Picture The Quiet Man: An Illustrated Celebration

Written by a true fan, this reflection on one of the most loved Irish films of all time collects mementos from John Ford’s Oscar winning The Quiet Man . Although made more than 50 years ago, this romance, starring John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara, continues to fire the imaginations of Ireland’s visitors, would-be visitors, and lovers of cinema. This collection serves as a photo album, with candid shots from behind the scenes and stills from the film itself, a miscellany of little-known facts about the locations, bit parts, costumes, and directorial commentary, and never-before-published material that will charm film buffs and engage film historians.
