While Bogdanovich&#8217;s interview with Ford himself is less informative (he didn&#8217;t have much to say), it provides both unintentional comic relief and a revealing glimpse of Ford&#8217;s notoriously &#8220;difficult&#8221; personality. The original version of this documentary has been unavailable for viewing since its release in 1971, so Bogdanovich&#8217;s updated iteration is especially welcome; but the original footage ultimately remains much more interesting than the later additions. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bogdanovich&#8217;s interview with the laconic Ford in Monument Valley<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-1024x617.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"386\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-47705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-1024x617.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-300x181.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-128x77.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-768x463.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford-1536x926.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Ford.png 1607w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Fascinating interview clips with Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda, and John Wayne<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart-1024x656.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"410\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-47703\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart-1024x656.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart-128x82.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart-768x492.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Stewart.png 1493w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda-1024x649.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"406\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-47702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda-1024x649.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda-128x81.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda-768x487.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Fonda.png 1513w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-1024x643.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"402\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-47704\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-1024x643.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-128x80.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-768x483.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne-1536x965.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/04\/Directed-by-John-Ford-Wayne.png 1539w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes.
