John Ford (dramatist)

For other uses see John Ford (disambiguation)

John Ford (1586 – ca. 1639) was an English playwright and poet of the Jacobean and Caroline eras born in Ilsington in Devon.

Origins

John Ford was baptised 17 April 1586 at Ilsington Church, Devon, and was the second son of Thomas Ford (1556–1610) of Bagtor in the parish of Ilsington, by his wife Elizabeth Popham (d.1629) of the Popham family of Huntworth in Somerset. Her monument exists in Ilsington Church. Thomas Ford's grandfather was John Ford (d.1538) of Ashburton (the son and heir of William Ford of Chagford,) who purchased the estate of Bagtor in the parish of Ilsington, which his male heirs successively made their seat. The Elizabethan mansion of the Fords survives today at Bagtor as the service wing of a later house appended in about 1700.

Life and work

Ford left home to study in London, although more specific details are unclear — a sixteen-year-old John Ford of Devon was admitted to Exeter College, Oxford on 26 March 1601, but this was when the dramatist had not yet reached his sixteenth birthday. He joined an institution that was a prestigious law school but also a centre of literary and dramatic activity — the Middle Temple. A prominent junior member in 1601 was the playwright John Marston. (It is unknown whether Ford ever actually studied law while a resident of the Middle Temple, or whether he was strictly a gentleman boarder, which was a common arrangement at the time).

'John Ford' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:

Famous quotes by John Ford:

"He's already got one,"

"I suspect that the whale that approached thought he was a harbor seal splashing."

"Whilst we strive / To live most free, we're caught in our own toils."

"Nice philosophy/ May tolerate unlikely arguments,/ But heaven admits no jest."

"We can drink till all look blue."

"It is easier to get an actor to be a cowboy than to get a cowboy to be an actor."

"Revenge proves its own executioner."

"I am... a mushroom; On whom the dew of heaven drops now and then."

"Delay in vengeance gives a heavier blow"

"You can speak well if your tongue can deliver the message of your heart."

"Electronics is clearly the winner of the day."

"They are the silent griefs which cut the heart-strings."

"How did I get to Hollywood? By train."

"Anybody can direct a picture once they know the fundamentals. Directing is not a mystery, it's not an art. The main thing about directing is: photograph the people's eyes."

Que Serais Je Sans Toi

Paroles : Louis Aragon
Musique : Jean Ferrat
J'ai tout appris de toi
Sur les choses humaines
Et j'ai vu désormais
Le monde à ta façon
J'ai tout appris de toi
Comme on boit aux fontaines
Comme on lit dans le ciel
Les étoiles lointaines
Comme au p
assant qui chante
On reprend sa chanson
Jusqu'au sens du frisson
J'ai tout appris de toi.
Que serais-je sans toi
Qui vins à ma rencontre
Que serais-je sans toi
Qu'un coeur au bois dormant
Que cette heure arrêtée
Au cadran de la montre
Que serai
s-je sans toi
Que ce balbutiement.
J'ai tout appris de toi
Pour ce qui me concerne
Qu'il fait jour à midi
Qu'un ciel peut être bleu
Que le bonheur n'est pas
Un quinquet de taverne
Tu m'as pris par la main
Dans cet enfer moderne
Où l'homme ne sa
it plus
Ce que c'est d'être deux
Tu m'as pris par la main
Comme un amant heureux.
Qui parle de bonheur
A souvent les yeux tristes
N'est-ce pas un sanglot
Que la déconvenue
Une corde brisée
Aux doigts du guitariste
Et pourtant je vous dis
Que l
e bonheur existe
Ailleurs que dans les rêves
Ailleurs que dans les nues
Terre, terre, voici
