Product Overview
A welcome highlight of the 1997 Sydney Film Festival was the Howard Hawks retrospective. Consisting of eleven significant films from the Hawks oeuvre – spanning from the silent era with A Girl in Every Port (1928) to the late 1950s with the Western classic Rio Bravo (1959) – this retrospective, with a share of the director's well-known action–drama films and westerns as well as the crazy comedies, proved to be an informative introduction to Hawks' artistry.
