Denis Lehane: Glenroe and The Field taught me more about farming than any classroom
Yerra The Bull was far from perfect. But what makes him so special in farming is his passion for the land... Richard Harris in the 1990 movie version of John B Keane's 'The Field'.
Farming for me, was learned, not from fancy books or from the wise words of a Teagasc adviser.
No. I learned my farming the hard way. I learned it from TV, the movies and idle chat after Mass on a Sunday morning.
