Review of Rio Bravo (1959) by Lady D — 01 Apr 2008
One of the greatest westerns ever made. Howard Hawks has taken a fairly simple story and made it thoroughly engrossing thanks to a dynamic cast and some incredibly cinematic moments. The cast are amazing throughout, but it's the range of mood that really shines.
Plenty of action, thrills, comedy and romance are spread throughout and are accentuated by a powerful musical score. The brief musical numbers from Martin and Nelson are great and Angie Dickinson.....
WOW! A classic masterpiece, not to be missed!!
