Model Ford

Hi Gary!

Fine piece! The issue of the Fox box set nicely coincides with the publishing in France of my translation of McBride's Ford biography. Have you ever read my Ford piece in "American Directors"? It was 25 years ago and I would write it differently today but on the whole I don't think it was too bad.... One of the Fords I really want to see again is "Up the River" which is in the set. Also the Shirley Temple one. Almost everything else I know so well, but still I'll buy the set.

Best

JP
