The Searchers

Frequently regarded as an all-time classic, this overly racist display of anti-Native filmmaking does not pass the test of time. Hard to watch by today’s standards, and impossible to justify. Shame on John Wayne.

An entertaining epic with influential camera work, master class writing, and a color pallet that would bring Edgar Allen Poe out of depression. A enjoyable classic with all the fun of a great western.

This film, which has often been considered as one of the greatest & more influential films of its time, is difficult & frustrating to watch due to its obvious racism towards Native Americans.

8/26/26: Ew. Fucj you Vera Miles you’re so annoying. Historically inaccurate and racist propaganda version of Taken.

Good film, quality characters, interesting plot, obvious cringy 50s movie choices but overall a great film.

The best. My favorite John Wayne and John ford movie. A must see.
