She Wore a Yellow Ribbon
1949. USA. Directed by John Ford. Screenplay by Frank Nugent, Laurence Stallings. Cinematography by Winton Hoch. With Joanne Dru, John Agar, Victor McLaglen. In one of his finest performances, Wayne plays retiring Captain Nathan Brittles in this second film of Ford's great Cavalry Trilogy (with Fort Apache [1948] and Rio Grande [1950]). Reunited after only a year with Dru, his Red River (1948) costar, Wayne at forty-two is already an older man, uncertain about his future and looking back on his past. The film's retirement ceremony is pure Ford, and one of the great moments in film history. The Remingtonesque Technicolor landscapes of Monument Valley are unforgettable. Preservation funded by the Film Foundation and American Movie Classics. 103 min.
