This 1948 John Wayne classic directed by John Ford has never before been on DVD, is rarely seen, and yet stands out as one of Duke's very best films.
Harry Carey, Jr. and Pedro Armendáriz join Duke as outlaws who find a mother and baby stranded in the desert. After the mother (Mildred Natwick) dies, the three decide they must get the baby to safety, and set out on a long journey through the hot desert that will prove to be the most difficult undertaking of their lives.
One of the most humorous and touching scenes shows the three oiling the baby's skin with wheel grease to protect it from the boiling sun. John Ford's brilliance as a director has never been more evident.
This film is a western with a strong Christmas theme of redemption, making it particularly unique and profound. An impressive cast includes John Ford regulars Ward Bond, Hank Worden, Francis Ford and Ben Johnson. For fans of classic westerns and of John Wayne and John Ford, this is an absolute must for the collection. It is a favorite at Movie Magic USA! We consider it to be one of the finest films ever made.
