Ford and the elder Carey had filmed an earlier version of the story  and Ford dedicated the Technicolor remake to his memory.  Company of Heroes is the story of the making of that film  as well as the eight subsequent Ford classics. In it  Harry Carey  Jr. casts a remarkably observant eye on the process of filming Westerns by one of the true masters of the form. From She Wore a Yellow Ribbon and Wagonmaster to The Searchers and Cheyenne Autumn  he shows the care  tedium  challenge  and exhilaration of movie-making at its highest level. Careys portrayal of John Ford at work is the most intimate ever written. He also gives us insightful and original portraits of the men and women who were part of Fords vision of America: John Wayne  Richard Widmark  Henry Fonda  Maureen OHara  Ward Bond  Victor McLaglen  and Ben Johnson.  Funny  insightful  and brutally honest  Company of Heroes is a rip-roaring good read that presents the remarkable life story of Harry Carey  Jr. and his many continuing fine performances.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45651631046709,"sku":"ByrdShop_0810828650","price":47.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780810828650.jpg?v=1781836718","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/company-of-heroes-9780810828650","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
