Review of The Searchers (1956) by Daniel W — 26 Nov 2011
"That'll be the day..." Though it's probably a bit harsh sometimes in its depiction of the Native Americans, you can't dispute the influence of The Searchers. I mean, there's a scene near the beginning, when they uncover the burned-out home, that Star Wars borrows from quite liberally.
I also loved the fight at the wedding towards the end, and the last shot of Wayne right at the finish is superb.
