LEAVE IT TO THE IRISH is one of hundreds of cheapie, hour-long productions put out by poverty row producers Monogram Pictures and directed by the notorious William Beaudine, nicknamed 'One Shot' due to his talent for never shooting a second tape. This one's a familiar detective story in which a private investigator goes up against a liquor smuggling operation, and it has a noticeably lighter touch than usual insofar as it tries to be funny throughout, even though it never really achieves that goal. The paucity of the budget is apparent from beginning to end.
