Final thoughts on John Ford

Well I hope you enjoyed my month long tribute to John Ford, even though it felt as if I didn't even scratch the surface of what this man and his films were all about. I love John Ford films more than most others, not many directors can be tough and sensitive at the same time, but Ford captured it perfectly, and even though I never got around to talking about them I strongly recommend "The Grapes of Wrath", "How Green Was My Valley", "The Informer", "My Darling Clementine", and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance", I'm probably forgetting more but those should get one started. Meanwhile stay tuned for tomorrow when I announce October's director of the month.
