John Wayne movies.

So many good scenes come to mind, there's no way I could pick a favorite! The fight scene from "The Quiet Man" came to mind first, though.

Here's a scene from "Laugh-In" that perhaps not everyone has seen. He could be silly with the best of them![ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOsZDfFiIYQ[/ame]
 
The Shootist and The Cowboys need to be on the top 10... in my not so humble opinion. Oh, and Trie Grit....make it top 13.

I believe those are the only two movies Wayne made in which his character died in the film. (Shootist & Cowboys) Anybody think of another one?

I watch him every chance I get, even if I've seen it multiple times.

"The Cowboys", killed by Bruce Dern. My wife has hated Bruce Dern since that movie, ha.
BTW, a fan of all John Wayne movies, "The Cowboys" is probably one of our favorite. And since we live in a small development where all streets are names after John Wayne movies/characters, we kind of like True Grit and Rooster Coburn (and the lady) as we live on Rooster Cogburn Ct.

Haha that's awesome.

That's a good way to ensure you won't have any "woke" neighbors!
 
No one has mentioned one of my favorite John Wayne movie , " Blood Alley " with Lauren Bacall . It was originally supposed to star Robert Mitchum but John Wayne couldn't agree on somethings so he (John Wayne ) said that he play the leading role and behind the camera work as the Director .

I'm getting to like old westerns . We have a channel that is all old western shows and movies . I am also partial to the "Duke" movies . I saw one the other night from 1941 , can't remember the name . It was about these moonshiners that lived back in the hills . His dad came back from prison and was trying to find a way to tell the Duke that he was his son . Won't ruin the story , it's worth watching .
 
The Shepard of the Hills.

I can see that we "might" need to change our approach. John Wayne is credited with 180 acting appearances with roughly 10 of them being spots on TV shows, not movies. So make it 170 movies which he was in.

Perhaps we should list the 10 Worst John Wayne movies?
 
I am trying to get all of his movies on DVD. It has been taking some time. So far I have 69, guess I better get back on the trail of more of them.
 
Just watched one yesterday that I had not seen before, "The Spoilers" John Wayne, Marlene Dietrich, Randolph Scott...Very enjoyable...Damn, she was a pretty woman. Sultry too.
