John Wayne was a great actor from 1959 onwards. His earlier stuff is more formulaic and boorish but he makes up for it by being incredibly visual. He looks fantastic in everything he ever did. I like to fall asleep watching his old B-movie westerns nowadays. He has way more shitty old b movies than he has classics, the man earned his place.

John Wayne is one of my heroes, along with the inescapably talented Burt Lancaster. Great men in a great time.

I wish now was then.

I'll never watch one. I've also never heard the song "Sweet Caroline" which I've learned drives some people mad.
