The searchers
30 June 2006One of the best westerns. Directed by John Ford starring John Wayne.
John Wayne and Jeffrey Hunter spend years searching for Wayne’s niece (Natalie Wood), who was abducted as a child by Comanches. Far from a picaresque adventure yarn, The Searchers is director John Ford’s forceful meditation on racism, revenge and obsession — one of the most powerful ever filmed. And Wayne’s portrayal of a brutishly obsessed “savior” is downright frightening.
