Anybody else 'drop in' on the AMC July weekend marathon of John Wayne movies?

I was able to watch only three:
The Horse Soldiers
The Cowboys
Maclintock

I really enjoyed seeing The Cowboys - been years since I watched that movie. Lots of folks don't consider John Wayne a 'good' actor, but dang, I thought his performance in this movie was great.

H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    Anyone who say's the Duke is a bad actor, should be horse whipped!
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    + 1 on what your saying. The best acting he did IMHO was his role in "The Quiet Man"

    Love Duke!!! Hate AMC since they changed their format quite a while back. I wish TCM (Turner Classic Movies) would do a Duke-a-thon! No commercials lots of good backround info on the movies.

    I think the duke was a great actor. At least compared to today's fodder. And he was tough because he WAS TOUGH. Not because he went to the spa to get some biceps.
