The Quiet Man

For someone who perceives himself a movie freak, as I do, I admit that my exposure to films created before my lifetime is seriously lacking. And although I still thought The Quiet Man was good, I believe it would have been better if I had learned to better appreciate movies of that golden-age era of Hollywood (this movie was filmed in 1952).

Having said that, this review is not a slam of The Quiet Man. It's more of a slam on my experience, which I intend to broaden in the future.

Bonus points for its being based in Ireland and starring The Duke and Grandpa's crush Maureen O'Hara, it's worth a watch or two.

Rating: 6/10
