Facts about
The movie was released one year after the copyrights expired on the stories by Herminie Templeton Kavanagh.
In the original release, there were numerous asides where the Irish characters would speak in Munster Gaelic. Darby counts off "aon, dó, trí, ceathair" before playing the Fox Chase; several times King Brian rallies the hunt with a cry of "Ar aghaidh linn! (ahead with us!)" and so on. A later version had most of these lines redubbed in English.
