This film was proposed by our member Jonathan Destrée who writes: 'A classic black & white western with an amazing cast, which turned 60 in 2022. I would love for members to get a chance to see it on the big screen, and for some of us, including me, for the first time ever!'
Questions arise when Senator Stoddard (James Stewart) attends the funeral of a local man named Tom Doniphon (John Wayne) in a small Western town. Flashing back, we learn Doniphon saved Stoddard, then a lawyer, when he was roughed up by a crew of outlaws terrorizing the town, led by Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin). As the territory's safety hung in the balance, Doniphon and Stoddard, two of the only people standing up to him, proved to be very important, but different, foes to Valance.
