The Big Picture When you think of a John Wayne and Dean Martin on-screen meet-up, most likely it's Howard Hawks' 1959 Western Rio Bravo that pops into your head. In the film, it was John Wayne's character, Sheriff John T. Chance, who rehabilitated Dude.
With grief, anger, and a deep sense of duty driving them, Wayne's John and Martin's Tom lead their brothers in seeking revenge. The quest to avenge their father's suspected murder and reclaim their family's name becomes a personal journey of self-redemption for the brothers. John, with his granite-like determination, and Tom, with his hot-headed charm, bring to life the struggle to reconcile their past failures with their mother's last wish.
'The Sons of Katie Elder' Revisits Classic Collaborations Close The Sons of Katie Elder offered John Wayne and Dean Martin a nostalgic opportunity to showcase their on-screen chemistry once more, this time as estranged brothers. Dean Martin used the role in the film to show his versatility as an actor. As Tom Elder, a man struggling with his own demons and guilt, Martin is more impulsive and emotionally volatile.
For Dennis Hopper, the film was a crucial step towards rebuilding his reputation in Hollywood. Hopper had been blackballed for being difficult to work with. Ironically, the notorious dispute that got him this reputation had been his tumultuous collaboration with Henry Hathaway on the set of From Hell to Texas. The Sons of Katie Elder gave Hopper a shot to show his work ethic and dedication to acting.
