Page "My Darling Clementine" Paragraph 22

Film critic Bosley Crowther lauded the film and wrote, " The eminent director, John Ford, is a man who has a way with a Western like nobody in the picture trade.

Seven years ago his classic Stagecoach snuggled very close to fine art in this genre.

And now, by George, he's almost matched it with My Darling Clementine ... But even with standard Western fiction — and that's what the script has enjoined — Mr. Ford can evoke fine sensations and curiously-captivating moods.

From the moment that Wyatt and his brothers are discovered on the wide and dusty range, trailing a herd of cattle to a far-off promised land, a tone of pictorial authority is struck — and it is held.

Every scene, every shot is the product of a keen and sensitive eye — an eye which has deep comprehension of the beauty of rugged people and a rugged world ".
