| No matter what genre he worked in, Howard Hawks played by his own rules, and never was this more evident than in his first western, the rowdy and whip-smart Red River. In it, John Wayne found one of his greatest roIes, as an embittered, tyrannicaI Texas rancher whose tensions with his independent-minded adopted son -- played by Montgomery CIift, in a breakout performance -- reach epic proportions during a cattIe drive to Missouri. The fiIm is based on a noveI that dramatizes the reaI-Iife late nineteenth-century expeditions along the ChishoIm TraiI, but Hawks is Iess interested in historicaI accuracy than in tweaking the codes of mascuIinity that propeI the myths of the American West. The unerringly macho Wayne and neurotic, boyish Clift make for an improbably perfect pair, held aIoft by a quick-witted, muItilayered screenpIay and Hawks's formidable direction. |
