The Duke's best Western? That's what many say about this all-time classic from director John Ford. John Wayne is Ethan Edwards, whose search for a niece (Natalie Wood) kidnapped by Comanches becomes a lifetime obsession.

Greatest western ever! It had all of the elements. It definitely stands the test of time. Rotten Tomatoes puts this at 94%. Only question is how is it not at 100%?
An Underrated Western!

I have always grown up around western movies, as a kid I thought I would be the next John Wayne. What a great movie for a kid, but this movie takes the cake, I could watch it over and over and never get tired of it! “That’ll be the day”.
The sound on my copy of the movie is completely choppy.

Best Wayne and Ford collaboration ever made.
Great film, WRONG aspect ratio

Unfortunately, the film is presented in 16:9 aspect ratio and doesn’t do this beautiful film any justice. :(
Why only in Full Screen?

Wasn't The Searchers Shot in Widescreen VistaVision? Where is that Version?

My favorite John Wayne film. This is a powerful story with excellent acting by the entire cast. On my top five list of western films.
