Review of Stagecoach (1939) by Andy P — 02 Jun 2015
It's difficult to count the number of ways in which Stagecoach directly influenced American cinema. It revitalised a flailing genre and established it's most famous conventions. It made a star of the ruggedly handsome John Wayne and it was the first important milestone in a directorial career that would have John Ford recognised as one of America's most important film makers.
Stagecoach is a landmark Western with one of Wayne's finest roles, a three dimensional ensemble cast and virtues that hold up today.
