The Searchers

Watched this John Wayne movie the other day. The story is about a man whose brothers family is massacred by Indians and he and a boy adopted by the family trail the Indians trying to recover a young sister stolen.

Family life in the frontier is portrayed, John Wayne is John Wayne and some comical Swedish immigrants play a part. An interesting aside is a couple of men fight over a girl but show great manners in the process..in a comical way.

In the end the girl is recovered and despite John Wayne's stated intention to kill the girl who has " gone Indian" he does not.

A well filmed well done Western.
