His house is now the Yoga centre on Clare Island, I had the good fortune of going there to study twenty or so years ago.
Soul: crunched
Love this and now it will last forever on the internet hopefully and the camera is great quality
This is amazing i have mayo blood in my veins as well and have visited the county on a few occasions and it's a lovely place.

the old Irishman always thinks before he answers.
Everone should do that, rather than speaking first and thinking later, better to think first

Well you can visit his grave anyway
@@edmundpower1250 Yes i will do some day
Very interesting!
What a fabulous moustache
Sad to see that industrial farming is now the norm here in Ireland. We have lost respect for the land.
my husband is related to the omalleys from clare island and used to visit as a child his name is thomas ogrady
Brilliant man
He looks a lot like my Dad. My great-father came from Clare Island to Chicago. My GGgrandmother was an O'Malley.

Thanks youtube for auto-generated subtitles.
Anymore?
Wonder how old he was then?
60.... Michael-jo O'Malley 1914-1988
@@grahamwishart4832 does not look it to be fair .............no bad man to be shearing sheep at 60 .......
👍👍👍
TOP MAN.
I can tell your an educated man ..... yes I went to school until I was 12 :-/
The lady interviewing him is having a 😂 laugh ❤️ her sundowners wat happened to her
Isolation is the gift, all the rest is a test of your endurance.
Got a bit sad at the very end there!
Lovely fella. If that old house is now a yoga retreat, very sad indeed. Ireland's Christian culture being decimated
Hail Glorious Roman Catholic Saints And Martyrs Of Éireann.☘🇮🇪
