The Sons of Katie Elder is an old John Wayne, who is always
good. There is a scene where John Wayne is shooting his two six
shooters much like Rooster Cogburn in True Grit. I guess this was a
rehearsal. This movie is about three sons who return home after their mother has passed away; a bit too late for her. It talks about how, in their business and travels, they have neglected her. It goes from there to the sons deciding to figure out who killed their father, and how their mother was swindled of her property. This movie is much like "The Mailbox."

It reminds one of the importance of family, and not
forgetting those who are older, even when we are moved out and doing our
own thing. This movie has a cute bit with Dean Martin raffling off his glass eye, and then buying it back.
