Summary of Stagecoach (Two-Disc Special Edition)
This landmark 1939 Western began the legendary relationship between John Ford and John Wayne, and became the standard for all subsequent Westerns. It solidified Ford as a major director and established Wayne as a charismatic screen presence. Seen today, Stagecoach still impresses as the first mature instance of a Western that is both mythic and poetic. The story about a cross-section of troubled passengers unraveling under the strain of Indian attack contains all of Ford's incomparable storytelling trademarks--particularly swift action and social introspection--underscored by the painterly landscape of Monument Valley. And what an ensemble of actors: Thomas Mitchell (who won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar as the drunken doctor), Claire Trevor, Donald Meek, Andy Devine, and the magical John Carradine. Due to the film's striking use of chiaroscuro lighting and low ceilings, Orson Welles watched Stagecoach over and over while preparing for Citizen Kane. --Bill DesowitzNine disparate travelers are thrust together on a Stagecoach destined for Apache territory...and movie immortality. As the Ringo Kid director John Ford casr a lanky veteran of 70 B-movies serials and shorts named John Wayne. Each rifle shot and closeup rang out the news: a new star is born. Claire Trevor Thomas Mitchell (his Academy Award winning* performance) and others made memorable imptressions. Stunt legend Yakima Canutt provided hair-raising thrilles. And 17 American folk songs formed the basis of an Oscar winning* score. This adventure ushered in a 30-year era of great Westerns many featuring its top practitioners Ford and Wayne.Running Time: 96 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC.
