Director John Ford’s memorable look at duty, devotion, and honor stars John Wayne as Nathan Brittles, a Cavalry captain who, on the eve of retirement, strives to forestall war between Indians and the army. Brittles’ patrol is complicated by the presence of his commanding officer’s wife and her niece (Joanne Dru)--the "she" of the title bearing the yellow ribbon that signifies a loved one fighting in Nathan’s company. With Ben Johnson, Mildred Natwick, and John Agar; based on short stories by James Warner Bellah. 103 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono, French Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, French, Portuguese, Spanish; home movies; theatrical trailer.
