What do you want to hear? It's excellent, but very much a western, so...

Yes, its his best.

it isn't a movie about a dusty town, bandits, and a lone gunman at sunup

it's more of a period piece than your generic western
>>

10/10 best movie ever, the moby dick of film

its directed by john ford, so yes its worth seeing. its also one of the best performances of john wayne. Ford mixes comedy with tragedy in a way i never seen anyone else do.

Poorly?
>>
it's pretty much one of the best of those older types of westerns

that's not saying much though
>>
It's a beautiful film, but you'll enjoy it more if you're familiar with the western as a genre.

I tend to think of it as more of a character study.

>>63679026
Na, its great. The tragedy of the sisters but the comedy/romance of vera mills and jeffery hunter. The wedding scene.etc
>>
>>63678987
Because that movie is objectively based. Also not a western so much as it is a movie set in and about the west.
