Juno and the paycock
Well-known but little-seen Hitchcock movie based on the Irish play. A one-armed man hides out in a building while some crazy characters (including Joxer Daly) sing songs and argue. Creaky film with wide shots and stagy acting. But it's of strong interest and has some famous actors including Arthur Shields and Sara Allgood. Good and moving final scene.
