Our Classic Movie Nights series heads West as we screen Howard Hawks’ Western masterpiece Rio Bravo, starring John Wayne, Dean Martin, and Ricky Nelson.
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.
Disregarded at the time of its release, and still underrated by many critics, Rio Bavo is finally coming into its own as one of director/producer Howard Hawks’ final great films.
