And it almost wasn't. Republic only agreed to finance it if both stars and the director, John Ford, agreed to make a Western under Republic first. They made Rio Grande, the 3rd installment in Ford's "Cavalry Trilogy" (following RKO's Fort Apache and She Wore a Yellow Ribbon). The Quiet Man was the only Republic film to win an Oscar (for Cinematography).

[@loganinkosovo]

@buggeroff considering how 1. Most of the movies made in the 70s through the 2010s are just bad remakes of good to great movies from the 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's and 2. Consist mainly of horrible acting and shitty CGI. then 3. You really don't have a leg to stand on. Go back to your Chick Flicks and Sex and the City reruns.

[@loganinkosovo]

@buggeroff There's nothing wrong with most Disney Films. Mary Poppins was a bit too long but other than that they are good movies. I have no Idea what a "Children's Playtime Film" is. The vast majority of Movie's in the last ten years have been real shit and the last four years of the woke generation movies have been total shit. Aside from Deadpool and Guardians the marvel stuff has been moronic shit. But don't worry, most of Hollywood will be going to prison for human trafficking soon. The major studios will be decimated. Even Disney.

It's a true thing that unless a man is truly vicious and sadistic, most women like a strong man. Thus the way women like "bad boys" and pretty white women wind up with thugs, or Mafia types, and the saying "nice guys finish last"...women who ought to know better don't go with men who are nice and sweet. (sometimes they are the creepy ones, actually). The problem is when men who are nasty inside let it burst forth without any apparent reason. Women....men. Complicated. And yes, we cannot just switch back and forth as it suits us. Maybe we just like playing for fun.... BUT the older I get the more I get this movie. As a little kid watching this on TV, I just felt really uncomfortable about John Wayne dragging Maureen O'Hara about, because as a child of divorced parents, I felt maybe my dad was mean to my mom. (turns out he never hit her, he cheated on her)
