Review of The Searchers (1956) by Jon L — 17 Oct 2010
I don't know how people acted in the 1800s but everyone is a jerk in this film. Why is everyone so mean to each other? Regardless of people over emotional ties to people in this film, it was an interesting one to watch.
Revenge is a powerful thing, and it fuels John Wayne's quest. It had some amazing action shots and some brave stuntmen. It was a little drawn out for me, which found it hard to follow. The journey takes place over several years, but it was hard to tell as the characters didn't change at all.
It had good photography good cast. If you are into western style movies, go see this one for sure.
