https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sT7AS6MPk3IA masterpiece of mood and heroics, this second film in director John Ford's
renowned cavalry trilogy (Fort Apache and Rio Grande are the others) features

the advance of the patrol beneath ominous skies: She Wore a Yellow Ribbon,
an Academy Award? winner* for its color cinematography, paints a memorable
portrait of the honor, duty and courage in the finest tradition of the cavalry.
And of Ford filmmaking.
