THE SEARCHERS [BLU-RAY]

Details

• Release Year: 1956
• Genre: Adventure, Drama, Western
• Plot: Working together for the 12th time, John Wayne and director John Ford forged The Searchers into an indelible image of the frontier and the men and women who challenged it. Wayne plays ex-Confederate soldier seeking his niece, captured by Comanches who massacred his family. He won't surrender to hunger, thirst, the elements or loneliness. And in his five-year search, he encounters unexpected: his own humanity. Beautifully shot by Winton C. Hoch, thrillingly scored by Max Steiner and memorably acted by a wonderful ensemble including Jeffrey Hunter, Vera Miles, Natalie Wood and Ward Bond, The Searchers endures as 'a great film of enormous scope and breathtaking physical beauty' (Danny Peary, Guide for the Film Fanatic).
