Quiet Man speaks to all of us
THERE seems to be no silencing The Quiet Man. The 1952 film about a returning Irish emigrant, his courtship of a local woman and their feisty marital relationship continues to provoke discussion, documentary and revision.
The Quiet Man will be discussed at the forthcoming Maureen O’Hara Classic Film Festival, which is in its third year in Glengarriff. The festival will not focus solely on The Quiet Man — nor is it limited to the work of actress O’Hara alone.
