john ford lost interest in this movie


a stuntman was killed and there was suppose to be another battle scene at the end.

Ford didn't do the Civil War very well

Not one of Ford's better efforts.

Well, he was forced to stop drinking by his doctor so that would work against him

IT is toward the end of his career and although he had some real good efforts including this one I think he was stopped giving as much, everyone revered him --- Even now everyone thinks everything he ever did is great

Before you start --- I don't think "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" is near as good as it's rating or as people say --- it's watchable



And they weren't

I think TMWSLB is one of his best. Not as good as The Searchers but still very good.
