The film that beat "Citizen Kane" for the Oscar. From before the era of cynicism. From when family was a foundation. They don't write 'em like that any more. They don't make them like that, like John Ford made them, any more.

Being Irish, he had an abiding sense of tragedy, which sustained him through temporary periods of joy - WB Yeats

At least he didn't make it in Monument Valley! Not a bad film, one of his best and well photographed. Ashame 70mm wasn't around then. GRH

And make of you what I will,
