Wiki.

Willy Reilly and His Colleen Bawn is a 1920 Irish silent film adaptation of William Carleton's 1855 novel Willy Reilly and His Dear Colleen Bawn: A Tale Founded Upon Fact made by the Film Company of Ireland. Brian Magowan and Frances Alexander featured in the film. It is one of few films by the FCOI that remain in substantially complete form. John MacDonagh, the brother of Thomas MacDonagh, a signatory of the Proclamation of the Irish Republic in 1916, was the films director and played Tom the Fool under the pseudonym Richard Sheridan. The film concerns religious tolerance and the "triumph of love across the sectarian divide."
