She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949)

You got a breath on you like a hot mince pie.
Continuing a look at some of John Wayne's films on his 100th anniversary.
One of the best written westerns and an Oscar winner for cinematography, this John Ford western, sone 10 years after Stagecoach, shows a different side of Wayne.
It is the middle film in John Ford's (and actor John Wayne's) U.S. Cavalry trilogy, which includes Fort Apache (1948) & Rio Grande (1950. It is the best of the three as we see Wayne, just short of retirement, trying to mature a couple of Lieutenant's to take his place.
Comic relief is provided by Victor McLaglen, as Top Sergeant Quincannon, especially where he single-handedly whips eight men between drinks. His presence can certainly light up a movie.
