It's funny, he's probably the only classic actor who's voice everyone would recognize, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rohanaka Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 Well speaking only for my little corner of the world... the KIDLING sure knows him when she hears him. The other day when Angel and the Badman came on... she was back in her bedroom playing... and the minute she heard the Duke's voice... she came a runnin'. And while she was still in the hall.. without ever seeing the screen... her little voice pipes up.... "HEY!!! Are we watching JOHN WAYNE tonight???" Watta kid!!!

JackFavell Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks. You are way too kind. I think, as I recall, it's right before they go into the wagon where Mildred Natwick tells them to take care of her baby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohanaka Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 That's our kidling HA... she is the free entertainment around our house. :-) And PS... she has a very "black and white" view of good and bad... (gee...Mr. Grey... I don't know where she gets that...ha) She HATED when I told her the name of the movie... Her: "Who's the bad man?" Me: "John Wayne." Her: "No.. I thought John Wayne is the good man. He's not bad" (ha... we had this same sort of chat when Three Godfathers was on too) Me: "No... he's not REALLY a bad man. He's just bad for a while... but he will start being good soon." Her: "Well who's the angel?" Me: "That lady in the long dress w/ the dark hair" Her: "Well THAT is not an angel dress" Me: "Well... she's not a REAL angel... they just call her that because she is good." Her: "Well... they should call it "The Good Woman and the Bad Man" then. Only what will they call him when he is not bad any more?" Me: "They will call him Quirt... that is his name in the movie.. Quirt Evans" Her: "Now THAT is a silly name.... they should not call him QUIRT. Why do they call him Quirt?" Me: "Why do I call you Hannah?" Her: "Because THAT is my name" (said w/ her little eyes rolling) Me: "So why DO they call him Quirt then?" Her: "Yeah... but QUIRT is a lot sillier name than Hannah" Me: "Not if you are John Wayne..." Her: "He should NOT be a bad man. He needs to be nice..." And so it went... Ha.

rohanaka Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 wait till she uses your own arguments against you UGH!! We're already getting there... don't remind me.. ha. And... it is REALLY awful since she has learned to tell time. She knows the difference between a second and a minute... so her new thing lately is that if I tell her I will do such and such for her in a "minute" she will say something (with her smart little mouth) like.... "But mom.. can you do it in a SECOND... that is faster than a minute... because a minute is SIXTY seconds." Ha... Sometimes she is too smart for her own good. Usually after something like that, I have to reply... "Want to see how long a second can REALLY last... while you are sitting on your bed??" (It's hard to be six and try to rule the world... ha. ) :-) PS... April.. Now THAT would be a reality show worth watching!! HA! And I could just about guarantee that their movie reviews would be better than all the other ones you see on tv nowdays for sure.... ha.

rohanaka Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Hi folks.. don't want to interupt... just wanted to say a quick thanks for the reminders for all the Ford stuff tonight. I am not able to ramble just now... but wanted to say I appreciate it all very much. I will chat w/ you all later. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
movieman1957 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 >How about The Conqueror? I always put that one in the "What Was I Thinking?" category along with "The Barbarian and the Geisha." If you have never seen any of them and you have a slow day catch one or tow of those old "B" westerns from Republic. Wayne even plays "Singin' Sandy" in a couple of them. (You catch the work where you can.) I like your list. Other performances to look for might be Reap The Wild Wind - big deMille adventure. A Lady Takes Chance - a nice little comedy with Jean Arthur. Trouble Along The Way. The Long Voyage Home - he plays a Swedish sailor in a small part. Message was edited by: movieman1957 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
