Okay, movie buffs!
Yesterday would have been Ford's 125th birthday and GoldDerby took a look at Ford's directing career and picked out 20 of the worst to best of his movies.
Ford didn't just direct movies with John Wayne, he also directed movies with Henry Fonda, Clark Gable and, interestingly, Boris Karloff (and many more).

To this day, Ford holds the all-time Oscar record for Best Director victories with four: “The Informer” (1935), “The Grapes of Wrath” (1940), “How Green Was My Valley” (1941), and “The Quiet Man” (1952).
