The Searchers (1956) Official Trailer - John Wayne, Jeffrey Hunter Movie HD 

Grandpa sounded like a cool guy. Imagine being both a fire chief and a cowboy? Every kid's dream

@@thegadflygang5381 I can imagine that

Don't be sad it's over, be happy it happened

Yep.The end of The Searchers always brings a lump to my throat. So does the end of Saving Private Ryan. And I can't watch "Ghost" because at the end when Patrick Swayze comes back from the dead and tells Demi Moore "I Love You Molly."and Whoopi says "Sam,It's Time." makes me bawl like a spanked Irish Catholic Schoolgirl!!!

😊😊

nope

@@Mr._Chievous stay in your lane

i thought ken curtis was jimmy dean at first. a festus for the rest of us.

My favorite Western is this one Tied for second The Wild Bunch 1969 Once Upon on a Time in the West 1968

S

POLITICS! Even way back... I quit watching Oscars, etc. in 1995 because of that.

@@kevenmcginn5406 Agree

because it was terrible?

@@Mr._Chievous Nah . . . those awards aren't based on merit. But don't worry about it. Go see JW4 and look forward to FF10 (if you get enough weekly allowance to do so).

Not true. Have you seen she wore a yellow ribbon? John Wayne always thought he should’ve been nominated for an Oscar for it.

Damming with faint praise

No, Sands of Iwo Jima was were you really see him start to shine, he does so much just with his eyes to convey emotion

@@gijoe508 It’s debatable. In truth, all told, he wasn’t the best of actors.👍

You need to watch Red River.

No. He was so good in this one he REALLY would have deserved T W O oscars for this ONE performance!

Mine too.

lol😆

@@Mr._Chievous so generous of you to show us what happens when the brain is deprived of oxygen for too long at birth

Great choice

The Searchers influenced Martin Scorsese;George Lucas and Steven Spielberg.

@@johnpatterson4816 Interesting

high noon better or red river

A couple of really good books about the life of John Ford are "Company of Heroes-Myi Life As An Actor in The John Ford Stock Company" by Harry Carey?Jr. Harry "Dobe"Carey Jr.-1921-2009- was the last living member of the John Ford Stock Company. In his book he talks about his lifelong friendships with John Ford and John Wayne as well as his WW2 service in the Navy among other things. "Pappy-The Life and Career of John Ford" by Dan Ford. Dan Ford talks about his famous grandfather and his life and career making such great films as The Searchers and Two Rode Together and his WW2 Navy service. If you can't find the. In a book store try getting it through internet library loan at your local library.

@@johnpatterson4816 Thanks for this. Did I mention John Fairbanks Jr. and his book about his war years? One of those Hollywood greats, a war hero and no ego. "A Hell Of A War" Took me some time to get around to reading it. Sat on my shelf for a couple of years. But really enjoyed it and went right through it when I finally started reading. Now I got to get around to his other book or books.

@@larrysingleton2864 I'm kinda both a history and trivia buff and quite a number of celebrities served in the war. Those who were well known at the time included Jimmy Stewart;Clark Gable;Tyrone Power;Mickey Rooney;William Holden and Gene Autry. Directors John Ford;John Huston;George Steven's and Darryl Zanuck. Athletes Ted Williams;Joe DiMaggio;Jackie Robinson;Joe Louis and Sugar Ray Robinson. Musicians Glenn Miller and Eddy Duchin. Future POTUS Eisenhower;Kennedy;Johnson;Nixon;Ford;Carter;Reagan and Bush.

@Diego Pisfil Shoulda won best picture.

12 Angry Man is another Cinematic Art.

On the waterfront : interesting.

Vertigo

Ahh all of those are masterpieces as well

If I had to pick some of the greatest movies from the 50's they'd be as follows:"The Searchers";"The High and The Mighty";"Winchester '73";"The Bridges at Toko Ri";"On The Beach";"Bridge Over the River Kwai";"Anatomy of a Murder";"The FBI Story";"Thunder Road""The Enemy Below";"Godzilla";"High Noon";"An Affair to Remember";"Peyton Place";"Mister Roberts";"High Noon";"Shane";"The Hanging Tree";"North by Northwest";"Ooeration Petticoat"and "Some Like it Hot",

buddy holly

2steelshells the good the bad and the ugly but I want to see this one badly

@@ethanwood9124 the good the bad the ugly is honestly not that good.

Dawson Djodvorj You must be on something

@@ethanwood9124 Its amazing indeed, but its more on the entertainment side than artistic side. Still amazing though, but i'd prefer others like the searchers, once upon a time in the west unforgiven etc.

Dawson Djodvorj once upon a time in the west and unforgiven are up there with the good the bad and the ugly, I haven’t seen the searchers yet but it looks really good I hope to see it soon.

Yes!!! But in TRUE GRIT he was wonderful....I’m just glad he did get a Oscar for he still is the #1 box office star ⭐️ in the world

The liberals in Hollywood were mad at him during that time because he was in one of those right wing Hollywood groups that was fighting the left wing Hollywood liberals, and they controlled the academy at the time sooooo....

A few you left out-Hank Worden:Moses Harper.Young Debbie:Lana Wood.Charlie McCrory:Ken Curtis.Brad Jorgenson:Harry Carey,Jr. Uh who was Uncleumbag?

@@johnpatterson4816 Clearly you've never played Red Dead Redemption 2.

Nope.Not a gamer.

hahahahha

Maybe the best Western! ;)

The Searchers was a great western

Lonesome Dove?

Western film ever

dumb

Great western film

zarthbacon the art of the trailer hadn’t been mastered back then lol

glad i read this comment before watching this trailer lol. wont read or watch anymore about it just go in blind

@@skadooshly It still hasn't been mastered...

Yes.When Ethan Edward's and Martin Pauley come upon a burned out Comanche camp they hear the sound of a cavalry patrol herding the survivors to the fort so they follow them They talk to some of the troopers who take them to where two girls are at. They soon resize that neither of them are Debbie or Lucy so they head out on their quest again.

@@johnpatterson4816the two girls appear at the fort in winter. The commanding officer takes Ethan and Pawley to see the both of them, thinking one might be Ethans niece. They are not, but they obviously have been driven mad during their captivity with the Indians. When Ethan turns and walks away, both girls start fussing over a straw doll. Ethan turns around to look at them. The camera quickly pans in on Ethan’s face and you can tell that if there were no witnesses there he would have killed both of them on the spot. The hate coming from Ethan is real and stark it’s come right thru the screen. It is my favorite scene of all time. It show’s the genius of John Ford. Not a word spoken by Wayne in that moment. The camera shows half his face. The other half is dark, almost hidden, showing pure evil. That my friend is “pure” genius By JohnFord.

Yeah, up until The Joker....There's gonna be an entire generation, if not generations, who only know films connected to existing comic book franchises - sad.

@@Grandmastergav86 Nonsense

Yes, The Searchers without John Wayne, brilliant idea! 😂🤡

Sean Fitzpatrick Like the night of the hunter.

Uhhh..noooo....no one could play this role as well as Wayne...

@TheNabOwnzz I'm still male enough for your mom

@@SplinterAce Too male for you?

@@DirkDiggler12 I'm still male enough for your mom

Understandable, quite for me

@UCSH5tLKNCwXNip2FQbqPvkg Stupid comment ever

Henry Fonda westerns were great Once upon a time in the west and My darling clementine

@@hl6087 'Once upon a time in the west' is by far the best western ever made. And Henry Fonda in 'my darling clementine' gives one of the best performances of all time. The film is not my favourite, but Fonda is mesmerising, a complete enigma, you never know what's going on. Is he afraid or not at all, is he feeling pity, is he angry or is he laughing inside? Could be anything. Unbelievably good. There's a kind of democratic spirit in such suggestive acting, like he believes in his audience and hands it over for them to make up their own minds, instead of force-feeding us like ducks.

@@deplaneetegmontI love Fort Apache with him and John Wayne very excellent movie

What’s your idea of a good movie?

@@matthewnikitas8905 the man who shot liberty valance is a great western. 3:10 to yuma with crowe and bale is another

@@Mr._Chievous Liberty Valance is a great movie, never heard of the other one
