Although a minority language today, Irish played a significant role in Early Medieval literature and is sometimes counted with the Classical languages such as [[Greek]] and [[Latin]]. While culture seemed to be lost in Continental Europe following the fall of the [[Roman Empire]], Irish literature flourished and continued to do so until the 1600s. These days, Irish people are still very proud of their language and consider it important for the Irish identity to preserve the language.

Only a few [[Hollywood]] movies feature the Irish language and genuine Irish scenery:
*''The Quiet Man'' (filmed nearly entirely in [[Ireland]], and is the most famous Irish film)
*''Darby O'Gill and the Little People'' (1959)
*''The Wind That Shakes the Barley'' (2006)
*''The Guard'' (2011)
