Ava Gardner stars in The Ballad of Tam Lin (1970), Roddy McDowall’s only film as a director. An odd but interesting and ambiguous folk horror movie inspired by a Scottish folk tale about a love triangle involving the queen of the fairies.

For the #FolktaleWeek2023 underground prompt I’ve illustrated the Sídhe, the Aos sí, the fair folk, good people, or people of the shee from Irish folklore, who live underground. You may know the banshee, or Bean sídhe or woman of the sídhe. In fact the very word Sídhe is the term for earthen mounds like the one in my #linocut and the
Aos sí are “the people of mounds.” The Sidhe evolved from a mythological people 🧵1/n
