DVD Reviews of The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition)
DVD Review: A Great John Wayne Performance in a Delightful Film
Summary: 5 Stars
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.

Summary: 5 Stars
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.DVD Review: The Quiet Man
Summary: 5 Stars
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.DVD Review: The Quiet Man

You people have got to be joking haven't you? You sent me the DVD "The Quiet Man" which was not formated to Australia's PAL 4 region and, instead was Region 1 ... you apologise for the mistake and then advise me to keep it rather than pay costs of returning it to you ... which I was very grateful for - then you send me this review request. Are your departments actually going to try working TOGETHER one of these days, pilgrim?DVD Review: GREAT MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars
Fantasic movie. One of my favorite John Wayne movies even though it was not a western. The soundtrack is beautiful.
Description of The Quiet Man (Collector's Edition)

Rating: NR

Media Type: DVD
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
