Hi Paul, I’m from Delano California - a small city between Los Angeles and Fresno in central California. I met Arthur shields through his daughter christine at their then home in Santa barbara. He showed us all his Oscar’s and shared a few stories of his past times. His daughter was a strong supporter of Cesar Chavez and the grape boycott. I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet him and many other movie stars! I will always remember him as I watch some of his movies from time to time - especially National Velvet! My daughter will also have great memories of him as he held her in his arms when she was just months old! The shields family- great hostesses, great memories! Great video btw! God bless you! From Peggy S. Moreno. An old family friend.
The Quiet Man is my dad's favourite movie, and it's a bit of a family classic we watch a few times a year... We're taking a trip to Ireland this fall, and maybe if we have time in Dublin, I'll mention this to my dad and we can stop by to pay our respects. Thanks for showing this.
Hi Paul lovely video never heard of these guys but I do remember national celvet one of my favourite films how lovely to be buried together thankyou Paul 💕😊
Very nice video. I'm glad you clarified this for me, seeing Arthur I'd think he looks so much like Barry Fitzgerald Thanks so much!! God rest their souls...My last name is Shields, my daughter looked into the heritage and my great-grandfather John Shields was from Ireland and I've been told my name isn't Irish. My Mother was a Mc Kendrick, I'm Scotch Irish 🍻☘️💚🍀
Thank you Paul. How Green is my Valley is one of my favourite films, but I never associate or focused on those two, or that they were brothers. Thank you so very much, I'll pay more attention next time this film is shown. Thanks for the film history of these gifted brothers. Was anyone of them married? or did I miss that? Very much appreciated Paul, thanks again.

Thank you very much
Did not know or had not heard of them but RIP lads ❤❤ any chance of George Best??? 😊 till the next one 😊
Yes George Best. 😊 Please, Paul. Thanks. 😊
Let not compare George Best, of 4 movies, to Shields and Fitzgerald. Nothing at all comparable.
Dermot Morgan "father Ted" his ashes are buried in deans Grange
Barry and Arthur were fine actors - stole scenes from many a movie star
