If you loved El Dorado, try Rio Bravo

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Howard Hawks, and they sit in Western territory. If that's the register that drew you to El Dorado, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Rio Bravo is

Texas border town, scorching summer, a jailhouse door. A sheriff stands firm, a ragtag group assembles, loyalty is tested. Hawks perfects his brand of laconic heroism.
