In 1971, Peter Bogdanovich made a fascinating documentary about the legendary John Ford in which Henry Fonda, James Stewart and John Wayne revealed firsthand tales about the man often cited as America's greatest, most influential filmmaker. Thirty-five years later, there were more stories to tell - by, among others, Clint Eastwood, Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg and Katharine Hepburn. Bogdanovich wove these new interviews into a reedited, restructured documentary offering a more personal vision of the man and his work. Packed with clips, anecdotes and insights, Directed by John Ford is a treasure for buffs, for new classics fans and for rising filmmakers who in another 35 years will want to share how Ford's work impacts their own.
