Movie Haiku:Semi-historical epic recounts the first great cattle drive to Abilene which opened the Chisholm Trail. John Wayne is the loner, the hardened man who builds the herd. Montgomery Clift is his adopted son, who forges their men into the team that gets the job done. The greatest Western ever.
