  Nobody captured the landscape and faces of the American people the way John Ford did, in films such as The Searchers , Stagecoach and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance . He hid his sensitivity beneath a hard-drinking, exaggeratedly Irish exterior, but Joseph McBride's biography succeeds in penetrating Ford's habitual reticence and sheds light upon previously unknown aspects of his professional endeavours.
