Task 28: Chalk Up Another "Classic"...!

Been busy piecing together the Appearances list for the "To Be Continued" Glitterthorn profile, and boy has it been an intensive endeavour...

Meanwhile... Ye gods, Mission 101 progress!

28 - Watch one "classic" movie a month (4/33)

in this case - I managed to cram in Fort Apache (1948), this afternoon. Not quite the usual "hooray for the cavalry" business, as some of the injustices against the Native Americans do get addressed, only for the commanding officer to just forget it all and charge in to teach the "savages" a lesson whilst more savvy Captain John Wayne looks on in disbelief - only to heroically monologue at the end, and rather blunt the message. And was that really Shirley Temple...?

Short And Sweet: A brave attempt to right a few wrongs that doesn't quite manage it. 3/5

Maybe more later...
