Episode Description from the Publisher

On the latest entry of The Searchers, Ben is joined by returning guest Mitch Capps to cover not a Western but a "Western-adjacent" film. This time we're going back to a favorite director of the show, John Ford, with his early talkie The Lost Patrol starring Victor McLaglen and Boris Karloff. Listen as we compare this to the rest of Ford's filmography, discuss McLaglen's career, evaluate religious symbolism in Boris Karloff's performance, and maybe a very random DCU tangent. Is this John Ford movie a hidden oasis out on the trail? Listen and find out. Thanks for listening, y'all! Please rate us a 5/5, and review us on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to us.
