Plot: As a Civil War veteran spends years searching for a young niece captured by Indians, his motivation becomes increasingly questionable.Unbelievably I finally got around to watching The Searchers for the first time yesterday after being in my collection for years Unwatched.
What an amazing film. Stunning photography, great acting...especially by John Wayne. Ahead of its time story dealing with themes of racism violence and more.
It's images and story are stuck in my head. Time to seek out more John Ford/Wayne westerns.
