darn good. Its got action, romance, and some comedy. I would recommend it.

films
I can truly say that there are few films of John Wayne's I have liked as I
fealt and still feel that he could'nt act unless he had an exceptinal director
such as John Ford or Henry Hathaway or Otto Preminger pulling it out of him.
This is one of the few exceptions. He is awkward in his love scenes with Gail
Russell, but he manages to pull the action scenes off well with the help of his
buddy Yakima Kanutt. He, too, must have felt that this script was for him,
becuase he put his own money into it.
If you can get by his sometime stiff acting, the story is what pulls this film
up above the rest of his many films. You can't go wrong with taking the time to
download this one. Gail Russell is perfect as the Quaker Maiden who nurses him
back to health. The location is Monument Valley, Utah where he filmed many of
his westerns. It was one of Ford's favorite places to film (She Wore a Yellow
Ribbon, Fort Apache, Cheyenne Summer etc.) This film stands the test of time and
is right up there with Wayne's masterpiece "The Quite Man".
MovieShame.
There have always been lots of movies that show or exploit sex, but far fewer
that try to explore it seriously, as a rich, meaningful subject, whether
psychological or social...
