Review of Red River (1948) by John R — 30 Jan 2016
Red River benefits from a memorable score, John Wayne's performance, an excellent use of visual repetition as a narrative device, and the overall feel of a very western story. The great distances seen in the daytime are perfectly contrasted with the stirring and brooding natures of the shallow and murky night-time scenery.
John Wayne does an excellent job as the conflicted, power-hungry, and ambitious figure.
