I like it more the longer I think about it. A beautiful, poignant story of painful sacrifice. A man doing the right thing, even at the cost of his own dreams of happiness. Brilliant narrative framing device of reminiscing characters. Amazing performances & cinematography.

Jimmy was just about to croak himself to sleep and yet he was playing a young man. This movie was genuinely too uncomfortable to sit through. The acting dude…

A very good western directed by one of the most iconic film directors John Ford and starring two of the most legendary actors in John Wayne and James Stewart.

While the story and cinematography are both excellent, it’s the dynamic between James Stewart and John Wayne that really made this great for me. 9/10

James Stewart and John Wayne were great, and their roles were a bit different than what you usually see from them. There's plenty of comedy that I was surprised to see, but every character in here was entertaining too. Will be among my favorite Westerns.

I could watch this a hundred times and still be fascinated by these two actors.

Seeing Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne on screen together did something to my filmic mind that can thankfully never be undone! What a film, they simply don’t make westerns like this anymore.

This is a really good story, but it has way too much to do with politics. I wanted there to a little more action. A good shootout or something. Twist ending was a bit predictable.

Actually a really good western with John Wayne and James Stewart. The story was very good and had a cool twist.

Interesting take on the dilemma between the rule of law and the choice of violence; this main topic is not very subtly explained to the spectator. Gorgeous cinematography
