Review of The Searchers (1956) by Stephen P — 11 Feb 2017
Great movie. The predecessor to the films of the 70's with similar themes and especially John Wayne's performance is iconic, truly remarkable and influential. But, honestly, I don't see how this movie less "racist" then "The Birth of a Nation".
This one is hailed whereas Birth is condemned (althought it is secretly hailed of course). The greatness of both movies in that they show how things were, such were times, they are not racist, and they don't have to show everything in a way as it "should be", tolerant way, as modern SJWs demand.
There is no tolerance in distorting facts and history.
