Howard Hawks and John Wayne made an excellent picture in "Rio Bravo". Though I have now seen it at least 3 times, it still takes me back to the wild west. What a supporting cast with Dean Martin, who didn't do all that many movie roles. Walter Brennan was wonderful in all his films, but especially in "Rio Bravo". Claude Akin looked and acted like the meanest cowboy ever to take the screen. Even Ricky Nelson, yes even he comes through with an excellent performance. We all know Ricky was no feature film star either. Give the credit to director Howard Hawks for bringing out the best of the entire cast. "Rio Bravo" gave John Wayne a great script and Wayne showed he was equal to the task. I put "Rio Bravo" as one of my favorite all time classic western movies.
