I recall watching The Quiet Man one rainy Saturday afternoon at my parent's home in my younger years and always thought of John Wayne with the tough guy image. This film proved to be his shining moment when showing his more romantic side and when he acted alongside Maureen O'Hara as the romantic interest it showed well on screen the character's gel well together. The supporting cast of Ward Bond, Barry Fritzgerald and Victor McLaughlin (Who had previously been a boxer before Hollywood beckoned) work well together with Wayne and O'Hara. It's the case of the path of true love doesn't run smoothly throw in a boxing match, having to defend the love of your life's honour. Of course John Ford's excellent back drop of the Irish setting helps to move the story along with memorable scenes (the boxing match fought around the village). What is equally enjoyable is the musical score it's a timeless classic which never goes out of fashion with a memory of the rainy afternoon and a lovely film to be enjoyed time and time again.Read full review

This is a classic movie. A comedy love story. Brilliantly played by the Duke, John Wayne. Made me forget the troubled world we are all living in at the moment. I was catapulted back in time when the world was a simpler and uncomplicated place to live in. Well worth the money. 👍

bought item for mum-in-law who was delighted as it was not readily available on dvd. Even i remember watching this film when i was younger and it made me want to be Maureen O'Hara! A lovely irish romance with a lot of craic and tongue in cheek humour. A great role for John Wayne as the prospective suitor and his fight for his true love.
John Wayne never ceases to please, an unusual portray of him, but nevertheless, excellent, a good story indeed.
