    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...

    John Ford, 1948. It was a bit confusing and unclear, and the real battle was only a few minutes...

    The scene is spectacular. Indigenous versus white battle. Inexplicable victory ending, ending...

    Post-war Hollywood movies of the 1940s. John Ford. Western. One of the "Cavalry Trilogy". A tribute to the solidarity and solidarity of the military organization. no...

    75/100, he and he don't want much, just willing to win glory for the country. He and she don't want much, they just want to be like everyone...

    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...

Fort Apache quotes

  • [Co. Thursday has rejoined his men who are pinned down by the Apaches. RSM O'Rourke hands him a pistol]

    Lt. Col. Thursday: Sergeant-Major O'Rourke... my apologies, sir.

    RSM Michael O'Rourke: You can save them, sir, for our grandchildren.

  • [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.
