The Searchers, Story Prediction.

Having studied the characters in the first 3 minutes of The Searchers, I found out that Ethan the main character is civil war veteran was fighting for the south. He seems a very adventurous but isolated and bitter character. Ethan is dominant around his sensible older brother's family.

Aaron, Ethan's older brother is the sensible and quieter brother, with a family and also enough essentials to keep a family a fairly large house, food etc.

Martha is Aaron's wife in the first few minutes it comes across she is caring, polite, thoughtful, organised and loving.

There seems to be some tension between Ethan and Aaron over Martha. Even though Martha is married to Aaron she longs for the love of Ethan. We know this because of a few signs Martha was waiting at her porch for Ethan coming home as she does every day at this time. Ethan kisses Martha on the forehead, she cherishes this moment. Also Aaron and Ethan barely utter a word to each other and when they do it seems a little abrupt. This gives the picture there is some bad history between them over Martha.

The Searchers could turn out to be a sort of Love triangle. From the title, I think Martha could possibly be captured by thugs and Ethan will go with his brother Aaron and try and rescue Martha. It would seem there would be a lot of tension and conflict if the story went this way throwing issues of love, trust and jealousy up in the air.
