March 18 1959 

Written by Jules Furthman and Leight BRackett, from a story by B.H.McCampbell, RIO BRAVO opens in NY. The essential Howard Hawks aesthetic encapsulated in a classic, archetypal John Wayne Western. Stoicism, loyalty, honor, redemption; when sorry "just don't get it done." Grandly entertaining. With Dean Martin, Walter Brennan & Ricky Nelson.
