Description

Westerns once ruled Hollywood. The quintessential American film genre. A mythology rooted in our identity. Survival, betrayal, redemption, revenge. A raw view of the untamed west, romanticized, yet rugged. A symbol of freedom and the American dream.

Rio Bravo (1959)
A small-town sheriff in the American West enlists the help of a disabled man, a drunk, and a young gunfighter in his efforts to hold in jail the brother of the local bad guy.

Perhaps the best โ€œhangout filmโ€ of all time, Howard Hawks is in fine form as he directs a stellar cast including John Wayne, Dean Martin, and Ricky Nelson in an unforgettable western.
