Rio Bravo

By Howard Hawks

Synopsis

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.

Rio Bra­vo, which embod­ies the myth of the west­ern, is also its reverse: a film of decline and gen­tle­ness, where the vir­ile action and the land­scapes, tra­di­tion­al pil­lars of the genre, fade behind the char­ac­ters, the cama­raderie, slow­ness and reverie.
