He points out that the &#8220;story bears some resemblance to <em>The Searchers<\/em>, in that Wayne plays a character with a shady past who exorcises his bad qualities while returning a child to civilization &#8212; only here Wayne is welcomed (in Welcome, Arizona) with open arms by the citizens because they realize <em>he<\/em> has reformed and can fit into their town.&#8221; I&#8217;m a little fonder than Peary of this quirky tale, which plays as though the Three Wise Men were on the lam in the Wild West trying to survive a dust storm. There&#8217;s a kind of surreal magic in the scenes of the men making their way across desolate landscapes, happening upon a dying widow (Natwick is a tad too old to be playing a first-time mother) who gives birth to a son and therefore to a new life and sense of meaning for the bandits. Their need to care for this helpless creature trumps all other considerations, leading to the unexpectedly happy ending. Beautiful on-location cinematography and typically fine direction by Ford make this a one-time must-see for film fanatics. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Strong direction by Ford<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still-1024x659.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"412\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-45488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still-1024x659.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still-128x82.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still-300x193.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still-768x494.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Still.png 1499w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still-1024x718.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"449\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-45481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still-1024x718.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still-128x90.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still-768x538.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/3-Godfathers-Still.png 1511w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Excellent on-location cinematography<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography-1024x674.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"421\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-45482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography-1024x674.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography-128x84.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography-300x197.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography-768x505.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Cinematography.png 1461w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Many memorable moments<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn-1024x689.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"431\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-45486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn-1024x689.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn-128x86.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn-768x516.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Three-Godfathers-Newborn.png 1453w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See?
