he still hasn't found what he's looking for

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2003
The Bottom Line: One of the two or three best westerns ever, Ethan is one of the most haunting and complex characters in film history.
Review: In most westerns, men kill each other with guns. The Searchers has a few scenes of gun-play, but the guts of the movie lie in the motivations of the main character, Ethan (John Wayne). What is he searching for and, more importantly why is he...

Review: The Searchers (1956)

The Searchers is a movie framed in doorways, from the first scene when Martha Edwards opens the front door of her cabin only to see the tiny figure of Ethan Edwards approaching in the distance, until the end of the...

The Searchers (1956)

Date of Review:  Sep 23, 1999
Review: "The Searchers" is a very good western, directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne, one of many films that they made together. Considered by many to be one of the best western films ever made, it falls short of that lofty standard. However, it is...

Lucas, Spielberg, Scorsese in Love

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2000
Review: What is The Searchers, and why is it so enamored by the critics of the post-modern era of film? Why do I love this film so? How many times has this shown up in modern cinema? First, I must say this film is probably not going to be liked by viewers...

Seek Out The Searchers

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 1999
Review: By Max Scheinin.

Look at the picture planted next to these words. It's a portrait of a grinning John Wayne, his chin covered in bristles, his eyes a-gleamin', ready to take to the open range. What is it you'd imagine from the film that this...

A Western Epiphany

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2000
Review: "That'll be the day." Uttering the line that would later be turned into a classic of Tex-Mex pop by Buddy Holly, John Wayne pours scorn on the notion that he might abandon the obsessive quest that drives him in John Ford's masterful Western, The...

The West has been Won

Date of Review:  Nov 15, 2000
Review: Being a product of the 70s, I was never exposed to western films. I had never seen one but there was no doubt in my mind that I hated them! After all, old men and unmarried uncles watch westerns. Girls do not. The Searchers has changed all that. I...
