"Never apologize. It's a sign of weakness."

We know we're quite a ways into 2025, but Happy New Year everyone. Anders & Adam Holmes are back with a new trilogies episode! On this episode, the Holmes Brothers hop on their horses and ride out west to Monument Valley. They again discuss and analyse three favourite westerns from their childhood, two of which they saw a lot on VHS (remember those?). The movie trilogy they are looking at on this episode is: John Ford's The Cavalry Trilogy. It includes Fort Apache (1948), She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949) and Rio Grande (1950).

All three films star John Wayne and feature regular members of Ford's acting troupe like Henry Fonda, John Agar, Harry Carey Jr, Ben Johnson, George O'Brien and Victor McLaglen. John Ford was very much in his mythical period when making these westerns.

We hope you like this episode and do check out the films, if you have or haven't seen it.

Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen in the western The Outlaws which is a available to watch in the US, Finland & the UK on Amazon and Apple TV for example. You can read a review about the film on Collider.
