Review of Rio Bravo (1959) by Sylvester K — 24 Oct 2014
A small town in Texas is under-siege by a group of thugs after the sheriff has caught one of the thugs. Together with the town's inhabitants and a vagabond, they must protect everyone else from harm.
It's a little bit too long in my opinion and the subplots were unnecessary but it was certainly fun and stupendous. I love the ensemble of Wayne, Martin and Nelson. Especially in their sing song segment, it wasn't directly related to the plot but it has it's little charm and showing the American Spirit.
The soundtrack is also incredibly amazing. it may not be as good as High Noon due to its cheerful tone, but nonetheless it's still a classic Western.
