Companion to John Ford

John Ford is a major American director, famous for both his westerns such as "Stagecoach" and "The Searchers", as well as all - American yarns like "The Grapes of Wrath". His four Best Director Academy Awards (1935, 1940, 1941, 1952) is a record still unmatched, although only one of those films, "How Green Was My Valley", won Best Picture.
