" This is one of the finest movies ever made, that wasn't ever supposed to BE made. Herbert Yates demanded the making of this film (in B&W no less)in advance for green-lighting "The Quiet Man." The pairing of John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara was pure magic, and the Moab (NOT Monument Valley) locale was breath taking. The supporting cast was quite good, as well.

All of these elements added up to a special moment in movie history one could one get from John Ford as a director. His attention to detail, not only in the beautiful landscape shots, but in the capturing of mundane tasks of the lonely cavalry soldier on a lonely desert outpost.

Fort Apache was great, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon even better, but Rio Grande had a quality that surpassed them both. Wayne and O'Hara. The fact that they only managed 5 movies together is really sad. They had such a great chemistry on the screen. When you see the way they look into each other's eyes, you BELIEVE the love passing between them. You can see the Shennandoah Valley, and Bridesdale. When he comes back into his darkened tent to find her waiting and sweeps her into his arms and kisses her, then stops and says.."I'm sorry, Katherine.." you know that he is....for everything. You know they belong together. The entire movie is this way, BUT it doesn't get IN the way OF the movie. That's FORD for you. "
