The Big Picture Fort Apache is a 1948 Western made by John Ford starring John Wayne and Henry Fonda. The film is the first of a trilogy by Ford dealing with the US Cavalry in the West after the Civil War. Ford produced Fort Apache with Merian C. Cooper under the banner Argosy Pictures for RKO Radio Pictures Studio. It is considered to be one of the first movies to present “a pro-Indian” view of Native Americans.
Release Date March 27, 1948 Director John Ford Cast John Wayne , Henry Fonda , Shirley Temple , John Agar , Ward Bond , Irene Rich , Anna Lee , George O'Brien Runtime 125 Minutes Main Genre Western Writers Frank S. Nugent Budget $2.
The film also displays another conflict: the conflict between mindless duty and decency, between the spirit and the letter of the law. York believes in mutual respect for the Indians and understands that Cochise broke the treaty and left the reservation out of frustration over mistreatment by the government's representative. He gives Cochise his word that there will be peace if he returns.
