Review of Wagon Master (1950) by Ward G — 05 Oct 2010
Ford said something along the lines of this being the purest simplest western he ever made. That just about covers while not his best western 'purest' is a nice way of putting because it's certainly cinema at it's almost purest, since it has no conventional plot line and no specific main character it's the essence of cinema in that it's many characters interacting with each other and their environment in the same frame and no parlor tricks.
