<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">When The Legend Became Fact - The
True Life of John Wayne by Richard Douglas Jensen is really just another
attempt by a self-important liberal to destroy the image of John Wayne. Much
like Garry Wills’ book, “John Wayne: The Politics of Celebrity,” there is far
too much anti-Wayne bias in this book. Like Wills, Jensen relies on
undocumented and unsubstantiated claims to support his predetermined goal of
damaging the reputation of a dead man who cannot defend himself. In fact, the
editorial review of this book states outright that it is a “deconstruction of
the mythology surrounding the life” of John Wayne, although, according to
Jensen, he does this only to show that John Wayne was a real person – human just
like everyone else.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Among the many so-called “facts”
(actually unsubstantiated claims) presented by Jensen are that, John Wayne was:
a raging violent and abusive man, a wife beater, a child abuser, a severe
alcoholic, a petty and mean prima donna, a narcissist, a chronic adulterer, a
woman chasing sex addict who bedded nearly all of his female costars (as well
as any loose woman he could find), a draft dodger, a manipulative jerk, a chauvinist
who beat his lovers, bisexual (with John Ford, no less, as his lover), a cowboy
wannabe who could never master any cowboy skills – and hated horses with a
passion, and so much more.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Clearly, Mr. Jensen’s “more than 30
years of researching John Wayne” was spent in crafting untruths and outright
lies about his subject. I, for one, sincerely hope that he prepares his legal
briefs with at least a bit more attention to the truth (Mr. Jensen is, can you
believe it, a practicing attorney known as “the Law Guru.”)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Aside from the virtually
non-existent editing, poor grammar, poor sentence structure, misspelled words,
and overall shoddiness of Jensen’s book (most third grade teachers would cringe
while reading it – High School English teachers would give it an F-), Jensen’s
book is filled with half-truths, blatant lies, and poorly crafted revised
history (and he calls himself an historian!). </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Jensen claims that he spent more
than 30 years researching a biography of Ben Johnson and more than 30 years
researching a biography of Tom Mix (this coupled with more than 30 years – he really
likes that number – of researching John Wayne, makes one wonder when he found
time for law school!), both of which Jensen claims knew Wayne and had “experienced
the darker side of John Wayne” (cue the ominous music). Although it is well
known that Johnson knew Wayne, and was a good friend, Mix, on the other hand,
didn’t know John Wayne from Adam. Yes, they had met back in 1925-1926, and Mix
had spoken with Wayne, promising that he would make Wayne his personal trainer
and that he would take him on location during the filming of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Great K&A Train Robbery</i> (which
he did. Wayne propped the film and appeared briefly as an uncredited extra – a face
in the crowd), Mix never socialized with Wayne, and promptly forgot his promise
to hire Wayne as a trainer. The reality was, that Mix only made that promise in
order to get some free tickets out of Howard Jones to USC football games.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Jensen, however, fabricates a convoluted
story in which Mix pulled strings to get Wayne hired as a prop man, and that
Wayne took it as an insult – a grudge that he held against Mix for years.
Jensen even includes a fairy tale in which Mix, a former “real life” sheriff
caught John Wayne glaring at him, and Mix stared Wayne down with a cold steely-eyed
gaze that would send shivers down the spine of the bravest of men. What a load
of sheep dip! Mix was only a part-time deputy sheriff in Dewey, Oklahoma, and
was described by the actual sheriff as a “show-off.” (By the way Mr. Jensen,
Mix was also never a Rough Rider, and actually went AWOL when he was in the
Army. Your hero was in reality a poseur and a criminal.)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Interestingly, Jensen states at the
beginning of his book that a “flurry of books and articles have been published
throughout the past 30 years that have virtually deified John Wayne. Some are
so ineptly crafted and so full of unsubstantiated ‘facts’ that it is alarming
to the historian in me.” After reading Jensen’s book, my advice to him is “that
historian you’re holding hostage inside of you? Let him go! Stop torturing him
with your ridiculous revisionist nonsense!”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Jensen claims that this new book of
his will cause “new, although unnecessary, furor among the protectors of the
John Wayne legacy.” He’s probably right, but not for the reason he thinks.
There will undoubtedly be an uproar, but it will be caused by Jensen’s
obviously biased and unbalanced review of Wayne’s life. But I do understand why
he would put such a statement near the beginning of his book. He does so simply
to discount his detractors right from the get go, before they can voice the
truth about this book. Typical liberal. Typical lawyer. I would expect nothing
less from him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">And Jensen does not find himself
content to simply spread lies and false rumors about John Wayne, as he also
sets his sights on telling lies about his family as well. There is no evidence
that John Wayne’s father, Clyde Morrison, ever owned his own drug store (as
Jensen claims), and in fact, there are those who knew him who insist that he
did not. There is also no evidence that Wayne’s father beat his wife (as Jensen
claims). </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Jensen also claims that Clyde not
only owned his own drugstore, but also purchased a nice two-story home while in
Iowa, but later lost it, and never owned another home. In reality, he did not
purchase a home in Iowa, but did when the family moved to Glendale. It was that
home that he eventually lost. Jensen also claims that the Morrison’s were
actually quite well off, as evidenced by Clyde purchasing a farm in California.
Sorry Mr. Jensen, that “farm” was actually purchased by his father. Not by
Clyde. When the farm failed, he sold it and moved into Glendale (not Burbank),
where the family lived from 1916 until 1930 (Wayne until 1925), when Clyde
moved to Long Beach. Check the censuses Mr. Jensen, they are online you know,
and easy to check. And in case you’re wondering, Mr. Jensen, this is known as
research. Just saying.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I could actually go on and on and
on, quite literally writing a book of my own pointing out the glaring
inaccuracies and untruths found in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">When
The Legend Became Fact – The True Life of John Wayne</i>, but I think I have
made my point quite well by now. If you’re looking for a good book about John Wayne,
I would heartily recommend <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">John Wayne:
American</i> by Randy Roberts and James Olsen, or <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">There Rode A Legend</i> by Jane Pattie and Wilma Russell, or any number
of other great books about John Wayne. But stay away from Richard Jensen’s
book. Stay far away. And as a fan and researcher of John Wayne for the better
part of 50 years (top that Mr. Jensen!), that is my advice to anyone looking
for a book about John Wayne.</span></div>

Analytical Guide” (riveting, I’m sure). According to Mr. Jensen’s “Bios”
(assumedly written by him), he is not only an award winning author, but he is
also a trial attorney known as “The Law Guru,” and he has been practicing law
in Alabama for 13 years, since 1995. His web site is called “The Alabama Sex
Crimes Defense Lawyer.” Maybe it’s just me, but when the terms “Guru” and “Sex

Roberts, the self-aggrandizing
"film historian" who found it necessary to puff out his over-sized
belly and attack the content of The New Frontier website (see the previous blog
post), has not ceased his attack. Rather than dwell on the most recent rants to
be found on his closed forum (and they are ranting even as I write this, which proves the old adage, "he who shouts loudest is the most
guilty"), however, I will focus only on the post which is directly related to the
question at hand - Is This John Wayne?<br />
<br />
One of the pages on The New Frontier website, is titled, Is This John Wayne?
As many Wayne fans are aware, John Wayne was involved in a number of films that
have never made it into any printed filmographies. The primary reasons for this
are 1) Wayne's admission that he worked on so many films back in his early days
in Hollywood that he could not remember them all, and 2) the lack of screen
credit for each and every extra or crew member (remember, Wayne also did prop
works, stunts, lighting, electrical, and more on several films). In the
interest of honest research and a desire to attempt to locate some of his
previously unknown work, a good number of old films that he may have worked on
are being reviewed, often one frame at a time. When a possible sighting of John
Wayne is made, a screen shot is taken and those screen shots are posted on The
New Frontier.<br />
<br />
As you no doubt noticed in the previous blog post, Mr. Roberts has taken
exception to the theory that John Wayne appeared in the Lloyd “Ham” Hamilton
comedy short, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Careful Please</i>. Several
screen shots where posted. Mr. Roberts stated that not only did John Wayne not
appear in any of those screen shots, but that he actually owned the only
existing print of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Careful Please</i>, that
it was “razor-sharp,” and that all digital prints (DVD’s) of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Careful Please</i> had been made from his “razor-sharp”
print, but were all unfocused and difficult to see. The obvious question here
is, since all the DVD’s were made from his “razor-sharp” print, then why aren’t
they “razor-sharp” as well?<br />
<br />
I made the point that if Mr. Roberts was so all-fired sure that John Wayne
is not shown in the screen shots, then why not post screen shots from his own “razor-sharp”
print, and lay to rest any doubts about Wayne’s appearance. Mr. Roberts stated
that he did not have a digital copy of his print (from which all existing
digital copies had been made), but that he would be will to sell a digital copy
of his “razor-sharp” print. (Hmmmmm?) Less than 24 hours after Mr. Roberts
posted this, he posted another commentary in which he stated that he had
forgotten that he actually did have a digital print of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Careful Please</i>, and he promptly posted screen shots. What is very
interesting (at least to me), is that the screen shots Mr. Roberts posted to
support his claim that Wayne did not appear in the film, all come from the Slap
Happy series that Mr. Roberts not only wrote, but was intimately involved with.
Now, one would imagine that since he was so involved with the Slap Happy
series, that he would ensure that the digital print made from his “razor-sharp”
print would be just as clear and just as crisp as his print. Obviously.<br />
<br />
So at this time, I will leave you, my friends, to make the decision. Is This
John Wayne? Look close and compare the inferior, out-of-focus, blurry screen
shot that appears on The New Frontier website, with the “razor-sharp” screen
shots provided by Mr. Roberts.<br />

Now, to be fair, Mr. Roberts did say that the screen shots he posted from his "razor-sharp" master print may appear to be a little blurry because they are action shots, as are the screen shots used on The New Frontier website. There are also some comparison photos that are known to be of John Wayne on The New Frontier website with which to compare these screen shots. <a href="http://dukefanclub.weebly.com/is-this-john-wayne.html">http://dukefanclub.weebly.com/is-this-john-wayne.html</a>The New Frontierhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15217395983043236431noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782416249251311862.post-8498789195950029632012-04-26T18:43:00.000-07:002012-04-26T18:44:39.949-07:00An Open Letter to Richard M. Roberts (and his loyal sycophantic friends)<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Regarding the Silent Comedy Mafia forum thread entitled “John
Wayne NOT in CAREFUL PLEASE with Lloyd Hamilton,” I would like to clarify some
of Mr. Roberts glaring inaccuracies, as well as rebut his inaccurate points and
respond to his obvious “cyber-bullying.” I would have posted this on same forum
used by Mr. Roberts to post his comments, however, Mr. Roberts has made it a
point to post on a closed forum, thereby preventing those who disagree with him
from posting comments that may provide information contrary to Mr. Roberts’s
self-appointed gospel; which, of course, allows Mr. Roberts to appear correct
and knowledgeable. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
(Mr. Roberts’s comments regarding the contents of my website
can be found at: <a href="http://www.silentcomedymafia.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=627&sid=e81a36501d79b0464d6b564f3e78f463">http://www.silentcomedymafia.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=627&sid=e81a36501d79b0464d6b564f3e78f463</a>
providing he does not delete them.)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mr. Roberts is insistent that John Wayne not only is not,
but <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">could</i></b>
not appear in the Lloyd “Ham” Hamilton silent comedy <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Careful Please</i>. Mr. Roberts states: (please note I have not
attempted to correct any of Mr. Roberts’s spelling or grammatical errors. I
will leave that to his own overworked editors.)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Lets just say we're
putting a myth to bed before it spreads: I was glancing over at the other minor
silent comedy newsgroup this morning and saw someone getting all hot and
bothered that they had "discovered" John Wayne as an extra in CAREFUL
PLEASE starring Lloyd Hamilton. John Wayne once reminisced in an interview that
he had done bit parts in several Hamilton comedies when he was starting out,
and that has led this person to look at CAREFUL PLEASE on the Looser than Loose
DVD and determined that it is the Duke in several freeze frames from the looser
Than Loose Transfer…”</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Apparently Mr. Roberts has deemed the other silent comedy
newsgroup to be a “minor” forum (SilentComedians.com http://www.silentcomedians.com/forum/index.php ), and therefore somehow inferior to his forum.
Considering that at least one well respected and established author uses this forum,
I would hardly call it a “minor” newsgroup.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Mr. Roberts goes on to say, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“as the owner
of the razor-sharp original Bell and Howell Show-at-Home printdown that the
rather middling dupe of CAREFUL PLEASE that Dave Stevenson used for his LTL
video transfer was made from, I pulled the print and looked at it carefully in
slow motion, and I hate to say I disagree that it is John Wayne in that scene.”</i>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Congratulations to Mr. Roberts for owning the “razor-sharp
original Bell and Howell Show-at-Home printdown” (which he later states was <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">the</i></b>
print that all DVD prints have been made from). Unfortunately, Mr. Roberts
fails to post any screen shots from his “razor-sharp” print to substantiate his
claim. We have nothing but his word to go by. Mr. Roberts does offer to sell
interested parties a copy of his print, but without posting proof that his copy
is indeed “razor-sharp” and therefore superior to all other existing prints and
DVDs, we again have nothing to substantiate his claim. Nothing but his
unsubstantiated word. His unsubstantiated opinion.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Mr. Roberts continues his comments by saying, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“The last problem is the timing. CAREFUL PLEASE was released February
7, 1926, which means it went into production no later than December,1925, and
could have certainly been produced earlier. Wayne was at USC at the time, and
did not even get into the movies until Tom MIx got him a summer job as a prop
man at Fox in the late Spring/Summer of 1926. CAREFUL PLEASE is just a hair
early to be one of the Hamilton comedies Wayne had a bit or extra role in,
especially when he remembered doing the Hamilton comedies after he was already
at Fox.”</i> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Lloyd “Ham” Hamilton biographer Anthony Balducci stated in
an email that was forwarded to me, that Hamilton’s comedy shorts were usually
in production for one or two months prior to their release. Since Careful
Please was released February 7, 1926, production likely started during December
1925, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">and probably not before that</i></b>. Mr. Roberts correctly states that
John Wayne was still at USC during that time, but he is incorrect in his
statement that Wayne “did not even get into the movies until Tom Mix got him a
summer job as a propman at Fox in the late Spring/Summer of 1926.” If Mr.
Roberts had bothered to do his homework before offering this statement, he
would have known that John Wayne appeared in at least two films <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">before</i></b>
working at Fox or on Mix’s Great K&A Train Robbery. Those films are <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bardeley’s the Magnificent</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brown of Harvard</i>, both produced at MGM
before production commenced on K&A.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<br />
Throughout Mr. Roberts’s comments, he continues to hammer home his belief that
Wayne could not have appeared in Careful Please. Roberts states: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“The facts are this. Wayne recalled first
meeting John Ford on the set of MOTHER MACHREE while Wayne was working as a
propman handling geese in the picture. MOTHER MACHREE’s principal photography
and production dates are from August 24 to October 14, 1926. CAREFUL PLEASE was
shot sometime in November-December 1925. It is absolutely impossible that Wayne
could have been in a Lloyd Hamilton picture nearly a year before he met Ford if
he was introduced to Hamilton by Ford. …</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“In the two interviews in which John
Wayne ever mentioned Lloyd Hamilton, he mentioned that he had bit roles in
Hamilton’s comedies AFTER he began working at Fox as a propman. In the
interview she quotes Wayne as saying “I finally got bit parts in a few other
films. Ham Hamilton was the director of those films. He was a friend of Ford’s
and the latter asked Hamilton to give me a chance at acting if he had any bit
parts to cast me in”. …</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Wayne did not meet Ford until after he
began working at Fox which is indeed after he began working with Tom Mix as a
propman, which easily puts the timeline into the last half of 1926, putting
CAREFUL PLEASE way chronologically out of reach with its late 1925 production
and it’s early February 1926 release date (Interestingly, she does not list
CAREFUL PLEASE or any of Hamilton's 1926 releases in her list of potential
candidates for a Wayne appearance in a Hamilton comedy). John Wayne’s memory
regarding chronology and his career in interviews was usually pretty on target,
so there is no reason to doubt his memory in the order of events, and even
referring to Hamilton as Director rather than Producer doesn’t mean much as
Hamilton was the star comedian with his own unit at Educational, with certainly
a large degree of control over his films no matter who was listed as the
Director. …</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“I can add my own testimony as I met and
spoke with Mr. Wayne several times in my life. I’m 6’8” tall, and when standing
he came up reasonably close to eye-contact level. He was definitely around 6’
4” tall.”</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is nothing more than theory posited by Mr. Roberts. I
have another theory that not only makes sense regarding when Wayne met Ford and
when Ford told Hamilton to put Wayne in front of the camera, but also readily
explains away Mr. Roberts’s theory. John Wayne himself said, “I finally got bit
parts in a few other films. Ham Hamilton was the director of those films. He
was a friend of Ford’s and the latter asked Hamilton to give me a chance at
acting, if he had any bit parts, to cast me in!” (as quoted in The Great Cowboy
Stars of Movies and Television” by Lee O. Miller, 1979). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We know that Wayne worked at other studios before (and
during) his time at Fox. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">WHAT IF</i></b> he was working on a film
set, and was seen by Hamilton, and if Hamilton knew Ford, he may have mentioned
to Ford something like, "I saw this kid on a set, he looks like he may
look good on camera too"; and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">WHAT IF</i></b> Ford then told Hamilton,
"Well, then put him in front of the camera as an extra in a few of your
shorts if you can find room for him, and let's see how he looks." <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">WHAT
IF</i></b> later Ford, or Hamilton mentioned this to Wayne. This would fit
perfectly with Wayne and Ford's accounts of meeting on Mother Machree (as Ford
would not have met Wayne at the time of this possible conversation), and it
would also fit Wayne's statement that Ford had asked Hamilton to put him in
front of the camera if Hamilton could find room for him. Wayne may have also
been noticed by Borzage and Mix, both of whom knew Ford, and they too may have
mentioned Wayne to Ford (all before Mother Machree) and these comments to Ford
by these different people <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">MAY</i></b> have influenced Ford to give
Wayne a shot on <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mother Machree</i>. While
I admit this is pure conjecture on my part, Mr. Roberts’s theory is also, at best,
pure conjecture. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Some, like Mr. Roberts, have relied on the words of John Ford when attempting
to discern just exactly when Wayne and Ford met, and they use those words to
determine if Wayne worked on any films prior to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mother Machree</i> (and thus ignoring factual information in the
process). It must be understood that John Ford was not always forthright and
honest when it came to certain “facts.” We know that Ford gave himself credit
for "discovering" John Wayne, but we also know that Wayne worked on
other films before Ford had met him. We also know that Ford gave himself credit
for a lot of things that he did not do, for example, "discovering"
Monument Valley. Ford had not been there prior to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Stagecoach</i> in 1939, but we know that Wayne was there in 1929
herding horses into Monument Valley for the production of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Lone Star Ranger</i> (which, according to Wayne, he also appeared in as
an extra - as did Ward Bond). So it is conceivable that Ford's “discovery"
of John Wayne was actually prompted by comments made by many others who had
seen and worked with Wayne prior to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mother
Machree</i>, especially in light of the films Wayne is known to have worked on
prior to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mother Machree</i>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And please allow me a bit of skepticism here regarding your claim
to have “met and spoke with Mr. Wayne several times” in your life, Mr. Roberts.
Perhaps I am being overly kind, but you really do not look (at least in the
photos I have seen of you) to be old enough to have met and spoken with Mr.
Wayne several times in your life. I would hazard a guess that if you did meet
with him, you were at best a young teenager, and not likely 6’8” tall at that
time. I could be wrong, of course, but this is my observation.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mr. Roberts attempts to discredit (albeit unknowingly) the
theory I have posited by stating, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“And
one more correction, Lloyd Hamilton and John Ford were not close friends.
Checking again with my buddy Scott Eyman, who wrote the premiere book on John
Ford, PRINT THE LEGEND, just as he is now writing what will most likely be the
premiere book on John Wayne, in all of the voluminous correspondence, family
papers, and et all he went through in researching that book, Lloyd Hamilton’s
name did not come up once. At the same time, in researching Lloyd Hamilton,
which I have been doing for over thirty years, in all of the papers, photos,
personal correspondence et al I have gone through and or have in my personal
collection, not one mention of John Ford.” </i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Perhaps I missed something, but I don’t believe anyone
anywhere has stated that Lloyd Hamilton and John Ford were “close friends.”
John Wayne stated that Hamilton was “a friend of Ford’s.” He did not say “close
friend.” Be that as it may, however, Mr. Roberts’s statement that in all the “voluminous
correspondence, family papers, et all [sic]” of John Ford, and in “all of the
papers, photos, personal correspondence, et al” of Lloyd Hamilton, neither
mention each other. Mr. Roberts intimation here is that Ford and Hamilton
likely did not know each other at all. If this is true, Mr. Roberts, are saying
that John Wayne lied? That he was clearly mistaken? Interesting since you also
claim that John Wayne’s memory was usually <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“pretty
on target”</i> and that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“there is no
reason to doubt his memory”.</i> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In all of this Mr. Roberts, you put forth a lot of theory
and opinion to disprove the idea that John Wayne appeared in Careful Please,
when all you really had to do was provide screen shots from your “razor-sharp”
print of Careful Please. Doing so would remove all doubt and give your position
a rock-solid foundation. And yet you have not done this. Instead you simply go
on and on talking up your theory and opinion, bolstered with unfounded theories
and opinions, and outright untruths. Miss Reid posted her screen shots to
support her theory, why don’t you? Perhaps you are unable or unwilling? Perhaps
you would rather provide those screen shots for a price. One would think a
self-anointed “film historian” and self-proclaimed “expert” such as yourself
would need to make some money somehow. I suppose this is as good a method as
any.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Not only does Mr. Roberts fail to provide documented
evidence to support his faulty theory, but he goes on to personally attack Miss
Reid. He states: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Ms. Elly Reid (the person who makes the claim to have spotted Wayne in
the film and is making the posts on the other group) first complains that she
is not allowed to rebut me on the silent comedy mafia newsgroup to begin with.
Oh well, I am not allowed to rebut her on that other minor silent comedy
newsgroup either, we all have our crosses to bear….”</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mr. Roberts goes on to put forth several sarcastic comments
such as Miss Reid was <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“told by God as
Gospel Truth and the Ghost of John Wayne who visited her in the wee hours of
the night and told her that he definitely appeared in CAREFUL PLEASE?” </i>and,
Miss Reid’s belief that John Wayne appears in Careful Please as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“CAREFUL PLEASE craziness”.</i> Saying that
her opinion is nothing more than <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“the
hopes and meanderings of an obsessed Wayne fan with weak film history chops
hoping to make a name for herself” and Let me see if I can get the message out
in a more diplomatic form: ‘She’s Dreamin’, the Duke Ain’t There!’” </i>Mr.
Roberts goes on to make a feeble attempt to support his verbal bullying by
further discrediting Miss Reid by saying: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Now
Ms. Reid is considering the possibility that John Wayne copied his walk from
Lloyd Hamilton? Okay, now we're talking big time clueless Wayne scholarship
here. Has she ever heard of Yakima Canutt?”</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It amazes me that Mr. Roberts is claiming that he is a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“film historian and collector of some reput</i>
[sic]<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">”</i> as well as a researcher
engaged in helping his “buddy Scott Eyeman” (nice name dropping there, Mr.
Roberts) by <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“supplying him with research
material for his new book, which will likely be THE definitive book ever
written on John Wayne.”</i> That Mr. Roberts is a film historian is not
something I can refute. Of course I cannot prove it either since the only
references I can find regarding his role as a film historian come straight from
him. His comment about Yakima Canutt clearly shows his lack of knowledge. Harry
Carey, Jr., a close friend of John Wayne for many years, has repeatedly stated
that it was Paul Fix who taught Wayne how to walk. Other long time friends have
gone on record saying that it was Wayne himself who invented the walk. Others
have said that it was Yakima Canutt who taught Wayne his distinctive walk. In other
words, there are many theories. Mr. Roberts, however, seems to indicate that he
possesses the truth about this. Perhaps (as Mr. Roberts has claimed about Miss
Reid) the ghost of John Wayne visited him in the wee hours and imparted this
special knowledge to him. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mr. Roberts claims to be a collector of some repute. Of
course, ill repute is still repute, and if Mr. Roberts is helping Scott Eyeman
(again we have only Mr. Roberts word on this) to research <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“THE definitive book”</i> on John Wayne, well, after experiencing Mr.
Roberts complete lack of knowledge regarding John Wayne, as well as his
non-existent research skills, both clearly evidenced in the repeated errors and
faulty conclusions put forth in his slew of comments, clearly Mr. Eyeman would
do well to reject anything Mr. Roberts says. Especially if he wants his book to
be definitive. Miss reid, on the other hand, is not just a member of the John
Wayne Fan Club. She is the owner of a massive collection of John Wayne material
(as am I), material I would venture to say that not many people, including Mr.
Roberts, have ever seen. She has been researching John Wayne for many years,
and I for one, value her research and opinions regarding John Wayne. Mr.
Roberts would do well to listen to Miss Reid, however, in doing so Mr. Roberts
would have to admit that he does not know everything. Something that Mr.
Roberts clearly could never admit to.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<br />
Contrary to Mr. Roberts statement that his opinion is “actually an informed
opinion based on close visual inspection of the only surviving original print”
of Careful Please, is simply nothing more than a self-aggrandizing statement.
The simple fact that Mr. Roberts puts forth his opinion (as Miss Reid does),
but does not provide visual evidence of his opinion (as Miss Reid did) shows me
that Mr. Roberts is doing nothing more than spouting words. Mr. Roberts has
always had the opportunity to rebut anything on my website via the contact form
on my website. Yet he has not done so. Why? Because bullies require an audience
and can never go toe-to-toe with someone who is both willing and able to stand
up to them. Instead Mr. Roberts decided to attack Miss Reid behind a closed
door in a forum that does not accept any new registrants, and where Miss Reid
was unable to defend herself publicly. Bully for you Mr. Roberts. What a man
you are. And in case my use of sarcasm escapes you here, let me put this a
little more “diplomatically” to you. You, Mr. Roberts, are a 6’8”, 300+ pound
coward. No more and no less. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you should like to rebut or respond, please feel free to
do so. My website (and it is mine, and not Miss Reid’s) does have a contact
form. Any comments you would like to make will be posted on my website. If you
care to rebut, I invite it. If you care to respond, I invite it. And even if
you would simply like to throw a temper tantrum, rest assured I will post that
as well. You see, Mr. Roberts, I am not a female, your favorite target. And
although I am likely older than you, and I am not 6’8”, and I do not weigh in
excess of 300 pounds, to quote John Wayne, “on my worst day I could beat the
hell out of you.” So, if you have the intestinal fortitude (which I doubt) put
on your big boy pants and go toe-to-toe with me. I welcome it.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The film takes place in 1860, in the town of Lawrence,
Kansas. If the name sounds familiar to history buffs, it should. During the
civil war, Confederate guerilla leader William Clarke Quantrill raided the town
of Lawrence with his band of outlaws, murdering 185 unarmed men and boys, while
looting the town and burning it to the ground. In fact, this film is loosely
based on that very incident. Very loosely based.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">John Wayne plays Texan Bob Seton, who, with his good friend
Doc Grunch (played by Gabby Hayes) arrives in Lawrence looking for customers
for Doc’s dental business. The premise of their partnership is Wayne punching
argumentative potential customers in the mouth, and Doc providing the necessary
dental treatment. While in Lawrence, Wayne sees young Mary McCloud (Claire
Trevor) and decides he is going to marry her. The only problem is the local
school teacher, Will Cantrell, who also has his eye on Mary. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Will is not all that he seems to be, however, and he is the
leader of a local band of guerillas involved in gun running and other crimes.
When Cantrell loses a local election for the position of marshal to Wayne’s
Seton, he drops any pretense of civility and throws all his time and resources
into his guerilla activity. Throw in Marjorie Main as Cantrell’s long suffering
mother, Roy Rogers as Fletch McCloud – Mary’s brother, Porter Hall as Angus
McCloud, their blustering Scottish father, several other memorable characters, and
Yakima Canutt’s exciting stunt direction, and you have a great film full of
action, romance and even a few comedic bits as well.</span></div>

Command</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> is the third on screen pairing of
John Wayne and Claire Trevor in only two years. Their first being Wayne’s
breakthrough film <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Stagecoach</i> (1939),
closely followed by <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Allegheny Uprising</i>
the same year. Following the success of Stagecoach, Republic made the decision
to cash in on its newest star, and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Dark
Command</i> was one of the few “A” films made by the studio, and became the
studios biggest grossing film. Accomplished composer Victor Young produced the wonderful
score for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Dark Command</i>, and was
nominated for an Academy Award for his work, which makes it all the more
surprising that we haven’t seen a recorded soundtrack. Perhaps someday one will
be forthcoming.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<span class="fn">Jordan Krug</span></span> <br />
These photos are from a 1971 contact sheet, most likely to be used as
references for poster or promotional artwork. The photos were taken by
by legendary hollywood photographer Bob Willoughby. His estate sells a
sepia tinted alternate pose here : <a href="http://www.willoughbyphotos.com/work.html?id=33&cat=1">http://www.willoughbyphotos.com/work.html?id=33&cat=1</a><br />
<br />
After the photos is a small video where I strung together all the
different poses on the sheet to very briefly bring the duke back to

<div class="MsoNormal">
There are a plethora of stories and articles floating around
today (and have been for decades) that John Wayne was a phony. That he was
rabidly anti-communist, notoriously racist, a draft dodger, homophobic and hated
horses. Quite frankly, I’m tired of it. Yes, I am a huge fan of John Wayne, and
admittedly biased about him in some respects. But unlike his detractors, I am
not so biased as to overlook reality. Was he perfect? No, but who is? And, the
claims so often spewed forth by his detractors (such as those mentioned above)
are about as untrue as they can be. Now, let’s take a look at the facts.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">John Wayne was
rabidly anti-communist.</b> The fact is, he wasn’t. He was anti-communism, but
that is a far cry from being anti-communist. In other words, he didn’t like the
communist ideology, but he didn’t automatically dislike someone simply because they
were a communist. Back in the 1950’s, during what has since become known as the
“McCarthy era” witch hunts, a promising young actor by the name of Larry Parks
admitted under oath that he had been a member of the communist party. Parks
also stated that he had renounced the communist party, but would not provide
names of anyone he knew that were still members. In spite of his renouncement,
calls to blacklist him rang forth throughout the conservative members of the
Screen Actors Guild. Wayne, who at the time president of the Motion Picture Alliance
for the Preservation of American Ideals, refused to join in. He took the stance
that Larry Parks had renounced the communist party, and showed great courage in
doing so. Wayne said that Parks’ refusal to name names took great courage, and
he refused to call for Parks’ blacklisting. Wayne took a lot of flack for that,
but he never backed down from his stand.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Marguerite Roberts who wrote the screenplay for True Grit
was a blacklisted writer and a communist. When this was revealed to Wayne,
there were fears that he would want her removed from the project. Those fears
proved to be ungrounded. Wayne said she did a fine job, and he supported her
work on True Grit. No, John Wayne was not a rabid anti-communist.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">John Wayne was
racist.</b> This belief comes primarily from a statement he made during a 1971
interview with Playboy magazine when he said, “I believe in white supremacy
until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don't believe in
giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible
people.” But people tend to take this statement out of context, as he also
said, “we can't all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over
to the leadership of blacks.” Which is true, and it is not a racist statement.
He believed in gradual integration, and I think an honest look at just about
any black ghetto will support that view. He believed that blacks had an honest
right to feel resentment toward and to dissent regarding their treatment.
Hardly the view of a racist. He worked with many blacks, including Scatman
Crothers and Roscoe Lee Brown, and got along quite well with them. One should also
take into account that not only did he have black friends (like Sammy Davis
Jr.), but he had no problem in casting blacks in his films (such as James
Watkins, who played J.C. in the film McQ, and Sidney Poitier in one of his
first films and cast by Wayne in a lead role), and was married to three Latin
American women during his life. He did not dislike blacks for the sake of being
black, and he tended to accept people based on their character rather than the
color of their skin. So no, he wasn’t racist. He may have been racially
insensitive from a politically correct standpoint, but he was far from racist. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It has also been surmised that John Wayne hated Native
Americans. This misconception is generally based on a statement that he made
during the same 1971 Playboy interview mentioned above. In that interview,
Wayne said, “I don’t feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from
them. Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of
survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the
Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves.” A simple look at
history will show that this very same sentiment was acted out by Native
Americans themselves. Native American Indian tribes were fighting with one
another long before the “white man” showed up, and it was not all that uncommon
for one tribe to completely uproot another tribe. Take the Dakota Sioux, for
instance. They were not always in South Dakota. Originally they came from North
Central Minnesota. And what happened to the tribes they encountered in the path
of their migration south? Well, they didn’t just pack up and move away, at
least not completely. Many of them were slaughtered by the Sioux, and in some
cases entire villages were wiped out. In other words, John Wayne was absolutely
right in what he said. It was a matter of survival, just as it was practiced by
North American Indian tribes for generations before “the White Man” began
settling America. If he said anything wrong in that statement, it was that “the
Indians were selfishly trying to keep [the land] for themselves,” because North
American Indians had no concept of land ownership, and therefore really had no
land to steal.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">John Wayne was
homophobic.</b> This one actually surprises me a bit, as there are no quotes
from either John Wayne or anyone else that support this. In fact, Rock Hudson,
a known homosexual, co-starred with John Wayne in the film, The Undefeated.
During the filming, Wayne knew of Hudson’s homosexuality, and not only did he
still make the film, but he was friends with Hudson and did not feel that he
should be ostracized for his homosexuality.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">John Wayne was a
draft dodger.</b> To set the record straight, John Wayne did not “dodge the
draft.” In fact, he was classified as “3-A” and he received a deferment due to
his age and his dependents. Granted, he could have appealed the deferment, but
he did not. And it is also important to note that he did not file for a
deferment. It was Herbert Yates, the president of Republic Studios who filed
(repeatedly) for a deferment, and he did not do so on behalf of Wayne. He did
so in order to keep Wayne making pictures at Republic. I would also like to
point out that it is incorrect to say, as some do, that Wayne “stayed behind
and didn’t do his part.” The fact is, that Wayne received orders from the War
Department to provide intelligence reports during his USO tours and visits to
the troops near the front lines in the South Pacific, and he received two
citations for his work during World War Two, one from the “War Agencies of the
Government of the United States” for “Outstanding Service in World War II”; and
the other from Major General William “Wild Bill” Donovan for “Honorably Serving
the United States of America as a Member of The Office of Strategic Services”
in 1945 (The Office of Strategic Services, or OSS, was the forerunner of the
CIA). So, no, John Wayne was not a “draft dodger,” and yes, he did serve his
country during World War Two.</div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">John Wayne hated
horses.</b> After starring in more than 80 westerns, and owning a ranch, and
riding a horse to school as a child, this is another hard to believe myth, and
yet there are those who readily believe it. In fact, it has actually made it
into print, albeit into a rather biased book titled “John Wayne’s America, the
Politics of Celebrity” by Garry Wills, and reiterated by Wills during a PBS
Newshour interview with him by David Gergen. Here’s a snippet:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
DAVID GERGEN: And yet in the end the idea of John Wayne was really a myth.
You say that he hated horses, a man-- <br />
GARRY WILLS: Hated horses. Never rode except on the set, and never rode when
he didn’t have to.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, while it is true that Wayne once told an interviewer
that he did not especially enjoy riding horses, and generally didn’t unless it
was necessary, this does not mean he hated horses. Nor did it mean that he was a
poor horseman as some have suggested. In fact, the reverse is true and there is
ample evidence to support this. Not only can John Wayne be seen riding horses
in his 80+ western films, but he can also be seen riding horses in home movies
taken at his Arizona ranch. John Wayne’s son Patrick once said, ““He was a
terrific horseman. In Big Jake (1971) there is a scene at the beginning when
the characters are introduced. Chris Mitchum rides a motorcycle into the scene
and Dad is on a horse and it rears up and throws him. Later in film there is a
chase and as they are passing by a bar a guy gets thrown out into street. Dad
is riding a horse and the horse gets spooked and goes sideways. Dad stayed with
it and stayed in the saddle, even though it was going sideways for ten feet,
just an amazing display of horsemanship. It was all caught on film, but it had
to be cut because it was inconsistent with the opening scene. A guy who could
ride like that could never be thrown like he was thrown in the opening scene.”</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In addition, although John Wayne was not a “real” cowboy (as
has been pointed out by many), he was not a complete novice when it came to
cowboy work. In an interview with Wayne, he once related, “I was hired on as an
assistant for a George O’Brien western (I was actually hired as an actor but it
was understood I would act as an Assistant – a scrounger, today they would call
them a location manager). One of my jobs was to get 400 head of cattle into Blue Canyon
which was 150 miles from any paved road. A preacher who had a little church on
the Hopi reservation agreed to help me gather them. In gathering those cattle,
we horsebacked into Monument
Valley. … It was during
the making of this picture, in which I was assistant as well as riding in the
posse, that I personally rode through Monument Valley.” The film was 1930’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Lone Star Ranger.</i> [Tim Lilley, The Big
Trail, Vol VI, No 1, June 1989] </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What this proves is, that not only did John
Wayne visit Monument Valley long before John Ford had (thus debunking the myths
that Harry Goulding told Ford about the valley, or that Ford had “discovered”
it), but that he was herding cattle by horseback, and if that isn’t cowboyin’
then I don’t know what is. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So he may not have been a “real” cowboy as far as his chosen
career path, but he was a real cowboy in every sense of the word.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So where do these myths about John Wayne come from? Well,
primarily from two different sources. The first is that they are perpetuated by
ignorant people who have never let the truth of any matter come in the way of perpetuating
a damaging hateful lie.</div>

Since both had worked with John Wayne, I was curious to see if they made mention of him. Both did. Here are the interviews:<br />

</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">CHICAGO – In the days when there
were only three networks and less remote controls, TV stars were fewer and fame
was rarer. <span style="color: black;">Both Hugh O’Brian</span>
on “The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp” (1955) and <span style="color: black;">Sherry Jackson</span> on “Make Room for Daddy“ (1953)
achieved some notoriety in those early days of television. </span><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14pt;"></span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">O’Brian and Jackson appeared at the Hollywood
Celebrities & Memorabilia Show (now called “The Hollywood Show”) in 2011,
and HollywoodChicago.com was there to interview them, along with photographer Joe
Arce, who captured both stars in Exclusive Portraits.</span></div>

As you probably know, Marvin worked on a few John Ford films, and did three films with John Wayne (The Comancheros, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and Donovan's Reef). At any rate, here's the video, and I hope you enjoy it.<br />

Lee Marvin was a remarkable actor, and I have always enjoyed watching his films. Being able to watch him in a film with John Wayne is an added bonus.The New Frontierhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15217395983043236431noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782416249251311862.post-90456875967570361062012-01-19T12:32:00.000-08:002012-01-20T21:56:24.472-08:00Alternative Universe John Wayne Movie PostersCheck out these movie posters! Of course they are not real film posters, but some that were made up by digital artist Peter Stults. They are actual films, but he has placed different actors and actresses in them. Two of the posters he did featured John Wayne. Here they are:<br />

and mother and small brother and I were at Peterson Field in Colorado
Springs. A hot wind blew through that summer, blew until it seemed that
before August broke, all the dust in Kansas would be in Colorado, would
have drifted over the tar-paper barracks and the temporary strip and
stopped only when it hit Pikes Peak. There was not much to do, a summer
like that: there was the day they brought in the first B-29, an event to
remember but scarcely a vacation programme. There was an officers'
club, but no swimming pool; all the officers' club had of interest was
artificial blue rain behind the bar. The rain interested me a good deal,
but I could not spend the summer watching it, and so we went, my
brother and I, to the movies.
</span>
<br />
<div class="body ">
We went three and four afternoons a week, sat on folding chairs in
the darkened hut which served as a theatre, and it was there, that
summer of 1943 while the hot wind blew outside, that I first saw John
Wayne."<br />

However, I came across some photos of John Wayne on the internet, that have been transformed into 3D, and I thought I would share them with you. You will need to wear a pair of 3D glasses to see the 3D effect. Just click on each photo to enlarge it. Enjoy!<br />

I found this video on You Tube and thought I would share it. It really sums up (I think) what John Wayne felt about these subjects, and I have to wonder why more people do not feel this way today. I hope you enjoy it!</div>

and more being added. The latest addition is the New Frontier online store,
known as The New Frontier Trading Post. Not only can you access each of the
stores items individually through the website’s store page, but can also visit
the store itself and browse away to your heart’s content!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Initially, it was planned to have the store strictly on
the New Frontier website, with a shopping cart, and assorted check out
features. Unfortunately, the tools were simply not available to provide the
kind of service we would have liked to see. Therefore, the decision was made to
open the New Frontier Trading Post on the Bonanza online sales site, and give
the Trading Post its own storefront, complete with online chat (when we’re
available), shopping cart, assorted payment options (currently PayPal and Money
Order), the ability to message us, and the ability to not only add more items
as they become available, but also to run special sales and offer limited time
discounts from time to time.</span></div>

John Wayne fans are aware of such John Wayne radio programs as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">She Wore A Yellow Ribbon</i>, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fort Apache</i>, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Stagecoach</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Pittsburgh</i>
(as well as a few more), but not too many are aware that he actually starred in
a weekly radio series titled <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Three Sheets
To The Wind</i>, which aired on NBC from February 15, 1942 through July 5, 1942. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="highlight"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The
thirty-minute weekly show, which ran for 26 episodes, starred John Wayne as
private detective Dan O’Brian, and Helga Moray as British Intelligence agent,
Joan Lockwood. Both Sharon Douglas and Lee Bonnell also appeared in supporting
roles. The show was created by film director Tay Garnett, who had directed
Wayne in the 1940 film <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Seven Sinners</i>
(also starring Marlene Dietrich), who had conceived the story in 1933 while
filming SOS Iceberg in Greenland. Garnett worked on the story over the next few
years, and by 1941 he had developed a film script. </span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="highlight"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Since
Wayne had worked with Garnett during this time (filming <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Seven Sinners</i>), it is likely that Garnett had spoken to him about
the project, and may had even established a tentative agreement with Wayne to
appear in the film <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Three Sheets to the
Wind</i>. In 1941, Wayne and Garnett entered into a written agreement, wherein
Wayne would star in both the film, and a radio series of the same name. Wayne
agreed to appear in the radio series (which would be used as a promotional
device to increase interest in the film) for free, in exchange for ten percent
of the film’s profits, plus his standard fee for free-lance film work. (a
stipulation was made in the agreement that this would hold if the radio show
was sustaining, and if sold commercially, then Wayne’s cut would be five
percent plus his standard radio salary.)</span></span></div>

film version of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Three Sheets to the Wind</i>
was never made, but the radio show was. The story line concerned the luxury
steam liner <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Empress</i> as it sailed on a
180-day cruise from its home port of Southhampton, England. Unfortunately,
almost the entire radio series has been lost, with only the first half of the
first episode still extant. That brief 15 minutes, however, reveals the mystery
and drama that likely permeated the entire the 26 week run. </span></span></div>

Each of the murders seems to be somehow linked to a fabled
(and possibly cursed) black diamond owned by the Sultan mentioned in the title.
British Intelligence Agent Joan Lockwood is assigned to the case, but soon
finds that American detective Dan O’Brien (posing as a drunken tourist) is also
investigating the mystery as well.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Although Heritage Auctions has completed their auction of
the Personal Property of John Wayne, there are still some more JW treasures to
be had through Heritage. A search of their website produced several great items
currently up for auction, including the fringe leather jacket John Wayne wore
in The Alamo! Although it is expected to bring in excess of $20,000, the
current bid is $12,000. Still a bit too rich for my blood, but perhaps there
are some fans out there who can handle it! Good luck to those who can!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Also up for bid are a lot of nine original lobby cards
(current bid is only $6!), a Mexican soldier uniform and flag from The Alamo
(buy it now price of only $750!), a suit John Wayne wore in the 1942 film
Pittsburgh, several coffee mugs (you know the ones John Wayne gave out on his
film sets), and my favorite, the leather vest he wore in Rio Bravo (current bid
is $4,250 – why can’t I win the lottery!)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
