Most people don't realize the connections and short time between the "Old West" and the birth of the film industry in Hollywood.

For instance: When you hear John Waynes voice, when you watch his mannerisms and look at his walk, you're almost watching Wyatt Earp. A young John Wayne met an old Wyatt Earp and then copied his walk, his talk, his character and became iconic doing so. Its fascinating to me.

History is always closer than it seems.

Absolutely right. My mom is a western artist. One of her mentors was Joe DeYong. He had all kinds of pictures of early actors wearing six gun holsters at rodeos, in saloons, on the street, etc... He had pictures of actors with several western legends. I don't recall if he had any of Wyatt Earp but I believe he did and I know Earp worked in Hollywood as a consultant. Joe did a lot of the mock ups for the outfits to be made for western actors.

Who wears short shorts?
Marion wears short shorts.

You must have an interesting search history.

hink Wayne was the best of his time. With the exception of Ben Johnson who was the best overall cowboy actor ever.

I got to meet Ben Johnson at one of my mom's shows when I was 15. Huge man both physically and his person. I'll never forget it and I've met lots of "famous" people. He was imposing, yet very nice to everyone.

Series totals:
Ben: 35,
Adam 28,
Hoss: 36,
Joe: 67.

Psssshaw... Adam was clearly the pussy of the clan.

I don't think you can get any better than Eastwood. Pale Rider is one of my favorite Westerns. Did John Wayne ever direct any of his Westerns?

What about Gary Cooper?

You know what, Agree Clint just might be the best..

Outlaw Josey ,Unforgiven and a bunch more.

Wayne directed some, but mostly a 2nd guy mentioned.

He wasn't by far the Director Eastwood is/was.

Imho when you sat with Grandpa ,It was Wayne , dude made numerous movies Good Times.

Grampy drank a few 16oz buds,I sat down was quite as Hell lol, and he told Grandma, get him a bowl of strawberry ice cream ,my fav.

My Grandfather had some strange issues, No Kids allowed in the house except me.

His thought was you made a kid, you are responsible, take care of them and not at My House.

Now there's much I could post etc, but when I sat with Grampy John Wayne was the best.

After he passed yeah Clint, but Grampy wasn't there.

Jmho.

John Wayne over Clint? Both completely different styles, huge, huge fan of both, If I really had to pick 1a over 1b, I’m afraid I’d probably go with Duke, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” The John Ford directed Cavalry Trilogies, good stuff

 

[Loyal]

You guys moved the goal posts on me in this thread. The original comparison was between Pernell Roberts and John Wayne. Roberts was a girlie boy compared to the Duke. Clint was my man and transcended the western genre...

 

[RamFan503]

My Grandfather had some strange issues,

Wait... Whut? Sorry. Couldn't help it.

Don’t you defile the legacy of Adam Cartwright by putting him in a sentence with that puss.

You mean that White Claw drinking Pernell Roberts? I thought that WAS the toupee wearing, biker wannabe, hiding behind his brothers, speedo sporting, puss that was Adam gurley man Cartwright.

Lol, My Bad. I love the grandkids, great nieces and nephews, want to see them any time I can.

My Grandfather Hell No,his opinion was had mine raised them now give me peace and quiet. And at 6'4 260 270 with monster hands he always got his respect.

And even thou my Grandfather had Canadian Bloodlines, he had great respect for the USA.

Reason I was the only grandkid allowed around his house, sleep over etc etc etc and beyond was cause my Father passed in Nam.Imho.

Now I'm not trying to change topic this or that,Hell all grandkids think Grampy is a little different lol.

Just had to inject my Grandfather, my Time with him, as to the reason why I loved John Wayne movies.
