The rules of the range are simple at best, Should you venture in that habitat, Don't cuss a man's dog, be good to the cook, And don't mess with a cowboy's hat. ~ Baxter Black

Maureen O'Hara mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!
My wife's favorite movie and she really likes the John Wayne. We have worn out a couple of VHS copies and are on our second DVD. Carry the J W movies in the RV and watch them rather than TV--I refuse to set up a satelite dish every time we stop. Second favorite is Big Jake, but I like The Cowboys too.
My grand children all liked to watch these old westerns when smaller, but now all but two have outgrown watching with Papa.

That look on your face, when you shift into 6th gear, but it's not there.
A movie without either John or Clint is just a cartoon.
Information not shared. is wasted.
Great movie, one of his best. My personal favorite is the Searchers followed by the Cowboys then it.
In spite of continuity problems, it's still one of my favorite John Wayne movies.
About 6 or 8 minutes into the movie, the Duke is talking to a fellow rancher about Texas eventually becoming a State (which happened in 1845).
Not much further into the movie, Chill Wills is talking about trying to shoot one of the Indians with his "Sharps 50 caliber" during "that trouble back in the '40s".
In the scene where Stefanie Powers comes home from college, Jerry Van Dyke, who comes home on the same train as Stefanie Powers, speaks to Maureen O'Hara and mentions that he was valedictorian, class of '95
When Stefanie Powers joins the Duke while he's out hunting, he tells her that when she was a baby (she's now about 22) her mother (Maureen O'Hara) stayed home with her in a sod hut under 8 feet of snow (8 feet of snow on the Texas plains?) while he moved a herd of cattle 300 miles. Earlier in the movie he states that the Chinese cook has been working for him for 30 years.
In the scene where Stefanie Powers demands that "Father" (Wayne) shoot Devlin Warren (Patrick Wayne) for "impugning" her honor and Wayne shoots Devlin (Patrick Wayne) with a starter pistol, it first shows a smallish powder burn about 5 inches up from Patrick Wayne's belt buckle. Next shot of Patrick Wayne, he's sitting on the floor with a much larger powder burn slightly right of center chest.
Never could stand Stefanie Powers

One of the most endearing sights in the world is the vision of a naked good-looking woman leaving the bedroom to make breakfast. Bolivar Shagnasty (I believe that Lazarus Long also said it, but I can't find any record of it.)
I think I liked Big Jake better. I guess I'll have to set down and watch them back to back.

Hi,
Patrick Wayne, talked one time in an interview about making that movie.
I think they shot the town scenes in Old Tucson and Patrick and his father had to bunk together as things were crowded.
He said it was some of the best time spent with his father and he would never forget it!
My personal favorite is the "Quite Man" and 4 ofJohn Waynes children play extras in it, (the horse race)
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” -Samuel Adams
