" Notes: First of all, I had to admit it, I'm not really familiar with John Wayne's work and, in my opinion, he basically always portrayed typical tough guys so I was rather surprised to see him being cast in a such a romantic feature. And the best thing is that it actually worked. Basically, it is a rather simple and very old-fashioned romantic feature.

"“One of the most beautiful love stories I’ve ever seen…. This film was the passion project of John Ford’s life, and you can feel it in every frame…. The authenticity just leaps off the screen.” - William Friedkin “John Wayne isn’t what I always think of when I think of an actor, but he’s everything I think of when I think of a star…. Maureen O’Hara owns this role; it could only have been played by her.” - Alec Baldwin "

“Nostalgia abounds John Ford's glitteringly perfect adaptation of a Maurice Walsh story he acquired the rights for in 1946. "The Quiet Man" is Ford's broadly comic, inherently charming foray into blarney that never once mocks or feels bogus, even if the setting of Inisfree was entirely fictional. In fact, Ford persisted with the studio, even accepting a meagre budget, if they allowed him to shoot in Ireland, much of which is capitalised on during the climactic punch-up between John Wayne and Victor McLaglen. Inisfree's scenic backgrounds are stunningly realised by Technicolor photography courtesy of Winton Hoch, whose vivid compositions capture the panoramic beauty of the Irish countryside, earning him a much-deserved Oscar.

"28.06 Peter von Baghin lemppari ei vakuuta täysiä uusintakatseluillakaan. Irlannissa on vihreää, perinteistä ja siellä juodaan viinaa ja nyrkkitapellaan. Ihan jees. Kuitenkin, lopun illalliskattaus, jossa riidat on sovittu, naamaan lyöty ja viinaa otettu, saa tällaiseen sentimentaaliseen machoiluun viehtyneen katsojan liikuttumaan."
