Yeah. And the one where he was a boxer.

I think we need an 8 week poll/tournament, with 20 rounds, to really determine which is the best!

I'd prefer John Wayne vs. Elvis Presley. Which Presley movie could take out Genghis Khan? The one where he's a race car driver moonlighting as a singer, or the one where he's a singer moonlighting as a race car driver? Or the one where he's a bartender moonlighting as a singing race car driver?

It would be easier to tell ones I didn't like. I wasn't fond of Cahill US Marshall and The Shepard of the Hills. I didn't hate it but Hatari wasn't a favorite.

I guess favorites would be Big Jake, The Cowboys, Searchers and Comancheros.

Shepherd of the Hills was garbage.

Quote:

Winning a football scholarship to University of Southern California (USC), Wayne started college in the fall of 1925. He joined the Sigma Chi fraternity and continued to be a strong student. Unfortunately, after two years, an injury took him off the football field and ended his scholarship. While in college, Wayne had done some work as a film extra, appearing as a football player in Brown of Harvard (1926) and Drop Kick (1927).

Out of school, Wayne worked as an extra and a prop man in the film industry. He first met director John Ford while working as an extra on Mother Machree (1928)
