Thread Name: The Quiet Man Film
Subject: RE: The Quiet Man Film
SRS,I guess we just know different types of "chicks"! :) The reason it isn't a "guy" flick is because the action is limited to one scene, there is too much romance without any nudity, and the music is very slow - no overbearing rock music!

Seriously though, I never really thought of the movie coming from John Wayne's POV. I was only being sarcastic about the original film being a "chick flick", but I what I did say is that if it were released today it would be a "chick flick", and I sincerely believe that.   Take away the fight scene, which would happen in today's politically correct age, and you've got a chick flick.
