The Searchers (1956) Audio Commentary
Monday, 1 June, 2015
This man, though not a real Native American, has a great head of hair RC-2015-101: The Searchers (1956) Your browser does not support this audio I've once again teamed up with the King of Commentaries himself, Tysto, to talk through another great western. We find much to like, love, and laugh at in John Ford's VistaVision classic. Discussion wanders between the winds like an eye-less Comache to cover the long shadow of influence cast by the film (Star Wars, Scorsese, Buddy Holly), the liabilities of Jeffrey Hunter's performance, and Tysto's fascinating family history (his ancestors once kidnapped Natalie Wood's sister!). We also extol the virtues of wearing suspenders with jeans (well, I do) and stare longingly at Mose Harper's ripped-to-shreds six-pack abs. Why not take off your spurs and join us? Show Notes The true story of Cynthia Ann Parker The "You Must Remember This" podcast episode about Wayne's war (non)record Jonathan Lethem's essay "Defending the Searchers" is actually viewable on Google Books George Chakiris played Bernardo in West Side Story Don't forget Zarban's site for tons of fan commentaries Download the mp3. iTunes.
