Dated and silly. John Wayne's character is very unlikable. He is not a flawed character a la Travis Bickle, he is just a douche. And why did Debbie suddenly changed her mind and wanted to go back with Ethan and Martin?
Great cinematoraphy and composition. Poor acting, plot, and dialogue.. Did not really like this one 8 years 8 months ago -

I don't understand where this film gets it's reputation from. I'm sure there's a lot going on beneath the surface that i'm not aware of, but the script and performances were dissappointng. I prefer other John Ford pictures to this one. 11 years 4 months ago
