Description
This is an Excellent condition, vintage ORIGINAL 16mm, BEAUTIFUL LPP COLOR sound CINEMASCOPE movie print of thevery entertaining 1955 biography-drama feature film motion picture classic titled... "THE LONG GRAY LINE" Director: John Ford The life story of West Point athletic director Marty Maher was the inspiration for John Ford's The Long Gray Line. Told in flashback, the film recalls the first days at the Point for Irish immigrant Maher (Tyrone Power), a pugnacious boy who can't seem to fit in with the institution's regimen of unquestioning discipline. Athletic director Ward Bond takes a liking to Maher and arranges for the young man to become his assistant; Bond also plays Cupid between Maher and Irish maidservant Mary O'Donnell (Maureen O'Hara). When Mary's baby is stillborn, the Mahers begin to regard the West Point cadets as their surrogate children: this eventually leads to the film's most touching scene, in which Mary bids farewell to her son-substitute as he marches off to World War II. Following Mary's death, Marty stays on at the Point, until the place seems somehow incomplete without his presence. On the occasion of his forced retirement, Maher gently pleads with one of his former students--President Dwight D. Eisenhower--to permit him to remain at his post (Ike is played by Harry Carey Jr. in his early scenes, and by the voice of Paul Frees in the wraparound White House scenes). Based on Marty Maher's autobiography, The Long Gray Line is one of John Ford's finest films!CAST: Tyrone Power - Martin Maher Maureen O'Hara - Mary O'Donnell Robert Francis - Red Sundstrom Jr. Ward Bond - Capt.
