Synopsis
John Ford's Oscar-winning `The Quiet Man' (1952), based on the story by Maurice Walsh, is one of the best-loved and most popular films of all time, and nowadays one of the best-selling videos also. `The Complete Guide To The Quiet Man' is a celebration of every aspect of the film - the background, the stars, the shooting, the screenplay, the influences, and the many legends and stories that have grown up around it. This book could just as easily have been called "Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About The Quiet Man" - the shooting locations with dozens of detailed maps; a very comprehensive cast and crew list; hundreds of previously unseen photographs taken by both amateurs and professionals; a detailed analysis of every word of the dialogue; video timings of all the scenes; and above all the inside story and a thorough discussion of the whole `Quiet Man' phenomenon, which have all led to one of the greatest cult movies of all time.
If you are already one of the many millions of "Quiet Maniacs" who already know and love the film then this book is a must for you. If you are not yet a fan, then maybe it is time you learned why John Ford is regarded as one of the greatest film directors the world has ever known; why the electric partnership of Maureen O'Hara and John Wayne was one of the silver screen's most erotic combinations; how the beautiful scenery of the West of Ireland first came to international attention as a result of the Oscar-winning colour cinematography of Hoch and Stout; and why Barry Fitzgerald and Victor McLaglen became two of the cinema's best-loved character actors.
We can confidently predict that `The Quiet Man' will be around as long as there are moviegoers to watch it, a monument to the genius of John Ford, Maurice Walsh and its many stars. In the case of this western shot in Ireland, we can justly say "This is the West of Ireland - when the fact becomes legend, print the legend!"
