This classic Western stars John Wayne, Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson. Sheriff John T. Chance is the sole lawman in the dusty town of Rio Bravo, not that he doesn’t have deputies. Dude, a former sharpshooter, is now the town drunk, and Stumpy, a crotchety old man, is relegated to guard duty thanks to his bum leg. When Chance arrests Joe Burdette for murder, Burdette’s brother, a powerful rancher with a staff of paid henchmen at his disposal, vows vengeance. Throw into the mix a stunning, mysterious woman who happens to be a card shark, and an eager young gunslinger, and you’ve got all the makings for an action-packed Western—with a little romance.
