This classic western directed by Howard Hawks features an all-star cast, including the legendary John Wayne. There's a showdown at Rio Bravo when courageous Sheriff John T. Chance (Wayne) throws the brother of evil cattle baron Nathan Burdette in jail for murder (the Burdette brothers played by John Russell and Claude Akins). When Burdette's men lay seige to his jailhouse, Chance holds on until the arrival of a U.S. Marshal with the help of his drunken deputy, Dude (Dean Martin), cranky old man Stumpy (Walter Brennan), a young gunfighter (Ricky Nelson) and the beautiful long-legged Feathers (Angie Dickinson).

Das lachen von "Stumpy", dem alten Hilfssheriff ist für mich "Kult". Rio Bravo ist meiner Meinung nach der unterhaltsamste "Wayne"-Western überhaupt. Das liegt nicht zuletzt an den grandiosen schauspielerischen Leistungen von Wayne, Dean Martin und auch Ricky Nelson spielt seinen Part ausgezeichnet. Auch der Humor kommt in diesem Film nicht zu kurz. Die Sprüche sind zum Teil vom Feinsten.
