Product Information
THE HORSE SOLDIERS, John Ford's only attempt at tackling the subject of the Civil War, is based on Grierson's Raid, part of the Union's assault on Vicksburg in April 1863. After a number of failed efforts at taking the Southern stronghold, Union leaders assign Col. John Marlowe (John Wayne), a railroad designer in civilian life, to lead a cavalry detachment to destroy a vital railroad hub at Newton Station, far behind Confederate lines. Marlowe's unit includes Major Kendall (William Holden), a cynical physician disgusted by the notion that there's glory in the carnage, and the politically ambitious Colonel Secord (Willis Bouchey). Marlowe temporarily appropriates the plantation of Southerner Hannah Hunter (Constance Towers) while in transit and is forced to take her along, in lieu of killing her, after she overhears his plans for Newton Station. As their journey continues, Marlowe realizes that he is much more interested in Hannah than in her political sympathies. Wayne and Holden give gritty, soulful performances, and William Clothier's photography is outstanding in a film that delves beneath simplistic notions of heroism to reveal something more complicated, grisly, and real.Product Identifiers

An old, but good, John Wayne movie.
It's an old movie that I saw long ago and recently on a TV channel called, " GRIT" that has old John Wayne westerns. I usually don't like war movies, but this one has a good story. It's during the civil war. At the end there's a bit of a love story. An unlikely match between a Union Officer and a southern lady. I enjoyed it very much.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

John Wayne at his best
John Wayne fan from way back, this is one of my favorites. John Wayne represents the common man soldier who struggled up through life to the rank of colonel in the cavalry—known for getting the job done with grit and determination. Enter William Holden’s doctor and foil. John Wayne didn’t want a doctor along and chafed at every medical decision. Their dynamic makes the story even more interesting. See if you agree that the romance at the end seemed a funny....but I guess if there is a woman around there has to be a romantic twist. Great flick.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
