The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)
RT Score: 95%
Age rating: PG-13
Length: 123 minutes
Director: John Ford
In The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Senator Ransom Stoddard (James Stewart), a man who has become famous for killing a notorious criminal, returns to his hometown for a funeral where he reveals who really shot outlaw Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin) to a local reporter (pieced together by flashbacks). The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance is one of the best westerns of Hollywood’s Golden Age and is widely considered Ford’s greatest work. Shrouded in tension, there’s a meaning behind the movie that isn't as black and white as the movie itself. It’s well worth a watch if you haven’t seen it already.
