The Bravados
A Powerful Western Tale of Revenge and Redemption
Directed by Henry King
Produced by 20th Century Fox
A dark Western meditation on vengeance that traces a man's moral descent as he pursues justice across the border, exploring how obsession with retribution corrupts the soul.
Jim Douglass arrives in the small town of Rio Arriba in order to witness the hanging of the four men he believes murdered his wife. When the convicts escape, Jim tracks them into Mexico, determined to see that justice is done. But the farther Jim goes in his quest for vengeance, the more merciless he becomes, losing himself in an unrelenting spiral of hatred and violence.
