About this product

Product Information

Donovan's Reef is a comedy starring John Wayne that was originally released in 1963 and directed by John Ford. John Wayne plays a retired Navy man named Michael who lives a relatively quiet life on an island in the Pacific. He lives in company with his friends, also former Navy men, who are accustomed to spending their days in the bar drinking beer and getting into brawls or scraps unnecessarily. Michael owns the bar and therefore is the appointed ringleader of the group, although he is known to contribute to things getting out of hand. At a given point during Donovan’s Reef, one of Michael's friend's daughters comes into town and he begins to fall in love. Michael decides he wants to leave his brawling days behind and continues to pursue his direct interest. The DVD version of Donovan’s Reef became available on DVD in 2011. The comedy DVD is available for viewing in widescreen and standard and has been remastered for optimal viewing.

  • Donovan s Reef with John Wayne

    Excellent family film. This is what the parents of baby boomers watched and shared with baby boomers Classic and fun romantic. We love watching and remembering how our parents shared this with us over and over again. Nostalgic watching and remembering how much our parents enjoyed it and sharing with our grandchildren.

  • Island Romance

    `This is an old favorite. The theme song, "Pearly Shells," keeps running through my mind. I particularly like the role of Elizabeth Allen, the New England woman checking up on Island morals!

  • I love this movie. Of course, there are some corny parts, but overall the movie was ahead of its time. Love John Wayne and Lee Marvin.

    The DVD is in good condition and played perfectly, no flaws.

  • Donovan's Reef is a great title and to the point.

    A really good action movie with all actors doing the best in all scenes. Both John Wayne and Lee Marvin are the best in all movies they have been in.

  • Part of my Christmas collection.

    It's not only action. The story has been part of my Christmas collection since I got the VHS tape almost twenty years ago.
