First her name is O'hara and then she's an airport?! "Scorsese says the storm-lashed scene where John Wayne finally kisses Maureen O'Hara is one of the best kisses in motion pictures. O'Hare remembers it as well because she spent most of the film trying to hit him!"

Although I loved the scenery of Ireland In "The Quiet Man" I didn't like the way John Wayne's charactor treated Maureen O'Hara's charactor. He was dragging her on the ground, and treating her very ruff! That made it difficult to appreciate any romance. I read that the actor and actress were good friends. Great talents, the two of them!

He also liked "Gangs of New York," a bigoted book which defamed my New York City ancestors.
