John Wayne was a terrible man sometimes gave a voice to some terrible opinions. Politically conservative cinema star, Which crossed the Second World War While many of his famous peers are equal, such as Henry Fonda and James Stewart, who courageously served, they did not think about getting people looking and living differently from what he did. Practically, at this stage, he was martyred in a notorious interview Play Boy gave In 1971, but it is impossible to consider a man’s life responsible without noting that he believes “in white superiority until black is taught to the point of responsibility.” In the same conversation, he was also called “Midnight Cowboy”, who won the Best Image Award in 1969, “A Story of two F ***.” Roger Ebert has once wrote that Wayne was deeply “informed”, which leaves openly open to be less than fanaticism that was living in a different era. As a fan of man’s movies, I would like to believe this is true.

Not all John Wayne’s opinions were garbage. For example, in 1977, when he was asked before The people of the people To participate in an opinion poll where the former Academy Award winners nounted the top five preferred films and artists, he responded with some really interesting answers. Although it is amazing that the proud star was to put two of his own films in his list (“Researchers” and “The Quiet Man”), at least he was stubbornly submitted to emotional projects such as “The Alamo” (interesting failure) and “The Green Berets” (one of the worst films that have ever produced).

When it comes to his five favorite representatives, he managed to not name himself. I was really surprised by one of the names he left, but his higher choice makes a great deal of meaning.

For five decades, John Wayne has never been born a clear romantic chemistry with a more co -star than he did with Mourin Uhar in “Rio Grande”, “The Quiet Man”, “Wings of the Eagles”, “McLINTOCK!” And “Big Jake”, but he did not consider it one of the five greatest actors of all ages. However, it has set it “Rooster Cogburn” Co-Lead Katharine Hepburn On the third number in its list (although it defined its name incorrectly). Hepburn classified over Lawrence Olivier and Lionel Barrymore, but below Elizabeth Taylor.

In the first place with a bullet, Spencer Trissy was. Wayne was a great admire John Wayne: Life and Legend, Try to make him cast a veteran pulp in “The High and The Mighty”. Before Trissy initially, but he retreated in the last second (as he would not be throughout his career). Wayne was clearly not carried against the star, who may have been better remembered for the classic series he made with Hepburn. If you do not see the “woman of the year before”, “Adam’s rib” or “Pat and Mike”, then you deprive yourself of joy.

I am curious about what Wayne has thought about my favorite performance in Tarsi on “Bad Rock” for John Stores, where he plays the role of John J. Macardid, a old warrior who falls in the small town of California looking for the father of the Japanese American soldier who saved his life in World War II. Although he sat the conflict, Wayne made many films that celebrate the sacrifices of men who defeated the axis forces. But Storgs is partially revolving around the stain of Japanese -American detention camps in the United States during World War II. Wayne was recorded about the lack of admiration of the films that criticized the history of the nation (He also told Clint Eastwood) Therefore, this may make it wrong in a wrong way.

Regardless, I cannot argue with the choice of the Duke here. Tris was one of the best ever.
