Movie giants James Stewart and John
Wayne co-starred for the only time in
legendary director John Ford’s great Western, a soulful film with a profoundly
valedictory quality. An aged senator returns to a dusty town for the funeral
of an old friend, and the subsequent tale exposes the gulf between fact and
legend. With Vera Miles, Lee Marvin, Edmond O’Brien, Andy
Devine, Woody Strode.
(US 1962) 123 min.
