In John Ford's sombre exploration mythologising of American heroes, he slowly reveals the character of Owen Thursday, who sees his new posting to the desolate Fort Apache as a chance to claim the military honour which he believes is rightfully his. Arrogant, obsessed with military form and ultimately self-destructive, Thursday attempts to destroy the Apache chief Cochise after luring him across the border from Mexico, against the advice of his subordinates.

Sólida e interesante película, parodia de sí misma. En cierto modo, una crítica de lo que representaba la Caballeria de los EEUU, de sus dudosos y discutibles métodos. Excelentes actuaciones de los actores secundarios, esos maravillosos paseos por Monument Valley, con la incomparable personalidad de John Ford detrás de la cámara. Un auténtico placer, ver juntos a John Wayne y Henry Fonda.
