The Quiet Man/Rio Grande (DVD)

Includes the John Ford films THE QUIET MAN and RIO GRANDE. In THE QUIET MAN, Sean Thornton is a retired American boxing champion trying to put tragedy behind him by returning to... more...Innisfree, the bucolic Irish village of his birth. He purchases his birthplace from its current owner, enraging the wealthy and bellicose Red Will Danaher, who had designs on the property. On arriving at his cottage, Thornton finds it being swept out by Mary Kate Danaher, a redheaded vision from whom he steals a not completely unwelcome kiss. After engaging in a subterfuge involving a horse race, some of the locals manage to get the disgruntled Red Will to allow his sister to be courted by the American. But the courtship ritual of the village is only the first of many local practices that the bewildered Thornton must endure if he is to have Mary Kate. In RIO GRANDE, Kirby York is a colonel at an army outpost along the U.S. Mexico border where the Apache are always a problem. When his son, Jeff--whom he hasn't seen in more than a decade--arrives at the fort after flunking out of West Point, Yorke treats him coldly, warning the young man not to expect preferential treatment, which Jeff assures him he doesn't want. Yorke's ex-wife Kathleen appears, intending to persuade Jeff to leave the army. Yorke refuses to do the necessary paperwork to release his son, a decision seconded by Jeff, who has begun to adapt to army life--and before Kathleen can regroup for another attempt, the fort is attacked by the Apache.
