John Wayne shocked by Maureen O’Hara’s improvised The Quiet Man line ‘I refused to say it’

JOHN WAYNE movie The Quiet Man saw Duke’s genuine surprise at Maureen O’Hara’s whispered unscripted line that was captured at the film’s conclusion at director John Ford’s insistence. The bad-tempered filmmaker had to fight hard for the final cut to include this scene and Victor McLaglen’s fight, having cruelly baited the actor into a rage-fuelled performance. O’Hara on the other hand, who broke a bone during production, refused to put up with Ford’s behaviour, firing right back at the ‘son of a b****” when shooting another scene.
