Of all the actors on 1923, Robert Patrick looks the most like he belongs in 1923. In a good way. Like, he just takes to 100 years ago like a duck to water.

On November 18, 1994, Star Trek the Next Generation transitioned to the big screen. William Shatner (Captain James T Kirk), James Doohan (Scotty), and Walter Koenig (Chekov) from the original franchise appeared in the film to pass the torch. Leonard Nimoy (Spock), Deforest Kelley (Bones), and George Takei (Sulu) were originally slated to return with Kirk instead but declined. The movie introduced Alan Ruck as Star Fleet Captain Harriman, and a new villian named Soran played by Malcom McDowell. Returning from the TV series were Patrick Stewart (Picard), Jonathan Frakes (Riker), Brent Spiner (Data), LeVar Burton (Geordi), Michael Dorn (Warf), Gates McFadden (Beverly), Marina Sirtis (troi), Majel Barrett (computer), Whoopie Goldberg (Guinan), Barbara March (Lursa), and Gwynyth Walsh (B'Etor). The film saw the death of Captain Kirk, which had to be reshot due to dislike at screenings of the original death. It also featured the destruction of Enterprise.

Last night, after watching a movie I had recorded, the television defaulted to TCM, which was playing 20th Century Fox's How Green Was My Valley (1941, John Ford). It was already well into the second half of the film, and I let it play on for 10-15 minutes. During that time, the film brought me to tears four separate times. I couldn't help but laugh at how ridiculous this was, nothing destroys me like this film.

Normally, I'm not a crier. The exception to that is when I'm watching a movie directed by John Ford, but even by John Ford's standards, this was a lot. When I realized that the film was gearing up for its climax, I made myself get up and turn it off.

It's an adaptation how Richard Llewellyn's novel of the same name, about a Welsh coal-mining community seen through the eyes of the youngest child of the family as he grows up. However, it was adapted into film by John Ford, so the film is altogether an Irish affair. The film has one Welsh actor, Rhys Williams, who plays Dai Bando, a local boxer.

Like the novel, the film is centered around Huw (Roddy McDowell,) the youngest of the Morgans, and the home of his coal-mining family. Seen through the eyes of Huw, the movie depicts a town where nothing ever seems to change, and yet everything is irrevocably lost. It is simultaneously one of the most comforting and devastating films ever made.

Typical of a Ford film, every moment, every gesture, and each beat of stillness are full of meaning. Huw's brothers tower over him, we see the characters from their backs, and their shadows haunt the walls. Each life-changing event in Huw's life is catastrophic in its own way, and yet every time, the following day we see the village restored to normality, as if nothing occurred. People fall away, life changes, and though his entire life is contained in this community, he begins to find himself alone.

Also typical of a Ford film, the film is an exploration of what it means to be a community. In fact, it's a rather damning examination of what it means for a community to remain unchanged, in spite of the world around it, and the lives of those in it. The collateral damage from this stasis manifests itself in the lives of its inhabitants. For the community and the mining corporation to remain the unchanged, its people are made disposable.

Somewhat sadly, the films is mostly remembered today as an answer to a trivia question. How Green Was My Valley won 5 academy awards, with Outstanding Motion Picture (awarded to the producer, Darryl F. Zanuck) and Best Director (awarded to John Ford) among them. Given that these wins came over Citizen Kane, these wins are now perceived somewhat infamously as short-sighted folly. This should not be so. However, How Green Was My Valley remains in high critical esteem, and is well-loved by those who've seen it.

Personally, How Green Was My Valley is my second favourite film of all-time, I believe it to be the finest film John Ford ever made, and John Ford is, in my estimation, the single greatest director to have ever worked in film. If a better film has ever come out of Hollywood, then I haven't seen it.

P.S. I also cried once while looking up these photos, and then once more while reading some of the closing narration of the film. This film is to me as 'Li'l Brudder" is to Homestar Runner. All this, and I didn't say a single word about it's two highest-billed stars, Maureen O'Hara and Walter Pidgeon.
