description: The career of John Ford, considered by some to be Americaâ€™s greatest film director, spanned nearly half a century. With masterpieces like Stagecoach, The Informer, The Grapes of Wrath, and The Searchers, he was one of the worldâ€™s most popular filmmakers and one of the most universally admired. About John Ford is a critical interpretation and a personal tribute. Lindsay Andersonâ€™s comprehensive survey of Fordâ€™s work has the authority of a writer who was himself a distinguished filmmaker, and the portrait that emerges has the vividness and warmth of friendship. â€œAbout John Ford leaves no room for challenge.â€ â€” David Robinson, The Times (London)
