Review of My Darling Clementine (1946) by Sarfaraz A — 25 Jun 2011
My Darling Clementine Directed by John Ford Starring Henry Fonda, Victor Mature and Walter Brennan.
A classic western film, John Ford carries the actors in exactly the shape he wants (like Alfred Hitchcock with James Stewart and Cary Grant). Henry Fonda is no doubt a thorough performer in this great classic as Wyatt Earp. All characters give their brilliant performance. The way friendship bondage is solidified between Henry Fonda (as Wyatt Eart) and Victor Mature (as Doc Holiday); I guess it is one of charming scenes films usually give to audiences such as in John Woo's Hard-Boiled between Chow Yun-Fat (as Inspector Tequila Yuen) and Tony Liung Chiu-Wai (as Tony).
Film contains brilliant shots of west particularly that of scenery of Monument-Valley (trademark of John Ford in most of his western-films).
