Rio Lobo

“Give 'Em Hell, John.”

Col. Cord McNally (John Wayne) is a Union officer who has spent the war guarding gold shipments, and he comes out of it a man with a score to settle. Two traitors were responsible for the death of a friend, and he sets out to find them with Capt. Pierre Cordona (Jorge Rivero) and Sgt. Tuscarora Phillips (Christopher Mitchum). Howard Hawks, in his last film as director, shoots the dusty Mexican and Arizona country in plain, unhurried frames.
