The Irishman is an Australian 1978 romantic drama film adapted for the screen from Elizabeth OConners novel and directed by Donald Crombie. Old-time horse wagoner Paddy Doolan refuses to accept the challenge posed by motor transport in the early 1920s.

Production
The movie was budgeted at $767,000 but went $800,000 over. It was filmed in May through to July in 1977.
Crombie described his work on the film as a "labour of love".
Release
The film was a disappointment at the box office. Crombie later said he thought it was five to ten minutes too long, and suffered from being released soon after The Mango Tree, another coming of age period movie set in Queensland, when there was a backlash against period films.
