Searchers: 50th Anniversary Special Edition, The (Widescreen)
Last Minute Sales & Specials
Working together for the 12th time, John Wayne and director John Ford forged "The Searchers" into a landmark Western, offering an indelible image of the frontier and the men and women who challenged it. Wayne plays an ex-Confederate soldier seeking his niece, captured by the Comanches who massacred his family. He won't surrender to hunger, thirst, the elements or loneliness. And in his five-year search, he encounters something unexpected: his own humanity. Beautifully shot by Winton C. Hoch, thrillingly scored by Max Steiner and memorably acted by a wonderful ensemble including Jeffrey Hunter, Vera Miles, Natalie Wood and Ward Bond, "The Searchers" endures as "a great film of enormous scope and breathtaking physical beauty." (Danny Peary, "Guide For The Film Fanatic").
