john wayne best moments

[@DIDYOUSEETHAT172]

The biggest failing in Hollywood was in not recognizing John's talent as an actor while he was active. He was so natural and graceful in his performances that people said he wasn't a good actor, when the opposite was true. If you can see an actor acting then they ain't doing their job. He should have been nominated for the Searchers and a number of other pictures.

"Slap some bacon on a biscuit & let's go! We're burnin daylight" - THE DUKE

[@beckypeters5449]

My husband wants that quote on his headstone

[@williamstyers4264]

John Wayne really only played one character in every movie that he made. He played John Wayne and did it with such style that there will never be anyone close to him. The only movie of his that I thought was miscast was "The Conqueror" in which he played Temujin (aka Genghis Khan). It was actually funny in a way from beginning to end since the dialogue was almost Shakespearean in character and the Duke, bless his soul, never deviated from the old John Wayne drawl. Still it was entertaining.

[@dancarv.4270]

Agreed. Mr. Wayne was always himself. And he was the best

[@barbaras6792]

Just love John Wayne. The Duke. 👍👍👍👍

[@johnclerk1195]

You hit the nail on the head.... each movie from the 60s and 70s were all made using the same "formula." And every one of them are classics. He used a lot of the same actors in them too. I remember going to the drive-in in 1970 to see "Hell Fighters." I wish I could find that movie online again... Yes, I said a drive-in movie. If you were in genZ, don't worry about it, you missed them. Every high school kid's on the weekend included a drive in with beer from someone's dad's stash in the garage.. lol

[@robertmckelvie2968]

Interesting to note that John Wayne's passion project was the Alamo which he directed and produced and he wasn't really that interested in being in the maiden star and he was going to be in a cameo appearance of Sam Houston but producers coerced him into playing the lead role of Davy Crockett.

There will never be the like of him again.that walk that drawl....he was a brilliant artist..bless him

[@ironwolfgaming9632]

I don't want to ruin it for you - but John Wayne actually met Wyatt Earp and after talking to him and watching him walk he copied his every move. What you are seeing is Wyatt Earp move and talk, John Wayne decided if a real life tough guy used those mannerism - so could he.

[@tommypetersen2540]

@Leo Peridot with all due respect to you but he deviate....a lot! Ethan Edwards is miles apart from Rooster Cogburn who is miles apart from the Shootist. Like Fonda and Tracey, he was a "personality actor" so yes there always a bit of "him" in his roles but not the same person.

"McClintock" was John Wayne at his funniest. "The Shootist" was John Wayne at his most vulnerable. John Wayne's death in that movie mirrors his real life death. I hope this last 40 years have been peaceful for him.

[@KLUNKET]

@@JMS849 Even if they don't, the statement still rings true... John Wayne suffered greatly for the last few years of his life, went through many operations, had a lot of pain... so even if there is no life after death, the Duke isn't suffering anymore, so one could still say for the last 40+ years he has been at peace. No more suffering.

On May 26, 2020 John Wayne would have been 113. He was bigger than life on the big screen. But there was a movie in which he had one line only. In The Greatest Story Ever Told, he played the Centurion at the foot of the cross. His line was, "truly, this man was the Son of God." The movie is a Hollywood version of the many stories of the Bible.

Among my favorites(in no particular order): Big Jake, The Cowboys, True Grit and The Shootist (which I didn't happen to see any clips of in this video, so I hope you got a part 2.

[@fakenews6133]

I remember this story of Mr. Wayne and Frank Sonatra. The two famously hated eachother, so it was a cruel twist from fate that put Wayne' hotel room the floor above Sonatra's late night room party. When repeated complaint calls to the hotel management only resulted in an increase in volume, he went downstairs to sort it out himself. When Sonatra answered the door, Wayne gave him his rightfully owned piece of his mind. Sonatra's bodyguard took offense with the classic "Hey! you cant talk to him that way!" and moving in for the intimidating staredown Wayne left, but not before knocking the guard's jaw into orbit and crashing the nearest chair over the guy's head. Wayne wasn't an actor, he was a cowboy with a camera crew.

Leonard Malton once said "the thing missing from most westerns is John Wayne"' so true. People forget that he was not a real cowboy. He was an outstanding actor who studied his craft. He was as good, natural, instinctive, and talented asCooper, Tracey, and Fonda yet never gets credit because like them he made it look easy. Too many reviewed his politics (which even as a Canadian I agree with) and not his work. Just look at the Searchers and then True Grit. The man had range! A great actor and my hero.....always

Poor great actor Robert Duvall had to be the object of one of the greatest western lines that ever came out of John Wayne's mouth: "Fill your hands you son of a bitch." You can become a legendary actor just for having someone like Wayne say that to you in a film like True Grit. Somehow I knew way back then that Duvall would be one of the greats as well, and in westerns he did.
