What's your favorite John Wayne movie?
 
No poll, just need an answer.

The Cowboys or Big Jake.

Hmm. Tough choice to make but I would have to go with El Dorado

Sons of Katie Elder.

Sons of Katie Elder and True Grit were a very close second

Just FYI

The real Wyatt Earp was friends with John Wayne. They met on a movie set and became close friends. He gave him advise on how to be a cowboy, hold a gun etc. John Wayne gave him advise on how to get Wyatt Earps screenplays and books into the right hands of Hollywood.

Are you sure? Earp died before Wayne became a true star. It's not impossible, but it would have had to be REALLY early on and close to Earp's death, no?

Probably an urban legend.

Strangely not a western. The Quiet Man.

Fact according to the Duke. In multiple interviews over the years, he credited his believability as a cowboy to what Wyatt Earp taught him.

Their ages don't add up. Earp died in 1929. Wayne was still a sophomore football player at USC and hadn't thought of acting.
