3. What movie is this?
It is a western/war movie released in 1949. It was the second of John Ford’s cavalry
trilogy and the only one in color. The
other two were “Fort Apache” and “Rio Grande”.
All three starred John Wayne. The
movie was set in Monument Valley. Ford
used the paintings of Frederick Remington for inspiration and ideas. The title is a song associated with the U.S.
Cavalry and alludes to the cavalryman giving his love a yellow ribbon. One of the stars is the horse “Steel” ridden
by Ben Johnson. This horse was popular
with western stars. The movie was
awarded the Oscar for Best Color Cinematography to Winton Hoch. The film was a big hit.
