Thank you¤ 2) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. "The Quiet Man" is a must for any John Wayne collection. One more piece of proof that "The Duke" was one of the most versatile actors to ever grace the stage. This DVD is a great value, the interviews are priceless, this history behind the making of this cinema classic value added. You will not go wrong by adding this to your collection.¤ 3) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. I have always loved this show. John Wayne is one of my favorite actors. These kind of movies are hard to find but, with Amazon it was no problem. Thanks¤ 4) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. This film is a classic for both John Wayne and John Ford. Perhaps it because the film echoes a great dream of the Irish - to return prosperous to the Old country of Ireland where one can live a simple life, fall in love with the most beautiful girl in the county and live out one´s years in an idyllic farm. Wayne is the American boxer who returns to encounter a spunky Irish girl (Maureen O´Hara) and her cantankerous brother (Victor MacGlaglen). The film won numerous Oscars for performance, direction, cinematography and more. This was a very personal project for John ford who was from Ireland.
¤ 5) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. I found this movie to be artistic and well presented. Mr. Ford did take some libert-ies with the landscape of Ireland, but a great film not the less.¤ 6) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 05/11/2004 Run time: 129 minutes Rating: Nr¤ 7) DVD DVD The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition) by Republic Pictures. Blarney and bliss, mixed in equal proportions. John Wayne plays an American boxer who returns to the Emerald Isle, his native land. What he finds there is a fiery prospective spouse (Maureen O´Hara) and a country greener than any Ireland seen before or since--it´s no surprise The Quiet Man won an Oscar for cinematography. It also won an Oscar for John Ford´s direction, his fourth such award. The film was a deeply personal project for Ford (whose birth name was Sean Aloysius O´Fearna), and he lavished all of his affection for the Irish landscape and Irish people on this film. He also stages perhaps the greatest donnybrook in the history of movies, an epic fistfight between Wayne and the truculent Victor McLaglen--that´s Ford´s brother, Francis, as the elderly man on his deathbed who miraculously revives when he hears word of the dustup. Barry Fitzgerald, the original Irish elf, gets the movie´s biggest laugh when he walks into the newlyweds´ bedroom the morning after their wedding, and spots a broken bed. The look on his face says everything. The Quiet Man isn´t the real Ireland, but as a delicious never-never land of Ford´s imagination, it will do very nicely. --Robert Horton¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
