Heartfelt Ford Masterpiece
When I was a college student, this film was shown as part of our film classic series. It was the first week of my freshman year. As I had been too young to see it when it was released, I saw it for the first time then. I recall tears in my eyes through many sequences because the film's warm picture of a closeknit loving family. I felt very homesick, being away from home for the first time and it made me miss my own family all the more. As I have grown older, the film's beauty, deep human feeling, artistry, and general excellence have continued to grow on me. It is now many years since I saw it that first time but I never tire of it.

I am delighted that it has become the recognized classic it is. All the wonderful actors are gone now, except for legendary and still beautiful Maureen O'Hara, who speaks movingly of her own experiences making it and staying in touch with the great people she worked with in it at How Green Was My Valley parties John Ford gave every year for the company until he grew old and sick. Of course John Ford's talent is something that one appreciates more as life goes on and one realizes what great art he produced within the studio system and what lovely and moving stories he created in those wonderful years.

By all means, if you have not seen this film, buy it, see it, treasure it and pass it to your children so they can see how great movies once were.
