I Harrumph You...
And raise you a harrumph. I believe this fellow's post is a backhanded bitchslap at me for my last post. Listen, brother: John Wayne was a god, but he was a shitty Mongol.
No, I prefer Wayne in The Cowboys. The Searchers. The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Those roles where he wasn't exactly a murdering hordesman, but was a decidedly compromised individual. And never kid yourself about his acting abilities. Wayne subsumed the role, not the other way around. You went to see him. The plot, the character were often, but not always peripheral (see: Hellfighters).
I DO like Hatari, even so.
So there you go, chunkheads.
