3 Godfathers Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Wayne as the Prodigal Son delivering the Christ child seemed a bit of a stretch.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
There are humor and honest tear-jerking in this visually beautiful film.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Reworking of the 3 wise men story out west is very good Ford.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Gorgeously photographed Ford version of the often filmed story.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
John Ford, who had shot this popular tale as a silent, remade it with John Wayne, emphasizing even more the religious symbolism.
Photoplay
Elsa Branden
The standout scene is a desert sandstorm so real you can almost feel the hot sand cutting your face.
HollywoodChicago.com
Patrick McDonald
Two Western film icons at their peak ... director John Ford and John Wayne ... deliver both a cowpoke picture and a metaphoric Christmas story in classic MGM studio fashion. Glorious on-location Technicolor and the Duke at his Duke-est. Pat&Ken Holiday!
