The cast and director lineup is strong, but the whole film is like a running account, neither fun nor funny, love is flat and there is almost no...

No one has made a Western as big as John Ford, and no one has shown so much humanity in a Western like that. The plot is not so important, what matters is how Ford shows all kinds of vivid people in each scene, showing the chivalrous tenderness that belongs to his...

The mise-en-scene is comfortable, and the scenes where some events are done in a puff of dust are very good. It's a bit "talking" indeed. The carriage overturned, and the bridge section of the telegraph line next to it, I don't know if "Five Golden Flowers" was affected from...

1. Hear Foster's "Beautiful Dream God" and "Lovely Family", so familiar and kind! 2. Surprisingly found that the heroine is Xiulan Temple! At the age of 20, she is no longer the cute little angel she was when she was a few years old, but her eyes are still bright and clear, and her smile is still pure and...

In the 1948 film, I didn't expect that the Indians won in the end, and the coach who was proud and underestimated the enemy was killed. Of course, the Americans still regard his heroic death as a Legion glory. . . The American spirit of that...

great western director
The plot is not a typical western.
John Ford is the greatest director of Westerns, and he can handle even a simple group of people walking by. He has his own special shooting location, and in that environment, it matches his lens.
Ford has been a director since the silent film era, so his control... -

ride one of three
Shortly after the end of World War II, some important directors either stopped writing or lost their creative motivation. Ford, a veteran of the studio era, was such an active veteran filmmaker who remained at the heart of the movie scene after the war.
Because of the Western's irrefutable, colonial...

[the regiment is getting ready to attack - Col. Thursday scans the horizon with his binoculars]
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: I don't see them. Not a one.
Captain Yorke: Well, they're down there, sir... among the rocks.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Have you seen 'em, Captain?
Captain Yorke: I don't have to - I know.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: How?
Captain Yorke: 'Cause if I were Cochise, that's where I'd take up position.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: And that dust cloud beyond?
Captain Yorke: It's an Apache trick. Probably squaws and children draggin' mesquite.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: [dubious, sarcastically] Very ingenious, Captain. You make me suspect your Cochise has studied under Alexander the Great, or Bonaparte at the least. Gentlemen, march your troops. We'll charge in a column of fours.
Captain Yorke: Mounted in fours? That's suicide, Colonel! I tell you they're down there...
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Captain Yorke, you're relieved of command of your troop. There's no room in this regiment for a coward.
Captain Yorke: [angrily throws down his glove in front of Col. Thursday] At your service, sir!
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Bugler, pick up Captain Yorke's gauntlet. I'm no duellist, Captain. I will decide whether I will answer you with pistols or a general court martial. You will remain on the ridge... in safety... with the supply train. Take O'Rourke with you.

[in the storeroom at Meacham's trading post, the soldiers find boxes marked "Bibles" - Col. Thursday tells the men to open them - when they do, they find kegs of whiskey instead]
Sgt. Quincannon: Bibles, sir!
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: [Col. Thursday hands a cup to Sgt. Mulcahy] Sergeant, pour me some scripture.
[Sgt. Mulcahy dips the cup into a keg and hands it to Col. Thursday. He takes a sip and spits it out]
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: What's in this? Brimstone and sulfur?
Silas Meacham: You know what it is and I'm entitled to keep it.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Your license may permit you to keep a medicinal store of whiskey, but this is no whiskey.
Silas Meacham: Perhaps you're not used to frontier whiskey.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: I don't know... I've tasted most everything.
[to Sgt. Mulcahy]
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Sergeant, you a judge of whiskey?
First Sgt. Festus Mulcahy: [looks around at the others] Uh, well, sir, some people say I am and some say I'm not, sir.
Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: [hands him the cup] Tell me what you make of this.
First Sgt. Festus Mulcahy: [takes a drink - makes a face at Meacham - takes another drink] Well, uh, it's better than no whiskey at all, sir.
