I do not remember much about the novel but recall Ethan Edwards being called on the final raid against the Comanche.
Killed. Not called.
I remember Buddy Holly getting "That'll Be the Day" from the movie.
One of the movies that I've never warmed to. I've tried to watch it several times and I give up--it just doesn't hold my interest.
Thanks a lot, Bill; I just spent $9.99 on Newsweek's The Searchers 60th anniversary issue.JohnD
I hope they don't forget to pay my commission.
This is one of those rare cases where it's tough to decide which is better, the great movie or the great novel.
