The Searchers
Like Monument Valley, where it was filmed, this masterpiece western of get even for and reunion from gaffer John Ford is massive and unmissable. It touches the tenderness of racist darkness and cleanses itself in the process. As John Wayne's Ethan Edwards sets loophole to suppress both the Comanche butcher of his mate's family and the abducted niece who, in his eyes, has turned natural, his five-year quest becomes a search concerning his own soul. Jeffrey Huntress is the conscience along for the ride, but it's the intricacy of Wayne's antihero that reveals him as a rootless pioneer, forever framed in the doorways of line homesteads of which he can never grace part. Ford's marvy allegory is of a people lost and set up.
