Searching for John Ford by Joseph Mcbride
Nobody captured the landscape and faces of the American people the way John Ford did, in films such as "The Searchers", "Stagecoach" and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance". He hid his sensitivity beneath a hard-drinking, exaggeratedly "Irish" exterior, but Joseph McBride's biography succeeds in penetrating Ford's habitual reticence and sheds light upon previously unknown aspects of his professional endeavours.
Joseph McBride is an assistant professor of cinema at San Franci sco State University. His books include Frank Capra: The Catastrophe of Success, Steven Spielberg: A Biography, Hawks on Hawks, and the critical studies John Ford (1974, with Michael Wilmington) and Orson Welles.
