CRITICS OF "The Quiet Man"

Old School Reviews

John Ford certainly has a right to some Irish blarney

October 25, 2011

Resource

Variety

This is a robust romantic drama of a native-born's return to Ireland. Director John Ford took cast and cameras to Ireland to tell the story [by Maurice Walsh] against actual backgrounds.

March 11, 2008

Resource

Q Network Film Desk

The film's saucy mix of comedy and melodrama is one of its greatest charms, although it can give you whiplash from time to time, especially if you're not used to Ford's brand of broad, back-slapping comedy

October 27, 2016

Resource

ReelViews

Although not a true classic, The Quiet Man is worth more than a cursory glance, especially for those who like Wayne or would like to experience more of his work.

January 01, 2000

Resource

The Nation

[The script] tends to resolve its problems by having the cast embrace, fraternity-brother fashion, and break out into full-throated ballads.

September 05, 2012

Resource

The Skinny

Highly endearing even as it shows its age... filled with gorgeous shots and without a single wasted frame.

January 13, 2016

Resource

Common Sense Media

Old-fashioned charmer for the family.

December 28, 2010

Cinema Sight

John Ford may be the first director to make me like John Wayne.

August 15, 2011

Resource

New York Times

Let's face it. Mr. Ford is in love with Ireland, as is his cast, and they give us a fine, gay time while they're about it.

May 20, 2003

New Yorker

As much an anthropological adventure as a romantic rhapsody.

December 05, 2016

Resource

Chicago Reader

John Ford's 1952 Oscar winner is a tribute to an Ireland that exists only in the imaginations of songwriters and poets like Ford.

March 11, 2008

Resource

Time Out

The illusion/reality theme underlying immigrant boxer Wayne's return from America to County Galway is soon swamped within a vibrant community of stage-Irish 'types'.
