On today’s podcast, we go home with John Ford. The Quiet Man is arguably his best-looking film, a fairy tale-like drama set in Ireland in which John Wayne acts as the director’s avatar — finding love, community, comedy, and fist fights in the beautiful rolling hills. Joining us to discuss this all-time classic is Laura Jacoves ( @laurajacoves on instagram ).
