The Quiet Man
"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.

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
A Great John Wayne Performance in a Delightful Film
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.
What film making is about...
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.
The Quiet Man
This movie has always been a favorite of my husband and myself. We were really pleased with the quality and all of the special features!!! Especially the features!!! The scenery was FABULOUS and the information about the cast was very surprising!!! We enjoyed it so much that we bought another copy for our son and his fiance to take with them when they move to Scotland.
