Book Synopsis The Lost Worlds of John Ford by : Jeffrey Richards
Download or read book The Lost Worlds of John Ford written by Jeffrey Richards and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great director John Ford (1894-1973) is best known for classic westerns, but his body of work encompasses much more than this single genre. Jeffrey Richards develops and broadens our understanding of Ford's film-making oeuvre by studying his non-Western films through the lens of Ford's life and abiding preoccupations. Ford's other cinematic worlds included Ireland, the Family, Catholicism, War and the Sea, which share with his westerns the recurrent themes of memory and loss, the plight of outsiders and the tragedy of family breakup. Richards' revisionist study both provides new insights into familiar films such as The Fugitive (1947); The Quiet Man (1952), Gideon's Way and The Informer (1935) and reclaims neglected masterpieces, among them Wee Willie Winkie (1937) and the extraordinary The Long Voyage Home. (1940).

Book Synopsis Searching for John Ford by : Joseph McBride
Download or read book Searching for John Ford written by Joseph McBride and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-02-11 with total page 983 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Ford's classic films—such as Stagecoach, The Grapes of Wrath, How Green Was My Valley, The Quiet Man, and The Searchers—have earned him worldwide admiration as America's foremost filmmaker, a director whose rich visual imagination conjures up indelible, deeply moving images of our collective past. Joseph McBride's Searching for John Ford, described as definitive by both the New York Times and the Irish Times, surpasses all other biographies of the filmmaker in its depth, originality, and insight. Encompassing and illuminating Ford's myriad complexities and contradictions, McBride traces the trajectory of Ford's life from his beginnings as “Bull” Feeney, the nearsighted, football-playing son of Irish immigrants in Portland, Maine, to his recognition, after a long, controversial, and much-honored career, as America's national mythmaker. Blending lively and penetrating analyses of Ford's films with an impeccably documented narrative of the historical and psychological contexts in which those films were created, McBride has at long last given John Ford the biography his stature demands.

Book excerpt: During his five decades of filmmaking, John Ford was described as a humorist, weaver of myths, interpreter of the Old West, high dramatist, and storyteller. Film critic Peter Stowell meticulously examines 14 films to demonstrate how Ford contributed to the development of six great American myths: the American Adam, the American frontier, the American democrat, American agrariarism, American individualism, and American civilization. Stowell charts the narrative structure of two of Ford's most famous films, "The Searcher" and "Stagecoach," to convey a sense of how these classics were created. ISBN 0-8057-9305-2 (pbk.): $9.95.

Book excerpt: When Danny Holman leaves the cornfields of Iowa for the bright lights of Chicago, he expects his life to change. He just can't guess how much and how fast. A violent incident on the road brings Danny the favor of a man known only as Mr. Patrise, who gives Danny a job, a home, and a new identity. The City is a different world from the one Danny--now called Doc--knew, and literally so. Long-vanished powers have returned, and more is going on in the streets than nightlife and street warfare. Power is gathering: a power rooted in terror, madness, and death. To fight it will require Doc to face what he fears most. To defeat it will take something more than courage.
