LONG GRAY LINE. THE

From legendary director John Ford (The Whole Town's Talking) comes The Long Gray Line, a biographical military drama starring Tyrone Power (Nightmare Alley) and Maureen O'Hara (The Quiet Man). The film tells the true story of two-fisted Irish immigrant Marty Maher (Power), and his fifty-year career as an athletics instructor at West Point military academy, where he marries the equally fiery Mary (O'Hara), and the pair endure personal and professional triumphs and tragedies as successive generations of graduates go off to war... Based on Maher's autobiography, The Long Gray Line is a heart-warming and nostalgic tale of triumph over adversity, with supporting turns from many members of Ford's 'stock company', including Ward Bond (The Shepherd of the Hills), Donald Crisp (The Last Hurrah), Harry Carey Jr (Death of a Gunfighter), and Patrick Wayne (Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger).
