About this product

Product Information

In John Ford's stark, melancholy swan song for the conventional frontier Western, aged Senator Ransom Stoddard (James Stewart) returns to the small town of Shinbone with his wife, Hallie (Vera Miles), for the funeral of his friend, Tom Doniphan (John Wayne), where he recounts for reporters his relationship with the man. His arrival in the town years earlier as a newly minted lawyer had been welcomed with a vicious beating by Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin), a flamboyant thug hired by powerful business interests fearful of the lawyer's intentions to stump for statehood. Doniphan, a rancher and feared gunman, finds Stoddard unconscious, takes him into town, and continues to protect him, particularly after coming to realize that the woman he loves cares more for the lawyer. Despite Doniphan's warnings that the only law in the region comes at the end of a gun barrel, the stubborn lawyer insists on teaching the illiterate townspeople about the rule of law in a democratic society. When Stoddard is elected as the regional delegate to the territorial convention, Valance baits the politician, a notoriously inept gunman, into a showdown. The film, which plays like a Western version of Freud's CIVILIZATION AND ITS DISCONTENTS, reflects the aging director's ambivalence about many of the beliefs that had animated his earlier work. Shot on two soundstages because of a limited budget and Ford's poor health, THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE blends a stripped-down look with an intentionally fractured, ambiguous narrative to stand as a haunting elegy for the fearless gunman, the endless wilderness, and the loss of freedom their vanishing betokens.

  • Getting there

    This is another great John Wayne film. It is good for the family as well as for the traditional western fans. This movie has a strong cast for it's day and is a great example of the early messege movies, good vs. evil, law vs. indavidual justice. While Jimmy Stewart brings home a strong performance as the new generation emerging into the old west, bringing book and education to combat law breakers and ignorance, the Duke still deals out justice the old western style, a .44 and a steady gaze. If you don't have this film I recommend that you get it. The older style western will take you back to when it was not a bad thing to believe that some times it is a hard caracter that keeps evil from over-running the land till enough time passes and what we call civilization comes along. It is ...

  • The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance

    This is an excellent old movie told in the third person by an aging politician about events leading up to the advent of statehood in the old West. The story is being told to reporters in 1910. He and his wife Hallie are in town for the funeral of an old friend, Tom Doniphen. Tom is just one of those old names that have faded into obscurity over the years. The story began more than twenty-five years before when a young greenhorn lawyer, Ransom Stoddard (Jimmy Stewart), arrived in the dusty little western town of Shinbone. A violent gunman, Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin) and his gang had the whole territory in its clutches. Ransom Stoddard tried to bring law and order to the area and ran afoul of Valance. A local cowboy Tom Doniphon (John Wayne)is in love with Hallie, but knows of her fondness ...

  • The Humble and the Face of Courage

    Loved this movie! Law-abiding Stewart is willing to face up to killer Lee Marvin (Liberty Valance) - but knowing he'll be killed, John Wayne secretly kills him, allowing both Stewart and the town to believe Stewart accomplished this. Excellent way to begin the story by bringing in the characters in the beginning for the funeral of their old friend (Wayne) - and within minutes the audience is transported back in time to the story that unfolds. The "legend" in the town is that Stewart (now old and a senator) once killed Liberty Valance - the meanest, ruthless man in town. Once the "real" story is revealed to the town's newspaper editor for the story he's certain he's just got to have, he makes a dynamic statement about leaving a legend "a legend" (leaving the senator's dignity intact and the ...
