"When he was doing a picture on the Fox lot, the associate producer questioned the way he was setting up a shot. Ford asked him how he would like to do it, and the man explained it to him. Ford very obligingly made the changes, shot the scene that way, and then asked if it was satisfactory. When he heard that it was, he took the film magazine off the camera, and handed it to the associate producer with the words, 'Here's your scene. Now I will shoot it my way.'" (Colin Young)

America on celluloid. A vision of the past transcending the circumstances under which they were created. Myth and history in the same body of work. A master.

Stagecoach & The Searchers are classics. I'm anxious to see his lesser-known works.

I just watched John Ford's Cheyenne Autumn. It was a great film, beautifully shot with a great story and needs to be added to the Mubi database asap.

Long lost John Ford film "Upstream" (1929) which was thought of as being lost was found along with 74 other lost films in 2009. Thanks to the New Zealand Film Archive, it will screen in September at the home of the Academy Awards.http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/08/03/2972124.htm?section=entertainment

How is his entire filmography not on here? It's not like he's some obscure director from the middle of nowhere. He's fucking John Ford.

I dare you, say something provably bad about John Ford the filmmaker.

Subtle and poetic and a master storyteller. One of the best. He could get a bit too sentimental and a little too macho-BS sometimes, but he does so many other awesome things...who cares?
