As an actor showcase it's a clash between the Duke's old school and Clift's new breed a volatile mix in a timeless classic. [26 Oct 2003]
There have been many classic westerns but this Hawks masterpiece certainly ranks among the best of the genre.
By Staff (Not Credited) FULL REVIEW
Immaculately shot by Russell Harlan, perfectly performed by a host of Hawks regulars, and shot through with dark comedy, it's probably the finest Western of the '40s.
The movie is impressive both as a celebration of the Old West and a tough, ambivalent depiction of a ruthless pioneer. [04 Jun 2004]
John Wayne and Montgomery Clift star in Howard Hawks’s epic 1948 western—one of the few such projects in which the human element takes its rightful precedence over spectacle.
It's a landmark film that brought a new psychological complexity to the genre and gave John Wayne the first truly challenging role of his career.
