Wagon Master
John Ford's lusty successor to "Fort Apache" and "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon"
Wagon Master meets *Stagecoach* without the cavalry. A pair of horse traders herd Mormon wagons across desert and danger. The Clegg gang lurks, the Navajo share coffee, and the real frontier is moral. John Wayne’s laconic presence carries the era home.
