Lovely music, superb scenery, some fun, fights and frolic
I'm here for the music -- well almost. I just love the opening theme and hum it often, not sure if it's traditional but it sort of sticks in your mind long after. While other commentators have already dissected the plot and the people in it, I'm just enjoying the wonderful scenic views of the locale, the pleasant unfolding of the story, the quiet, touching moments of simple sentiment that keeps us all human, and of course everybody loves a happy ending. I enjoy this one a great deal each time I see it. John Wayne looks good in shorts too! Lee Marvin is his old ornery self, and Dorothy Lamour is an amber glow of beauty, giving a nice extra interest to the movie. Cesar Romero adds his distinguished touch of class too. Altogether they create a fine blend of ingredients that makes for thoughtful and enjoyable entertainment. Add this one to your list of viewing experiences.score 10/10
