Another classic John Wayne film. These movies are all starting to blend together. It has a pretty good story about horses, but ultimately, it's the characters that lead the way, with perhaps the most interesting episode being the one with the Indian and the white girl. There, it was evident that someone had thought a bit more about something beyond just the humor that permeates this lighthearted film. It's not bad, but it's not exceptionally good either.
