Watch The Secret of Roan Inish Movie Online Streaming Megashare Without Downloading The magic of folklore forms the basis of this Irish tale by writer-director John Sayles. Adapted from the book Secret of the Ron Mor Skerry, the 1940s story is told from the point-of-view of Fiona (Jeni Courtney), a young girl sent to live with her grandparents in an Irish fishing town. Her grandfather weaves grand stories about the family's evacuation from their home on the tiny island of Roan Inish and about his great-great grandfather, who once cheated death at the hands of the unforgiving sea. As she meets other villagers, Fiona hears even more personal stories about an uncle who married a beautiful, part-human/ part-seal and about how the sea stole her baby brother during the departure from Roan Inish. Later, Fiona believes that she has found Jamie romping in the grass on Roan Inish, and she must convince the family of her vision. While Roan Inish has the feel of a family film, it shares with other Sayles works a character who learns history through storytelling, such as Sam Deeds in Lone Star (1996) and Dr. Fuentes in Men with Guns (1997). Sayles builds cohesive stories from multiple voices, showing the importance of oral history and indicating that learning the past can alter the future. ~ Norm Schrager, Rovi

Review For The Secret of Roan Inish
The rhythms are placid and the camerawork (by Haskell Wexler) is simple and unfussy. The film's a charm.
Bruce Diones-New Yorker

John Sayles' latest marks his entry into family-pic terrain, a crossing that draws pleasant but unexciting results.
Dennis Harvey-Variety

Moving from passion fish to mystical seals, versatile filmmaker John Sayles' latest is a first-rate, all-ages fairy tale steeped in Irish folklore.
Michael Rechtshaffen-Hollywood Reporter

This is all rather low-key and uninsistent, but the settings are gorgeous, and Haskell Wexler's cinematography makes the most of them.
Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader

Tales within tales, a subtle sense of economic and social realities, fine landscape photography and strong performances make for an engrossing, unusual fantasy.
Geoff Andrew-Time Out

One of Mr. Sayles's artistic strengths (and commercial liabilities) is his refusal to make movies that knock you over the head with larger-than-life characters and emotions.
Stephen Holden-New York Times

It's family entertainment in the best sense of the term.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide

One of his most accomplished movies, this is Sayles' corrective fable to a genre thas has favored male protags, exploring another outsider character, a young girl alone in the world.
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com

A beautifully told faerie tale
Douglas Pratt-DVDLaser

Lyrical and lovely.
Nell Minow-Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies

Unusually sweet Sayles tale.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-San Francisco Examiner

Magical fable from writer-director John Sayles is a departure -- and a great success.
James Rocchi-Netflix

A lovely and lyrical drama about the spiritual longing for home and the deep meanings that can be conveyed by family stories.
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice

Sayles, as always, delivers the goods.
Bob Bloom-Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

As menacing and wondrous as films get.
Walter Chaw-Film Freak Central
