Description
|
|
|
|
One of the best Westerns ever made—and a personal favorite of directors Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese—this 1956 classic was the 12th film John Wayne and director John Ford made together and epitomizes the careers of both men. An examination of racism and blind hatred, the film tells the story of a Confederate veteran who goes on a five-year quest for revenge after his kin are killed and his niece is abducted by Comanches. This 50th anniversary two-disc Ultimate Collector's Edition contains an introduction from Wayne's son Patrick, commentary by Ford biographer Peter Bogdanovich, two documentaries about the making of the film and its historical significance as well as reproductions of the filmmakers correspondence, the original press kit, and Dell comic, and 10 postcards with behind-the-scenes photos.
