I know he is dead and a long time now but i still watch his movies weither they be westerns or war pictures. So what is the best John Wayne film. Do forgive me should i miss a few for he did do over 75 movies. I am paying a rare tribute to one of my favorite old screen legends. GIve mea few moments to post the poll.
 
The searchers, but movies like rio bravo, stagecoatch , el dorado, red river or the longest day are close.

Where are the man who shot liberty vallance?
 
1- The Searchers (even the Duke's fav)
2- Red River
3- The Longest Day
4- Rio Bravo
5- They Were Expendable (which you forgot)
6- Stagecoach
7- The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (which you ALSO forgot)
 
Too many good ones to choose. The Searchers, Big Jake, Rio Bravo, El Dorado, etc etc.

:up:
 
Well I was gonna say The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, but someone forgot it. :P

So I'll take The Longest Day.
 
I love John Wayne... an amazing actor!

I liked the Searchers the best or The Stagecoach. But I love all of his films.
 
I'll put my dad's favorite, The Cowboys, which isn't even up there :mad:

Well ive bought a few rap albums and most of them at one time or another sold drugs and killed people but i let it slide if the music was good
As for whether they hate blacks,as far as i know Cruise doesn't,his crime is he likes Scientology and couch jumping but Mel hates the Jews if that counts

...so?

How does that weaken The Searchers? How does that weaken John Ford's amazing direction?

Have you ever seen the Searchers, by the way? It's one of those late Westerns that actually gives us a complicated portrayal of a cowboy's racism. It's some ****ing dark stuff. I personally found it transcended anything that could have gone on in one of the actors' personal lives.
 
It lessen the icon that John Wayne has become. He is considered ALL AMERICAN. Well if 'All American' is defined on the back of a raicist bigot, then the term 'ALL AMERICAN' becomes a slap in the face to our multi-raced society-each of which had a hand in building this great country. Too me knowing that this icon was a bigot knocks him off the high pedistool that most of Americas seems to hold him on.....

Thank you because everyone seems to worship him and his movies. He was a crappy actor and an a**hole

If John Wayne is such a bigot why did he make sure native american actors were treated fairly on set and he is reported to have been very nice to black people and all types of differant races. Unless you were there how do you know. I would not bring up a comment like that on your own opinion.
 
We are talking here are about profesional life, not private. I dont care how John Wayne was in real life if he has a so great philmography as he has.
