Two Rode Together is one of the lesser-known John Ford westerns, notwithstanding the fact that it stars James Stewart and Richard Widmark. The film is in some respects similar to Ford's 1954 classic, The Searchers (both films were written by screenwriter Frank Nugent), although in Two Rode Together the motivations of the principal characters are considerably less personal. Two Rode Together also is relatively light on action scenes, but the complexity of Stewart's cynical character and his sometimes contentious relationship with Widmark's character makes it a compelling film. Two Rode Together also takes an unflinching and disapproving look at the unsympathetic reactions which "respectable" people had toward women who were forced to become Comanche squaws.
