John Ford: Dreaming the Quiet Man

'Dreaming the Quiet Man' features interviews with Ford fans such as Martin Scorsese, Peter Bogdanovicz, Jim Sheridan, William Dowling, and Joe McBride. There is a mesmerizing archive and rare photographs of the film's production. The documentary's main setting is Ford's ancestral homeland of Connemara, on the west coast of Ireland, where his parents were born. We meet Ford's cousins, the Feeneys, who tell us about Ford's parents' departure from Ireland following the Great Famine and the young Ford's return to Ireland in 1922 to visit his cousins the Thornton's, only to see their house burned down by the infamous Black and Tans. Ford gave money to the IRA while posing as a location scout for a film. We travel to Portland, Maine, where Ford grew up and went on to become a director in Hollywood's early days. The lad did well, but Ireland was always on his mind.
