I have been addicted to this movie for such a long time. As far as Westerns go it is one of the classics.
You know even after 81 years it still packs a punch and has aged very well. Definitely a great Western film.
Possibly left unsaid is the magnificent cinematography in this movie. The panoramas of Monument Valley and the incredible sky with the clouds squeeze every day last bit of drama out of the black and white film. Absolutely breathtaking!
Cinematography is spectacular, although maybe they shouldn't have kept repeatedly riding in circles around Monument Valley.
It has not been unsaid. Lots of people have mentioned it, including you.
The cast is superb but Thomas Mitchell (one of the greatest character actors ever) easily steals the show in a hilarious and moving performance! You can see why he won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for this!
1939 was a big year for him. Look at all the classics he was in that year with "Stagecoach": "Gone with the Wind", "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"... he was such a great actor.
One of the best movies of all time. Period.
John Carradine and Thomas Mitchell topped this cast of actors in this unforgettable movie. Another gem from 1939.
81 years after it was made, and it still warrants respect, and awe for its cast and director. They don't make them like this any more too bad.
How did they make the scenes of John Wayne jumping on horses and apaches falling off?
That is so true amen jtp
Thank you jtp
Ford won 6 academy awards for direction. Unsurpassed.
@@adversitycartoons4050 It was the unsung stunt double.
I watched both versions in color and black and white and loved both of them just tonight big John Wayne fan thank you
The film that turned John Wayne into JOHN WAYNE.
A masterpiece. All the cast were outstanding.
@Mister Jorrox this is not true...maybe not a great actor or person...but john wayne was a movie star who did make some fine films....the quiet man..the searchers..3 godfathers....for example...and he certainly was a much better actor than most in his westerns
@@jadezee6316 his children loved him, that's the most important part.
@@jadezee6316 He was a good actor and a great man.
You can pinpoint the moment that happened to his first appearance on screen in this film. That focus pull is astounding.
@@theiceman6941 He was a better man than you'll ever be.
A wonderful piece of film making that still holds up today. I never get tired of this movie. It is a great mix of story, characters and scenery. The later remake has nothing on this. A masterpiece.
Beautiful theme music, in addition to the participation of John Ford and John Wayne who made this film uniquely invaluable! Bless your souls you great ones!
Beginning of John Wayne n John Ford collaboration.Great western movie to watch even today.Still looks fresh.One of the finest western movie directed by Ford followed by My Darling Clementine,The Searchers n Man Who Shot Liberty Vallance.
I loved watching John Carradine as the ‘southern gambler.’ His accent was totally convincing. Yes, he played a rogue but a ‘gentleman’ rogue. He had a long film career, featuring in many excellent movies over the years. Carradine was a wonderful character actor.
John Carridine was one of the finest character actors in supporting roles in over 300 films.
What an actor. Very handsome in his younger days. The whole Carradine clan was magic.
One of the best westerns ever made. Love the story, characters, and the ending is pure gold.
Yep. 80 years later, it stands the test of time.
I can second that
Amen brother amen

I just love this movie. Everything is natural and eventful. I used to watch John Wayne,s movies back home , he introduced America to the other countries. My respect for him is endless.
A classic Western. One of John Wayne's finest films...and he made a lot of great movies to choose from.📽🎬😎❤
I'm still partial to "The Quiet Man", but luved Wayne in this one. How bout all the other great actors, too?
Never heard of him
I can’t stop watching the honest interplay between the real life personalities on the stagecoach has never been equaled even in a psychological analysis!
Al Meggs Now go see 1984s the Breakfast club one of the greatest films of the 80s. You might see the same thing!.
That's why I liked this better than so many other Westerns - the character studies, people under stress eventually getting along.
1939 was such a great year for films.
The Wizard of Oz, 1939
I couldn't love this movie more. The best of its kind.
This timeless classic Western has a profound romantic element as well.

@@Justin.Martyr
If you don't know than I cannot possibly explain it to you
@Land Lubber what do you expect from the apache!
That's how I feel too. Life is a stagecoach.
Let’s it forget the daring and inimitable Yakima Canutt who stunt doubled for John Wayne and others in this film. That scene under the stage coach is unbelievable!
Its "Lets not forget".
Yakama Canutt went on to choreograph many great stunts including the chariot race in Ben Hur!
True. It's hard to dispute that he's is one of the things that makes this film so great. John Wayne later said his on screen character was deeply inspired by Canutt's mannerisms.
My late husband and I watched John Wayne movies together. I feel close to him watching this excellent movie again.
Claire Trevor was such a magníficent actress. She deserved so much more recognition.
Want to know why a John Ford western was so great? Watch this one and it will tell you everything. Plot rides along with the same pace as a striding horse. Plenty of action but with a good storyline. Great back drops, but the best thing of all are the characters. Every one different, someone that we can each relate to in some way. These characters are not shallow or plastic. None look theyve just preened themselves after leaving their cars in the Hollywood parking lot. These are REAL men and women. A master class in how to develop characters. A typical John Ford trait.
This western movie is the example that led onto influence a lot of the best pictures to come ahead of its days. Simply the greatest!
Thomas Mitchell ‘steals’ the film with his superb characterisation of the ‘bibulous’ doctor. Indeed, in my opinion, Mitchell was dominant in the scenes within the stage coach, the saloon scene, as well as the finale! The twinkle in his eye, his roguish smile, his charm and his courage when warning off Luke Plummer from a gunfight. Doc Boone became an unlikely, roguish hero in the eyes of the audience.
He really did have the most important role. Priceless.
I came here to comment the exact same thing you so perfectly stated here already. I mean Doc Boone is out here buck wild drunk as a skunk trying to outrun an Apache attack. Along the way he manages to deliver a baby and save the life of his new best friend after he gets hit with an arrow. Doc Boone was a straight up G!
Agreed, but “bucolic” doctor?
@@fifthbusiness1678 My mistake. Thanks for correcting me. The word I was looking for was ‘bibulous.’
And in the end, it earned him the Oscar for best supporting actor.
I've got my little grandsons watching these old classics and they love them as much as I do
Good on Ya! They don't make movies like this anymore. Let the little guys see Sergeant Rutledge as well.
Thanks for sharing your good idea. I’ll follow your example.

*WHO SHOT the GambLer????? & WAS HE Going to MURDER the GIRL????*
good raisin'
One of the all time classic westerns directed by the brilliant John Ford. Great acting performances from John Wayne, Thomas Mitchell as the drunken doctor and John Carradine as the southern gambler. I also much enjoyed the performance of Andy Devine as ‘Buck.’ This film stands the test of time!
You didn’t mention Claire Trevor always a pleasure to see, great actress.
Andy Devine was good in"" The man that shot Liberty Vallence" he sure loved a good steak!!
all the actors were superb here...none of them big stars when this movie was made BTW
Andy Devine spoke in a very nervous fashion, like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo!
John Wayne with John Carradine here in 1939 then John Wayne with Robert Carradine in 1972 - The Cowboys - the bookends of Waynes best acting.
15 minutes in & already watched more real acting then in the last 5 new movies I’ve seen!!
+wwddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddq+
Great movie, lots of action, decent language, romance, repentance, redemption, sacrifice. Many thanks for posting! 👍👍👏
GenKat Qltr To many in Hollywood lack respect for their audiences intelligence and maturity!
This flick is grand. It's my favorite movie of all time. Used to be on TV, often enough, and if scenes haven't been cut out - because drama unfolds to fury with an happy ending, viewers will see one of the best movies ever made!!
Thanks for a great upload!!!
I saw the movie here in Senegal for the first time in 1978. A year before John Wayne passed away. A classic and my best western movie actor
Every character played was outstanding. Even the bar keep.
Seen many times and never get tired of seeing it again.
This film was a masterpiece. Showing the greatest attention to detail. In the proper lighting. To illuminate faces properly. Without shadowing. Or glowing from over lighting. Black and White film were 100 times more difficult to light properly and effectively. John Pappy Ford understood all these facts.!!!!!
Great lighting and cinematography. Both required a lok of skill and work when filming in black and white. Casablanca is another fine film with great lighting and cinematography.
I'm in my late sixties and that's the best western movie I've seen...never had a chance to see it before although I knew of it...John Wayne, the cast, the storyline all excellent. And superb stunt riding by Yak Canutt. The movie was made eighty years ago...but it has aged exceedingly well...
Yes, I agree. This is an excellent movie for so many reasons; the actors, the scenery, direction; it's perfect.
24 and loving this film
Music, Cast, Direction, Dialogues everything is just so perfect and with John Wayne it adds more sugar in it. One of the most brilliant movie even in B/W it gives a run to color one 👍🏾👌
In fact B/W makes the movie more effective.
I love the Duke John Wayne👍... I was so inspired when I heard the bugle playing and the troops riding in to the stagecoach's rescue , makes me feel so proud , I know the feeling I was in the Marine Corp. in Afghanistan, and did a full two tours (8 years) for my country that I love so much 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for your service, Rafael 🇺🇸
I also thank you for your service.
this movie is a work of art,i tell ya,it is immortal,they'll be watching this 100 years from now,t o depict real movies and the old west,thank you for the upload of American icon actors
@@phil6506 there are millions of copies of it,like the bible,they have tried to silence the words and meanings of it for 2000 years,it will survive,the reason? because what other man born of woman would die for the whole earth and the sins of man,NO ONE
That's only 14years from now.
If you ever wanted to know what inspired directors like Sergio Leone and Akira Kurosawa, you're looking at it!
With its magnifi-glorious cinematography and vistas of Monument National, to die for. And the acting is top notch. A true American masterpiece!
Totally magnificent. Like reading a well written story. Watched numerous times and always discovered something new. Thanks.
Superbly done, thanks to John Ford.
No cheap ass remake can touch the original. This is gold.
Can't disagree with
Fun movie to watch I had not seen Andy Divine since the 1950s, and this was John Wayne's first big hit. The movie Quality is excellent for being about 70 years old, good to see some of the older actors, brings back memories.
THIS is the greatest western movie ever made...by the genius...john ford...who made john wayne a star..in this movie
1939 the best year for movies ever! You had Stagecoach and Mr. Smith Goes To Washington and Gone With The Wind and The Wizard Of Oz to name a few!
Hollywood damn sure can't do that now!!!
Allegheny Uprising with John Wayne is my favorite 1939 movie.
One of my favorite movies and a high quality copy too
The Duke was always the best and a great American
We sure could use him today pilgrim
Rest In Peace Amigo

Been watching this movie since I came to the U.S. in 1958, age 12. It was great then and great now. I love seeing what this country looked like in the wild west.
Where did you live before 12?
@@kennarajora6532 I was born in Durness, Scotland. My parents were killed in Ireland fighting with the Irish for their freedom. The British started looking for me and anyone else associated with my parents. It was 1957. I was just shy of 12. I learned about "guilt by association". Not for anything I did, but for who I was. I had never been away from Durness, never even saw a gun or knew anyone who was "active". Friends saw to it I was put on a ship and sent to America to live with people who knew my family. I grew up in the U.S. I served in the USMC. I served over two and a half years in Vietnam until I was seriously wounded and sent home for discharge. My wife carol and I have been married for 58 years. I know nothing of Durness. Don't know about family or friends that might still exist. I am an American.
@@glenmcgregor3366 That's quite a full life you've led. It's really sad to hear what happened to your parents, but it's good to see that everything worked out well in the end. My grandpa also fought in Vietnam, but he passed away in 2018 from cancer. He used to love westerns, he's the one who introduced me to Stagecoach.
Thank you So Much For This.
One of John Waynes Best B&W MOVIES.. This And ...
" ANGEL AND THE BAD MAN "
One of Ford's masterpieces, damn!!
Outstanding cast of characters
*WHO SHOT the GambLer????? & WAS HE Going to MURDER the GIRL????*
That movie was the best of all of them, you jusf can't beat the first one.!!!!
@@Justin.Martyr the gambler was killed by a bullet from an attacking Apache. The gambler was going to use his last bullet to kill the cavalry officer's wife to prevent her from being captured by the Apaches.
He felt a quick death for her was more merciful than being raped and tortured and eventually murdered.
@@Justin.Martyr It's difficult to understand the scene without reading the original novel of this movie. In fact, the gambler was once a Major of the Confederate Army and was from the well-known Greenfield family. He fought as a subordinate of Lucy's father, the head of the Mallory family, also a well-known family, and became a gambler at the same time as the defeat of the Confederate States of America. He had heard from Lucy's father that he had a daughter during the Civil War. But Lucy didn't know him. Over time, he discovers that the woman passing by in front of the cafe is Lucy, the daughter of a former superior, and asks her sheriff to ride her stagecoach to protect her. The film doesn't tell these facts, making the scene difficult to understand.

One of my all time favorite movies.
Hello there,
How are you doing ?
This was the first John Wayne movie I saw,after that I followed his career till he passed away,some odd forty years later.He played everything and every body and did it well.
One of my favorite movies is "The Quiet Man". I read that it was John Wayne's favorite of all his movies.
@@ginnylorenz5265 That fight scene is a classic...

A fine example of how to make a great movie on a low budget.
All film makers would do well to study this movie.
Saw this on TV best part of 60 years ago and a good few times since Great film
"You don't know me, you don't know who I am." "I know all I want to know." One of the great lines of all time.
If I had 5 thumbs...great storyline, simple and exciting. Excellent acting, Claire was such a beauty
Yes I find I'm looking for anything with claire trevor in it. In Key largo shes wonderful
Yes. As the Indian fight wasn't enough, we had that great ending.
As a western-one of the finest-ever! Craig
It’s good to see a real movie once in a while. Thank you!
You can always tell a John Ford Western right from the opening scenes.
So true- it always looks to me like the sky is a character in a John Ford picture.
The speech from the crooked banker at around 35 minutes could be describing today 2020. First time i ever cheered for the cavalry.
This movie brought out the best in every actor involved because of the director.Everything this director ever made is TOP NOTCH.The man that did the screenplay was also no slouch!!The script was absolutely BRILLIANT!!
Thank you for sharing this priceless Western!
Linda, go to www.imdb.com and you will see that this movie cost $392,000. So you can see that priceless is wrong.
Hello Linda !
Was swiftly going through the comment , couldn’t help but notice your picture

Un westerm clásico..como nunca habrá con la leyenda John Wayne..gran actor DEP ⚘
Ford always photographed landscapes so amazingly
A fantastic western ! Wow !..... Monument Valley .... John Ford loved this location. This is the one that launched John Wayne's career. Thank you so much for this great post Western Films !
I think Claire Trevor was just adorable in this film. She was 29 at this time. And did anyone else notice she got top billing? This is a Claire Trevor movie, with John Wayne in it.
Hard to believe that up until this movie Wayne was still basically a nobody.
Duke should have won an Oscar for his role in red river. Don't make them like they used to.what a pleasure to see these classics again.
I have watched thos movie all my life at different stages....it and the The Quite Man.
Both great movies that never seem to get old. They both have a very talented cast.
the theme music when the Stagecoach is rattling along is fantastic
Timeless masterpiece.
Why the hell do they do remakes of classics, there's never been a remake better than the original.

My favorite scene happens at 1:12:45. The Apache reloading his single shot rifle at full gallup.
I like the charge at the end. The bugler is blowing charge at a full out gallop
@@pamthompson596 The whole chase was great.
Watching a John Wayne western from 1935 called The Dawn Rider... comparing that film to this film is like comparing Stone Age Technology to the cellphone technology of today the change in sound, cinematography, and music soundtrack is that dramatic. The first movie I will not bother to watch all the way through, this movie is one of the great classics!
Saw a ranch house burnin' last night...
I watched 20 of his 1930s westerns in the past two weeks. Yeah, there is a quite noticeable difference in the production quality of those versus this one. I guess this is what you get when John Ford gets involved.
I have seen this film many times and still enjoy it like the first time. The first of the epic westerns!
I saw the only surviving copy at the Geffen Playhouse. It was amazing.
Just about the best quality print I've seen; and, thanks for not stepping on the end credits.
thank you for share great old movie

Dec 27, 2019 ~ 1939 was a great year for motion pictures. Stage Coach, The Wizard of OZ, Gone with the wind and may more. Thanks for a great trip back to yesteryear when you could still understand what people said with out the damn back up noisy music they play in today's movies with story lines designed for 12 year olds.
Add Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Only Angels Have Wings, Ninotchka and Love Affair.
@@willieluncheonette5843 how could I forget Mr Smith goes to Washington? My Civics Teacher in High school advised all us students watch it and I still do every time it comes on TCM. 1939 was a great year for movies and I would be born 5 years later :o)
Well said. Thanks.

Chuck Kady Hi. I am a big lover of the 1939 "Wizard of Oz" movie. Incredibly, when it was released, it wasn't all that popular. Over time, an increasing number of people liked the movie. The rest is history. 😃🌪🏚

He became a director. He was 2nd unit director on lots of westerns into the 70s.

Canutt was the 2nd unit director on "Ben-Hur". He and his crew planned the famed chariot race scene. Yak's son, Joe, doubled for Charlton Heston.

Thomas Mitchell who won an academy award for his performance in stagecoach
Brilliantly done by John Ford! The cast is stunning, John Wayne's bravura performance doesnt disappoint me either. Thanks very much for posting the film! 👍
Shame he didn't join up & fight WW2 rather than feathering his own nest whilst the likes of James Stewart, Henry Fonda, Clark Cable & many more did serve. Stewart flew over 20 missions in Germany. Wayne said he did apply but his letter must of got lost.. I think his all American hero & his Republican right was to compensate what he knew he had done. Stewart never bragged or sought any fame for his bravery & was friends with Wayne. Even the viewers just don't like too see Wayne a coward & fake hero & resist the view but it's fact. While the others spent 3yrs fighting, Wayne then really established himself building his films & was top dog when his fellow actor names returned. Clever & venal.

One of my favorite John Ford movies
Hello Suzanne, How are you doing?
Excellent directing by Ford and wonderful cast present a masterclass western milestone.
Wow and all the rest of it..good lighting..
That ride seems to be portrayed as far more smooth than it was in reality.
And notice there's no horse manure anywhere, nor human manure been being released ever. Hey, it's a movie, entertainment ...to a certain degree, not ....
Nos Tempos das Diligências é um excelente western, um divisor de águas. Antes os westerns eram filmes feitos para crianças, público pouco exigente. A partir de então os westerns passaram a ser respeitados pelos intelectuais!
So well done the music, the story, dialogue, cinematic shows, acting, excellent casting, all combinations pulling the heart strings of great Americans, yes the film will last, survive.....
They just don’t get any better than this!!
