The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (John Ford, 1962), 1.55am, Sky Cinema Greats
“When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.” So says a newspaperman in John Ford’s 1962 western, which teams up two of the big beasts of the genre – James Stewart and John Wayne – for a yarn in which the march of civilisation is scrappy and less than honourable. Stewart’s tyro lawyer arrives in the town of Shinbone with a vision of bringing democracy to the wild west, but Lee Marvin’s robber Liberty has other plans, while Wayne’s cowboy is caught between the rule of law and the survival of the fittest. A classic of its kind. Simon Wardell
