“Take 'em to Missouri, Matt.”

Released on this day in 1948, Red River cemented John Wayne’s status as a dramatic powerhouse, pairing him with director Howard Hawks in one of the greatest Westerns ever made. As Tom Dunson, Duke delivered a complex, commanding performance that showed the world he was more than just a cowboy—he was a true actor.

John Wayne’s Red River costume is currently on display at the John Wayne: An American Experience Museum in Fort Worth.
