John Wayne's very last film, an elegy for a dying cowboy, expresses the essence of his screen image, while borrowing elements from his own life.

Effective swan-song for Wayne.
September 11, 2001
A fitting and melancholy farewell to The Duke.

John Wayne's swan song is a touching tribute to the legendary star and the Western.
