UPSTREAM + FRANCIS FORD: THE OLDER BROTHER

Director: JOHN FORD

60 minutes, USA, 1927


Long considered among Ford’s lost classics, IFTA is proud to present Upstream, recently rediscovered and restored in New Zealand. Screening for only the second time in Europe, this charming vaudeville comedy gem will premiere at the John Ford Ireland Film Symposium. 

IFTA welcomes leading film historian Charles Barr to Dublin to discuss Ford’s silent films and the influence of his brother Francis on Ford’s early work. This is part of a double bill with Upstream.

Showing as part of John Ford Ireland: Film Symposium 2012
