Red River

One of the finest westerns ever made, director Howard Hawks' masterpiece features impassioned performances, stunning cinematography and grand adventure. John Wayne stars as Tom Dunson, a self-made cattle baron who'll do anything to protect his way of life. So when plummeting livestock values demand that he and his adopted son (Montgomery Clift) drive their herd through the treacherous Chisholm Trail, Tom proves he'll risk anything to reach his destination...even his own sanity.
