Just a lot of film studies 101 talk from boring professor types who blab and drone on and on and on. They provide us with many useless tidbits on why films are important. I thought this was to be about the director John Ford.
We come out of this knowing next to nothing about John Ford the man – what shaped him, why did he become a film director, his upbringing.
Does not mention the major films of John Ford - Stagecoach or The Searchers or The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance??? Why?? Simply Incomprehensible!!! John Wayne is barely mentioned.
Nothing is said about how the films were made on the location – such as Monument Valley.
Ranks as one of the worst documentaries I have ever seen.
