Variety
succeeds at the very least in exciting viewer interest in some of Ford's classic as well as lesser-known features

A documentary worthy of awards that reveals the heart and artistry of John Ford without ignoring his flaws. I loved this and am moved to view as much of Mr. Ford’s catalogue as I can.

A poorly made documentary that was still interesting to watch due to impressive films of John Ford himself.
The editing of this documentary annoyed me but the interviews where insightful & informative.
This film started on his early days in silent cinema & it centred on his more or less golden age 1940-1960 where he made so many classics & films that still impact today.

Interesting introduction to the man behind the camera, covering his earlier works for Fox and his relationship with producer Darryl F. Zanuck. Ford seems like quite a character. I thought they did a great job getting lots of different perspectives on him to build up a bit of who the whole man might have been if you'd known him personally or professionally.
