Even if you’ve never seen John Ford’s THE SEARCHERS, you will have, undoubtedly, seen a film that owes it’s ’style’ to the film. DANCES WITH WOLVES, THE OUTLAW JOSIE WALES, UNFORGIVEN, JEREMIAH JOHNSON, and Start RANGE are unprejudiced a few westerns that have ‘borrowed’ from it, but THE SEARCHERS’ impact transcends the genre, itself; STAR WARS, THE ENGLISH PATIENT, THE LAST SAMURAI, even THE LORD OF THE RINGS have elements that can be traced succor to Ford’s 1956 ‘intimate’ yarn. When you add the fact that THE SEARCHERS also contains John Wayne’s greatest performance to the film’s merits, it becomes easy to inspect why it is on the short list of the greatest motion pictures ever made.
The situation is deceptively simple; after a Comanche raiding party massacres a family, taking the youngest daughter prisoner, her uncle, Ethan Edwards (Wayne), and adopted brother, Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter), inaugurate a long quest to try and rescue her. Over the course of years, a rich tapestry of characters and events unfold, as the nature of the pair’s motives are revealed, and bigoted, bitter Edwards emerges as a crooked man twisted on killing the ‘tainted’ white girl. Only Pawley’s cherish of his ’sister’ and determination to protect her stands in his plot, making the film’s climax, and Wayne’s portrayal of Edwards, an unforgettable experience.
With all of Ford’s unusual ‘touches’ clearly in evidence (the doorways ‘framing’ the film’s opening and conclusion, with a cave opening serving the same function at the film’s climax; the extensive consume of Monument Valley; and the nearly lurid palette of color highlighting key moments) and his reliance on his ’stock’ company of players (Wayne, Ward Bond, John Qualen, Olive Carey, Harry Carey, Jr, Hank Worden, and Ken Curtis), the film marks the emergence of the ‘mature’ Ford, no longer deifying the innocence of the era, but dealing with it in human terms, where ‘white men’ were as superb of savagery as Indians, frequently with less justification.

Featuring 18-year faded Natalie Wood in one of her first ‘adult’ roles, the ravishing Vera Miles as Pawley’s fancy interest, Wayne’s son Patrick in comical relief, and the harmonies of the Sons of the Pioneers accenting Max Steiner’s rich get, THE SEARCHERS is a timeless movie experience that becomes richer with each viewing.
It is truly a masterpiece!

Now considered possibly the greatest weatern movie of all-time, “The Searchers” was panned by the critics of its day for being fair another “ho-hum” John Wayne western. It took years, but fresh critics and viewers now perceive it as an anecdote of western filmmaking that perhaps will never be topped. If I had to determine one movie that represented the best of the west, it is undoubtedly “The Searchers”.
John Wayne gives his most intense acting performance as the sad and vengeful Ethan Edwards, who vows to ruin the Commanche raiders that murdered his beloved sister-in-law, brother, and took captive two of their daughters. Wayne easily carries the film on his substantial brooding shoulders, pursuing the Indians for over 5 years through summer and winter, ever relentless to survey their chief, “Scar”, unimaginative, and his captive nieces rescued.

Director John Ford is at the height of his creative powers in directing this western masterpiece. He weaves so many different themes and levels of interpretation into the film, that one discovers something unusual with each viewing. It would purchase a microscopic treatise to bring out all the subtle details.
Succinctly and to the point, “The Searchers” is a film that you will search for again and again, and admire it each time a bit more. It is that absolute best in western filmmaking!
