If You Like Westerns Packed
With Action, This Is Your Dish
By Bob Bennett
RED RIVER” is the story of
the first herd of cattle
driven over the famed Chisholm
trail to the railroad—and mar
ket—in Kansas. It’s a significant
piece in the mosaic of the his
tory of the West.
Howard Hawks has made of
“Red River” a first rate action
and adventure picture—in
- short, a pretty
good western—
but he’s missed
by a mile what
the ads claim
- he achieved —
namely, one of the three great
westerns of all time.
“Red River” tells its story
simply and directly and without
weaving into that story nuances
of character and some of the
background against which the
drama is being played. It can’t,
for instance, bat in the same
league with a film like “the
Ox-Bow Incident” or “Stage
coach.”
Aside from that, however,
you’ll find the film good west
ern stuff—if you like good west
ern stuff.
The story concerns efforts of
John Wayne, a Texas rancher,
to drive some 10,000 head of
cattle to the nearest railroad so
they can be moved to market.
His foster son, Montgomery
Clift—of the “Search” fame—
gets involved in a disagreement
with his Paw on whether to try
for the railroad they know is in
Missouri and take a chance on
rustlers, etc., or whether they
should try for one they think is
at Abilene, Kan., and not have
to worry about rustlers and
Indians.
Well, about 20 dead men. a
couple of stampedes and 90 min
utes later, the herd gets to
Abilene and the railroad.
