Leave your thoughts about The Quiet Man.
| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostBrilliantly photographed romantic comedy. |
| BBCAlmar HaflidasonWayne and O'Hara create a fine rapport, with good performances that build to a truly satisfying climax. |
| Tim Dirks' The Greatest FilmsTim DirksThe Quiet Man (1952) is director John Ford's epic romantic comedy - a loving, sentimental, nostalgic tribute to his Irish ancestry and homeland. |
| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterIf you love more recent Irish comedies, you might also want to catch this US-made, but thoroughly Irish charmer from yesteryear. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonShot partly on location in Ireland and designed in the lushest greens ever squeezed out of Technicolor, The Quiet Man is a movie that isn’t about a whole lot, but yet seems to contain so much—from Wayne’s easygoing charisma to the notoriously protracted climactic fight to the febrile, film-noir-like flashback to Sean’s boxing days. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonFord shot on location in Ireland in dazzling Technicolor (with bold, sparkling greens), and came up with one of his most enjoyable, full-bodied films. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. Puccio...old fashioned and sentimental...clearly a labor of love. |
| Cinema SightWesley LovellJohn Ford may be the first director to make me like John Wayne. |
| Los Angeles TimesDennis HuntScenes of the Irish countryside are dazzling and Ford’s version of Ireland is all homey and warm-hearted, with a distinct Hollywood glaze. |
| New YorkerRichard BrodyJohn Ford’s bluff and sentimental comedy, from 1952, set in the Irish countryside, is as much an anthropological adventure as a romantic rhapsody. |
