Dark Journey

Date of Review:  Apr 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: The Best of the West
Review: (A shorter review of this video appears in my "10 Best Westerns" review)

This is the movie for which the Duke should've gotten the Oscar for. Not that Rooster Cogburn isn't a great character, but it's Ethan Edwards that shows that
he...

Doorway to Understanding...

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2000
Review: The Searchers (1956)

The Searchers is a movie framed in doorways, from the first scene when Martha Edwards opens the front door of her cabin only to see the tiny figure of Ethan Edwards approaching in the distance, until the end of the...

THE SEARCHERS: Classic Director John Ford Corrects His Myth.

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 1999
The Bottom Line: THE SEARCHERS is, if not John Ford's masterpiece in the Western Genre, certainly one of his most mature explorations the phrase -- The Winning of the West.
Review: John Ford once said, given a choice between facts and myth, he would print the myth.

From Ford's earliest silent films, such as THE IRON HORSE (1924) through his l939 groundbreaking Western STAGECOACH (which made John Wayne a star), the...

What I Found About The Searchers: It's Decent

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2007
The Bottom Line: Least of all for this waste of a box
Review: John Ford won four Oscars for Best Director. That s a hell of an achievement in any film era, especially in these days when directors work when they want not when the studio makes them and many are lucky to direct four movies at all. Ford, however,...

Trail Blazers

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: for those who desire to see the seminal Western from a master director at the top of his game, devour this film
Review: It is difficult to distil down to one single idea how the story elements in the 1956 film The Searchers work to create such a palpable and at times visceral visual treat. The film is the seminal western. It shows the white man Ethan Edwards as a...

Seek Out The Searchers

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 1999
Review: By Max Scheinin.

Look at the picture planted next to these words. It's a portrait of a grinning John Wayne, his chin covered in bristles, his eyes a-gleamin', ready to take to the open range. What is it you'd imagine from the film that this...

Lost and Found

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2000
Review: I first saw ?The Searchers?, which is widely considered to be the greatest Western ever made and one of the greatest films ever made, about 10 years ago, and wasn?t impressed. I didn?t have very much experience with Westerns, and even less...

Lucas, Spielberg, Scorsese in Love

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2000
Review: What is The Searchers, and why is it so enamored by the critics of the post-modern era of film? Why do I love this film so? How many times has this shown up in modern cinema? First, I must say this film is probably not going to be liked by viewers...
