Rio Bravo (1959) is a classic Western directed by Howard Hawks, starring John Wayne as Sheriff John T. Chance. The story takes place in a small Texas town, where Chance arrests a powerful rancher’s brother for murder and must hold him in jail until the U.S. Marshal arrives.

Faced with the rancher’s men trying to free the prisoner, Chance enlists the help of an unlikely team: a drunkard named Dude (Dean Martin), a young gunslinger called Colorado (Ricky Nelson), and an aging but loyal deputy, Stumpy (Walter Brennan).

As tensions escalate, the group must work together to defend the town and uphold justice against overwhelming odds. The film blends action, drama, and moments of humor, with standout performances from its ensemble cast.

Rio Bravo is celebrated as one of the greatest Westerns ever made, praised for its strong characters, gripping storyline, and timeless appeal.
