Hard To Be Free: 13 American Stories
The Searchers
Directed by
John Ford
Considered by many to be the greatest Western ever made, this John Ford VistaVision classic makes fascinating first steps toward deconstructing the genre’s legacy as its lead character’s vengeful anti-Indian obsession pushes John Wayne into clear antihero territory. We’re thrilled to finally bring this masterpiece to Central Cinema as part of our July “Hard To Be Free” megaseries!
An American Civil War veteran (John Wayne) embarks on a years-long journey to rescue his niece (Natalie Wood) from the Comanches after the rest of his brother’s family is massacred.
“Undoubtedly one of the greatest Westerns ever made. For sheer scope, guts and beauty I can think of no picture to compare with it.” – Hollywood Reporter
