The John Wayne season continues with this John Ford western, also starring Henry Fonda and Shirley Temple. Lieutenant Colonel Thursday, is posted as commanding officer to Fort Apache, a remote outpost in the desert. He tightens up discipline and eventually shows his ignorance of North American Indian behaviour, which leads his troops into a deadly confrontation. Review page 54.
