	Red River (1948)

		Red River was Howard Hawks' first western, a story often compared to its parallel epic on the high seas, Mutiny on the Bounty (1935).

	Critchley on Terrence Malick
		In _The Thin Red Line_ the voiceovers are male and plural.
		At the core of _The Thin Red Line_, then, is this experience of calm in the face of death, of a kind of peace at the moment of one's extinction that is the only place one may speak of immortality.
		The guiding theme is the insanity of war, the thin red line between the sane and the mad, and we are offered a series of more or less trite reflections on the meaninglessness of war.

	Film/Classic: Red River
		Cover of VHS tape of "Red River," a black-and-white film
		Wayne's portrayal of Dunson demonstrated that he could be a very good actor for he ages admirably in the film and his performance is memorable not only for its strength but also its subtlety.
		He is cocky, sensitive, tortured, romantic, headstrong, uncertain, fearful and respectful, and very expressive, all qualities that James Dean would embody a few years later in his brief but stunning career.

	Red River
		In the case of Red River this appears to have been exacerbated by a reading tradition that begins with Wood's and, via Oedipus, comes to be considered an exclusively masculine text allowing little room for marginal or alternative readings.
		The Oedipal theme deflects attention or concern from what Red River is ostensibly about; a great cattle drive across new and dangerous country to reach a market and realise the empire that has been built on the integrity, perseverance, and frontier nous of Tom Dunson.
		While Red River can be considered a boys' own rites-of-passage there are key moments that escape, or lie outside of, what has been conservatively defined as masculine.

	RED RIVER (1948)
		Starring John Wayne and Montgomery Clift in his first film role, Red River tells two stories: (1) the struggles faced during the first riding of the famed "Chisum Trail," and (2) the kindrid friendship between two men -- one young, one old -- who both strived to do right, no matter what the cost.
		Mixing just the right amount of hard-edge history, witty dialogue, dramatic narrative, and comedic romp, Red River stands as a great film, then (1948) and now.
		Over his forty year career as a director, Hawks made a movie for nearly every genre, whether it be comedy (Bringing Up Baby), gangster (Scarface), noir (The Big Sleep), science fiction (The Thing), musical (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes), or western (Red River).

	Amazon.co.uk: Red River [1949]: DVD
		It's interesting to read the reviews for Red River and see that they all more or less hail the film to be a western classic and a candidate for the all time great westerns list.
		Red River has everything a great Western ought to have: a sweeping sense of history, spectacular landscapes, stampedes, gunfights, Indian attacks, and, of course, Walter Brennan as Dunson's crusty old cook and comic sidekick, Nadine Groot.
		RED RIVER is a movie that must absolutely have a place in your library.

		The Robinson Film Center will not just be a theater, but a gathering place and a community builder — all which will dramatically increase the quality of life of Northwest Louisiana.

	Louis Riel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Portrayals of Riel's role in the Red River Rebellion include the 1979 CBC television film Riel and Canadian cartoonist Chester Brown's acclaimed 2003 graphic novel Louis Riel: A Comic-Strip Biography.
		The Red River Settlement was a community in Rupert's Land nominally administered by the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), and largely inhabited by First Nations tribes and the Métis, an ethnic group of mixed Cree, Ojibway, Saulteaux, French Canadian, Scottish, and English descent.
		Following the Red River Rebellion, large numbers of Métis travelled west and settled in the Saskatchewan Valley, especially along the south branch of the river in the country surrounding the Saint-Laurent mission (near modern Grandin, Saskatchewan).

	San Diego Metropolitan - The Reel Story
		"Suzhou River" is one of a group of films made for a television series.
		It is filmed with a hand-held camera, which makes the picture wobbly and sometimes difficult to watch, but also adds an immediacy and subjectivity that Ye thought would drag the viewer in some sense into the film.
		Ye was one of them, but since he was also the producer he waited until the end to do his film, by which time the money had run out.

	Tiomkin: Red River
		Red River is a magnificent film score, perhaps Tiomkin's best; and this package is excellent.
		Red River is commonly regarded as the most personal movie made by the legendary Howard Hawks, it sees John Wayne traveling out west to build an empire for himself, an epic tale by nature but one based not around scenery and fights, but people and their relationships, as most of the great westerns are.
		Listen to a few bars of Red River and there'll be no doubt you're listening to music telling some story from the old west.

	Suzhou he (2000)
		Sushou River shows us parts of Shanghai which rarely make it onto Western screens, and there's isn't a peasant, an emperor, a concubine or a red lantern in sight.
		Plot Summary: The river Suzhou that flows through Shanghai is a reservoir of filth, chaos and poverty, but also a meeting place for memories and secrets...
		This movie offers a sharp contrast to the historical revisionism of Zhang Yimou and others of the Fifth Generation of Chinese directors who seem happy to peddle a lot of costume dramas, which, fine as they are, are hardly progressive.

	MYSTIC RIVER
		River, in case you've missed the commercials, is the overly praised 24th film directed by Eastwood (hey, if Tarantino can get away with it, why not Clint?).
		It's kind of a backhanded compliment when people say River is his best film in years, especially when you consider those years included Absolute Power and True Crime.
		Maybe I've just seen too many episodes of The Practice, but the whodunit portion of Clint Eastwood's Mystic River was so easy to crack, I was able to do so while listening to Game Four of the Red Sox-Yankees ALCS in one ear.

	DVD Verdict Review - Red River
		The film takes up then 14 years later, and the Red River D ranch owned by Dunson is now a huge ranch, everything he said it would be.
		Red River is a wonderful movie, one of the greatest Westerns of all time, and certainly one of John Wayne's best.
		In perhaps the weakest moment of Red River, the showdown between Tom and Matt is broken up by Tess, who shoots near them and scolds them like schoolboys.

		The line on Red River is that it is an outstanding film that is reduced in force by the commercial necessity of a happy ending.
		Red River was the first of five films that director Howard Hawks would make with John Wayne.
		Red River is still a masterpiece, even if you stop the DVD player at the appropriate moment and instead imagine the dead protagonist of your choice.

	Red River (1948)
		Goofs: Errors in geography: In the scene where the cattle drive north crosses the Red River, the river is shown flowing east to west when it should be west to east.
		I understand the reason why a lot of people are disappointed over the ending of Red River.
		Plot Outline: Dunson is driving his cattle to Red River when his adopted son, Matthew, turns against him.

		Perhaps the greatest film from this part of his career was Howard Hawks' Red River, which is my second pick.
		I don't know where to look for Farnsworth in Red River, but he's in there somewhere, as is Shelley Winters, who supposedly plays one of the dancehall girls (according to the IMDb).
		However, for over 40 years before that, he could be seen in countless Westerns as an anonymous horseback rider and stuntman.

	RED RIVER
		RED RIVER has everything one comes to expect from a great Western – breathtaking panoramas, desperate bids for survival, pride in the land, gun fights, betrayal, indian raids, and John Wayne.
		CAPSULE REVIEW –– The most amazing thing about this movie is that it's Montgomery Clift's first film role.
		This tale has the Duke, as the biggest cattle rancher in Texas, forced to move his herd thousands of miles in order to keep total bankruptcy at bay.
