VHS Movie Reviews of Red River [VHS]
Movie Review: THE DUKE WAS NEVER BETTER
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the great westerns. Wayne resonates with power in this film, and gives a superb, though very underappreciated performance ( by the Academy of Motion Pictures at least ), and Hawks definitely gave Ford a run for his money in directing this beautiful, and sweeping western epic, with its richly realised, often unfogettable characters, stampedes, gunfights, romance, and panoramic western vistas. Monty shines in his first movie, and Walter Brennan, John Ireland, and Joanne Dru are equally excellent. Classic in every sense of the word.Movie Review: WELL-TOLD TALE OF EXCITING CATTLE DRIVE
Summary: 5 Stars
"Red River" ranks with any western John Ford ever directed and it has John Wayne. Wayne turns in one of his best performances as a man who ages but remains tough and true to himself. The underrated Joanne Dru shows again that she was ahead of her time, portraying a physically and emotionally strong woman who bows to no man. Walter Brennan, a 3-time Oscar winner, gives another memorable turn as Wayne's long-time friend and conscience. The photography is stunning, as are the action scenes. Not to be missed.Movie Review: Dmitri Tiomkin composed the music to Rawhide as well
Summary: 4 Stars
The theme song of Rawhide - Seasons 1-3 went through my head while watching this movie.
I had just watched Gunfight at the O.K. Corral
which also shares the composer Dmitri Tiomkin.
This one one of the first roles for Montgomery Clift
and with John Wayne the acting is first rate for a western.
The long cattle drive is where the cowboy of the west made history.
The freedom of the open range and the six gun made a new sort of
culture that this western celebrates.
Movie Review: red river
Summary: 4 Stars
this is what you would call a classic western of its time.oh how times have changedMovie Review: red river
Summary: 5 Stars
the majority of the dvd's I purchase are old, and the actors /actresses
are no longer around, but I would recomend buying this dvd just for that
reason.
Summary of Red River [VHS]
Any short list of the all-time greatest Westerns is bound to include this 1948 Howard Hawks classic about an epic cattle drive. Red River features one of John Wayne's greatest performances. Like his Ethan Edwards in John Ford's 1956 masterpiece The Searchers, the Duke plays an isolated and unsympathetic man who is possessed by bitterness. Wayne is Texas rancher Tom Dunson, who adopts a young boy orphaned in an Indian massacre. That boy, Matthew Garth (played as an adult by Montgomery Clift in his screen debut), becomes Dunson's assistant and heir apparent--until Dunson's temper gets out of control during a long cattle drive and Matt intervenes to stop him. From that moment on, Dunson swears he will kill Matt. Red River has everything a great Western ought to have: a sweeping sense of history, spectacular landscapes, stampedes, gunfights, Indian attacks, and, of course, Walter Brennan as Dunson's crusty old cook and comic sidekick, Nadine Groot. As a special bonus, the film also features the legendary Harry Carey (upon whom Wayne would base some of his gestures in The Searchers) and his son Harry Carey Jr., who became a fixture in Ford and Hawks Westerns. Red River is essential for anyone who loves Westerns, or movies in general. This one's a real beaut. --Jim EmersonJohn Wayne Video
