About this movie

"I'm paid to risk my neck. I'll decide where and when I'll do it. This isn't it." Now a two-disc presentation with all-new special features, this Paramount Centennial Collection edition of El Dorado delivers the goods. Legendary producer-director Howard Hawks teams up with two legendary stars, John Wayne and Robert Mitchum, in a classic Western drama. Mitchum plays to perfection an alcoholic but gutsy sheriff who relentlessly battles the "dark side" of the Wild West -- ruthless cattle barons and crooked "businessmen." The Duke gives an equally adept performance as the sheriff's old friend, one who knows his way around a gunfight. Featuring a supporting cast that includes James Caan, Charlene Holt, Paul Fix, Ed Asner and Christopher George, and filled with both brawling action and unexpected humor, El Dorado is pure gold.

It combines classic western elements with humor. Family values vs greed, good guys vs bad as only Wayne can pull off.

One of my (and my family's) all time favorites. My family's tastes are as eclectic as any household. From THE PURGE and THE RING, Aliens and Predators, Princess Diaries and Smurfs, Marvel and DC, to NCIS and Criminal Minds. And we all love and laugh to this one.

Up until recently I started to watch John Wayne films (mind you I'm only 29) and I can honestly say I'm hooked his presence on the screen just screams G.O.A.T great film this was and I will forever be a fan
