John Ford (STAGECOACH) takes on the legend of the O.K. Corral shoot-out in this multilayered, exceptionally well-constructed western, one of the director's very best films. Henry Fonda (YOUNG MR. LINCOLN) cuts an iconic figure as Wyatt Earp, the sturdy lawman who sets about the task of shaping up the disorderly Arizona town of Tombstone, and Victor Mature (VIOLENT SATURDAY) gives the performance of his career as the boozy, tubercular gambler and gunman Doc Holliday. Though initially at cross-purposes, the pair ultimately team up to confront the violent Clanton gang. Affecting and stunningly photographed, My Darling Clementine is a story of the triumph of civilization over the Wild West from American cinema's consummate mythmaker.

For his only Civil War feature, director John Ford crafted a stirring true story of a Union cavalry raid into Confederate territory. With orders to destroy a railroad line and cut off enemy supplies, the colonel (John Wayne) in charge of the mission clashes with the army medical officer (William Holden) sent to accompany his unit. Constance Towers, Judson Pratt, Hoot Gibson also star. 120 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
