Review of Fort Apache (1948) by Nicholas W — 11 Jun 2007
A brilliant piece of cinema, by a brilliant director. Fonda is obviously the star of the movie, but Wayne certainly plays a major role. The Native Americans are given a reasonably sympathetic portrayal in what is essentially a critique of Custer-style hero mythology.
