Stagecoach

When I came downstairs this morning The Husband was watching Stagecoach, so I watched it with him. We've both seen it several times, but a good movie deserves revisiting. This is a 1939 western directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne back when he didn't get top billing, Andy Devine, John Carradine, Thomas Mitchell in an Academy Award winning supporting role and Claire Trevor as Wayne's love interest.
