Yep. Filmed in Cong, Ireland

"Here's a good stick, to beat the lovely lady." Sean: "Thanks"

Great reaction as always. Sometimes, you just need to enjoy a good fight. I don’t think the message was that fighting solved the problem but that she was worth the fight. It just turned out ok in the end. I really hope you watch more John Wayne movies.

I love everyone's great comments here. I never understood the exact time period here until this week when I did some reading and it was confirmed for me that this was the 1920's, which I wish they stated in the movie, but the clues were the mention of Prohibition, the style of the bishop's car, and the fact that the horse and trains were the main modes of transportaion here. The giant fighting brawl was a staple and a traditon of a John Wayne picture, here they managed to make it a main plot point. Jack MacGrowan, who played Feeney, the chief henchman of Danaher, everyone here would recognize as Burke Dennings, the murdered director from The Exorcist. And Cassie, as well as me and several others here telling you that this is one of their favorite films, you will have about a hundred others telling you the same thing next week in the YouTube comments.

Cassie, if not for your channel, I never would’ve seen this movie. It’s interesting that this was your introduction to John Wayne since he is known for his westerns. I loved the smile on your face when Sean first sees Mary Kate. I also had the same reaction to the way women were treated by their husbands, but I still enjoyed watching with you 🍿

Hey Cassie, I have travelled to Ireland and been to the Quiet Man Bridge. Just outside of Connemara and not to far from Galway. Truly a beautiful land and the people as well. They love Americans. Fun fact, those were John Wayne's kids on the wagon at the horse race. Check out another movie they did together as well called McClintock. They did have a chemistry and it always came out on screen. It was a different time and yes, Sean's rough way with Mary Kate does not match 21st century norms. Her character was that of a hard, farm raised woman and she only respected a man who was just a rough as she was. Thank you again for watching. And by the way, I saw you shadow boxing at the start of the fight sequence. I guess the Rocky movies are paying off

Man, I use to ask my grandma mostly about then. And unlike some kids, I was listening intently and interested. Never was a History major, but am always interested in "what was it really like." And some stories of just the way of life, blew me away. Even simple stories. That includes media and music to.

Hey Cassie, I saw that the great actor William Hurt just died. Do you think we could get a movie reaction? Maybe Children Of A Lesser God, Gorky Park or Broadcast News? Thank you!

Sorry everyone. I know this movie was a very popular choice around here. But I just couldn’t get into this one. I gave it the old college try, and watched for over an hour. But I just couldn’t finish it. Maybe I was in the wrong mood. IDK. Perhaps I will finish it when the YouTube Edit comes out. I hope no one will be offended.

"He needs to just communicate with his wife.". That'll be hard for him as he is a very..... quiet man. ;-)

Miles E Coburn

Maybe you should have posted this in a separate message, directly to her, instead of having it be buried in a message thread about a movie he had no connection to?

Gideon James

I'm with you on this. The sad part is the majority on here love these films so expect more unless Cassie stops including them on her polls.

Robert da Spruce

I don’t begrudge the people that enjoy this film. It just isn’t for me. I’m curious what’s on the schedule this week. Hopefully Cassie will make an announcement sometime today.

Catherine LW

Only sad thing I see is you, bleating your PC-ridden, victimology garbage.

Catherine LW

Gorky Park is misogynistic. Women are murdered, seduced. Why are you suggesting that crap? Hypocrisy.

Carol_White

Your schtick is getting really tired, Catherine. I'll try to beat up more women if it'll make you happy. I'm sure Cassie appreciates your efforts to drive the politically unworthy to unsubscribe from her Patreon.

Steven Ashford

I’ve watched a lot of movies now that I wouldn’t have otherwise watched because of Cassie’s channel

Nasty thread

This film is John Ford's love letter to Ireland. John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara shine on screen together. My Mama loved this film. I'm glad you watched this and shared your reaction on the channel.

Russell

A truly great movie. Back in an age when masculinity, femininity and storytelling were not compromised by the ridiculous politics (inserted into everything) of today.

Russell

Me too. There were a couple of movies I was like, nah, but then I watched because of Cassie's channel.

Shaun Ganyo

Ah, Cassie, this is why you are the best in the business. It's magical to watch you smile and laugh and wonder about the ridiculous stuff here.

Stick Figure Studios

Have you even seen GORKY PARK? I have. It's not misogynistic. Yes, a woman is murdered in its story, but so are two men. The film obviously isn't endorsing such things. It's just reflecting an unfortunate reality that occurs in our world. It's actually a pretty good movie. It's not crap and it's not hypocrisy to recommend it. That is a bad take.

Pand

I know this is from a while ago, but I have to ask: what are these "ridiculous politics" and how do they prohibit the kind of creative freedom you're longing for?

Gary Quick

Can't wait to watch this reaction, this is one of my favorite John Wayne movies of all time!
