Episode 73 - The Quiet Man

March 07, 2016 by Matthew Johnson

"The Quiet Man", directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne and Maureen O’hara tells the story of Sean Thornton, returning to Ireland after a tragic accident in the boxing ring. He proceeds to try and get his life together in his ancestral home, ultimately marrying the strong willed and intelligence Mary Kate Danaher, played by Maureen O’hara. The movie ends with a riotous fight scene that goes on for 10 minutes between Thornton and Squire 'Red' Will Danaher, the brother of Mary Kate. It’s a fun and beautiful movie. Bob and I highly recommend watching it, more than once!

Here's the IMDB page for "The Quiet Man"

Up next John Wayne is "McQ". Set in Seattle in the mid-1970’s. We’ll have fun pointing out all the ways Seattle has changed since then.
