October 22, 1949 - SHE WORE A YELLOW RIBBON was released.

Bosley Crowther reviewing the film for the NY Times commented:

"Mr. Ford has superbly achieved a vast and composite illustration of all the legends of the frontier cavalryman. . . And, best of all, he has got the brilliant color and vivid detail of those legendary troops as they ranged through the silent ‘Indian country’ and across the magnificent Western plains. . .

"His action is crisp and electric. His pictures bold and beautiful. No one could make a troop of soldiers riding across the Western plains look more exciting and romantic than this great director does. No one could get more emotion out of a thundering cavalry charge or an old soldier’s farewell departure from the ranks of his comrades than he. . .

"Mr. Wayne, his hair streaked with silver and wearing a dashing mustache, is the absolute image and ideal of a legendary cavalryman. A newcomer named Ben Johnson is likewise vivid as a trooper from the South. . . Bulwarked with gay and spirited music and keyed to the colors of the plains, ‘She Wore a Yellow Ribbon’ is a dilly of a cavalry picture. Yeehooooo!"

Never equaled, never topped.
