“Red River” is a great movie no doubt, one of my favorites, but “The Searchers” is the greatest western ever made...
I would certainly agree that “The Searchers” is one of the best. Someone made a list of the twelve best westerns ever made, and both were on it. I have that one, too.
Winchester 73, Four Faces West, Rio Bravo. And I really like The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
Yes, The Searchers is on a rung all to itself. Another great film Wayne made was Stagecoach. Loved that one. And I’ll stay up any night to watch him and Maureen O’Hara paired together in a movie. Now that’s acting, that’s star power.
