Women in the Films of John Ford - David Meuel - Bog

While John Ford remains one of the most influential and revered directors in film history, he is also one of the most frequently misunderstood. One widespread assumption is that he was almost exclusively a man's director, dismissive of, or at best not well attuned to, the stories, perspectives and concerns of women. Challenging this assumption, this book gives readers a richer understanding of the director's view of the world and of the women as well as the men who inhabit it.
