How Green Was My Valley is a 1941 American drama film directed by John Ford, adapted by Philip Dunne from the 1939 novel of the same title by Richard Llewellyn. It stars Walter Pidgeon, Maureen O'Hara, Anna Lee, Donald Crisp, and a young Roddy McDowall.
It tells the story of the Morgans, a hard-working Welsh mining family, from the point of view of the youngest child Huw, who lives with his affectionate and kind parents as well as his sister and five brothers, in the South Wales Valleys during the late Victorian era. The story chronicles life in the South Wales coalfields, the loss of that way of life and its effects on the family.
The soundtrack was composed and conducted by Alfred Newman, who, at the time, had acquired a solid reputation as a musician with a marked intelligence in supplying films with music. In his career he had amassed a total of 46 Oscar nominations, resulting in nine Oscars, the most so far won by any individual in film history.
