Fitzsimons, James O'Hara, Sean McClory, Jack MacGowran, Ken Curtis, Melinda Wayne, Michael Wayne, Patrick Wayne, and Toni Wayne. Directed by John Ford.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuiet Man is director John Ford's epic romantic comedy - a loving, sentimental, nostalgic tribute to his Irish ancestry and homeland. A rich, beautifully-textured Technicolor presentation deserving of its Color Cinematography award, it was filmed mostly on location in Ireland, although some backdrops and background studio shots were obviously intermixed. Its screenplay was based on Frank Nugent's adaptation of Maurice Walsh's Saturday Evening Post 1933 short story Green Rushes. Ford considered the rollicking, comedy love story one of his favorite films.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe memorable plot, about the collision course between an anti-materialistic, Irish-American boxer nicknamed 'Trooper Thornton' (Wayne) in the town of Innisfree in the land of his Irish birthplace and a local, mean bully (McLaglen) - further entangled when he falls in love with the man's fiesty, red-haired, materialistic sister (O'Hara) who refuses to consummate her marriage without her dowry (350 Irish pounds in gold), was inspired by a Celtic myth about a monumental battle between two sacred kings (gods) who annually fought for the affections of a queen (or goddess).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe famous director of westerns had already won Best Director Academy Award Oscars for three previous non-Western films - The Informer (1935), The Grapes of Wrath (1940), and How Green Was My Valley (1941). This sentimental film, Ford's first 'romantic love story,' received a total of seven Academy Awards nominations (including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor - Victor McLaglen, Best Screenplay - Frank Nugent, Best Art Direction, and Best Sound) and won two Oscars: Best Cinematography - Winton Hoch and Archie Stout, and Ford (at 57 years of age) won his fourth and final Best Director Oscar, establishing a record that is still unbeaten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the film was an ambitious, personal pet project and not one of Ford's typical westerns, he was unable to find financial backing from the major Hollywood studios, so he turned to Republic Pictures, a smaller studio regarded as the studio for B-pictures and low-budget westerns. After the financial and critical success of Rio Grande (1950) for the studio, the third of Ford's 'cavalry trilogy,' he convinced Republic Pictures to support him for his next riskier film - an Irish \"Taming of the Shrew\" tale that was remarkably similar in plot. He brought the same stock company of actors from his western - John Wayne, Victor McLaglen, and Maureen O'Hara - to Ireland to film his humorous, epic romance. In the seventeen years of Republic's existence, it was the first film for the studio that was nominated for Best Picture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Cvtreasures stamp NOT on original\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Vintage Poster Masterpieces","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59486806310993,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"MAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0116\/5511\/8929\/files\/quiet-man-original-vintage-lobby-title-card-movie-poster-891260.jpg?v=1778210939","url":"https:\/\/shopallthinge.myshopify.com\/products\/quiet-man-original-vintage-lobby-title-card-movie-poster","provider":"shopallthinge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
