Product ReviewsShe Wore a Yellow Ribbon (DVD, 1949)

Perfect for the Movie story line

Classic collaboration between John Wayne and John Houston, set in the developing days of the old west shortly after the Indian up rising and defeat of General Custer at the Little Big Horn. John Wayne plays the lead as a aging & retiring Officer, placed in charge of teaching his young Lieutenants the experience of his years and what it takes to lead men into life threatening situations. All the time these 2 young bucks are fighting over the effections of the Post Commanders lovely young niece. Indian activity is at a fevers pitch, as John Wayne attempts to get the women to safety and protect the settlers for the indian threats. The movie culminates with the Old soldier trying to fend off an impending indian war, and his young officers coming of age. It is a classic among western movies with a great director, a great cast of likeable characters, tender and exciting plot lines, and the beautiful landscape of the southwest. It is a must see for the Western/Wayne buffs out there, and a great movie for the entire family to - you will not be disappointed.Read full review...

She Wore A Yellow Ribbon

Director John Fords frontier masterpiece boasts one of John Waynes
best performances as a cavalry officer in his final week of service.
As Capt. Nathan Brittles (Wayne) readies his troops for battle
against an indian tribe, his soldiers become involved in a series
of personal confrontations- especially when a lovely lady from the
east visits the fort (Joanne Dru), and captures the attention of
several of the young officers. Several good battle scenes, such
as a patrol fighting off an indian attack are in this movie, which
was the follow up to Fort Apache. The movie was an Academy Award
winner in 1949, and will definitely give you a full night of entertainment.
A must for collectors of John Wayne movies, lovers of westerns and
classic movies.Read full review...

John Wayne at his Cranky Best

She Wore a Yellow Ribbon is one of my favorite John Wayne films. Having it on DVD means I can see it any time I am in the mood. Great story; some actual history behind it. Love it.

A Treasure !

How delightful to return to the era of The Old West without being subjected to disgusting language and ignorant visuals ! The Duke at his " Hey Pilgrim " finest .Lovely Joanne Dru was no Katherine Hepburn - but she certainly rode sidesaddle in along dress more graciously than the latter . ( Can you picture Hepburn with a yellow ribbon in her hair ?!!! ) We knew it was historically inaccurate and could have cared less ! A fine and joyful example of films that were entertaining and could be enjoyed by the entire family . One Third of Director John Ford's terrific Triolgy of Westerns .Great fun !Read full review...

"She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" (DVD)

I've been changing out my VHS tapes to DVD when I'm able to find them. Well this particular John Wayne movie is one of those hard to find on DVD, so when you do find it, you should seriously think about purchsing it.
I can't say that there's anything that I dislike about the movie, it's a classic Wayne western. What I love about buying the movie on DVD, is the extras that have been added, the two most important to me, were the movie trailers and the interviewsRead full review...

Fan or no fan.

Not a great Wayne fan, I still found this (along with Rio Grande and Rio Bravo) interesting to see.
