Description

John Ford directs this classic Western starring John Wayne as Ethan Edwards, an ex-Confederate soldier who swears revenge after his brother's family is butchered by Comanches and his niece Debbie (Natalie Wood) is kidnapped. Accompanied by Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter), a young foundling raised by the family, Ethan sets out in search of the missing girl. But as their quest draws to a close, Martin begins to realise the extent to which Ethan has been dehumanised by his own thirst for revenge.
