Howard Hawks’s Red River (1948) is a muscular, morally complex Western anchored by towering performances and taut direction. The film follows Tom Dunson (John Wayne), a driven Missouri cattleman, and his adopted son Matt Garth (Montgomery Clift) as they drive a massive herd north to Kansas—an epic cattle drive that becomes a crucible for leadership, pride, and generational conflict.
