Question
My wife recalls a movie about a girl who has brothers who are boxers, and
there

is a tree in their yard which leprachauns live in. She thinks that the actress
was

either Jeannie Crain or Ann Blyth. If you could possibly shed some light on
this,

you would solve a mystery which I've heard about for over 30 years.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Answer
Hi Lawrence,

The plot you describe doesn't seem to ring a bell with me.  I know Jeanne Crain never made a film with a similar storyline.  
The closest I can come to it,..a film with Ann Blyth in it, is the 1950's film called "Sally And St. Anne", in which she has two fighting Irish brothers, and believes that St. Anne has worked a miracle for her.
Hope this might help.
