The Searchers
Texas 1868
Ethan Edwards returns to his brothers farm three years after the end of the civil war.
While Ethan and his adoptive nephew Martin Pawley join a company of Texas Rangers to track a Commanche raiding party, the renegades double back to attack and burn the Edwards homestead, kidnapping nine year old Debbie.
Then begins a five year odyssey. Ethan(John Wayne) and Martin (Jeffrey Hunter) journey from South to North from season to season hunting the band that abducted the young girl. And all the long while Ethans obsessive hatred and lust for revenge grows ever more intense.
