John Wayne was always entertaining in John Ford's films, but the Trilogy stands out as a superb grouping of post Civil War US Army scenic Westerns.
The actors change roles, but the characters are sympathetic to the period, with charming little cameos dotted throughout the action.
The Native Americans as usual appear to get something of a raw deal, but as in all Ford's Westerners do still get an element of respect.
Monument Valley does make for a traditional backdrop, and Maureen O'Hara is stunningly beautiful.
Movies like this always make for great viewing, and while they may be somewhat predictable, still have a place in our hearts.
