We're working our way through all of the episodes of Northern Exposure for the benefit of our daughter who wasn't around beck then but who we knew would appreciate the series...
...anyway, just the other day we watched an episode where Maurice Minnifield, the entepreneur ex-astronaut, was going on about John Wayne movies as an example of what it was to be a truly manly American...except in The Quiet Man...that one didn't count and he still didn't like it.
Better he should have mentioned "The Conquerer"!

Anyway, I always like watching Barry Fitzgerald...one of the great character actors...and Quiet Man is Barry at his best.
Best
