I wish I was a apple hangin’ in a tree
And everytime my sweetheart passed
She’d take a bite off me
She told me that she loved me
She called me sugar plum
She threw her arms around me
I thought my time had come
  Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
I’ll marry you sometime


For all these reasons and many more, Rio Bravo is one of Hawks’ most sublime achievements: it’s more like an old friend than a film, a familiar place to visit and revisit over and over again, always enjoying the company and the ragged charm of its storytelling. — Ed Howard
