I think his movie that grabbed me the most was The Alamo, maybe because he sunk so much of his personal fortune into it, or maybe because it contained the characters of Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie, and how they died. But ANY John Wayne movie is a good one, simply because it has John Wayne. I love True Grit and your review, Susan, because of the connection you have Nancy Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252067177396467839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-90316243573032774792015-07-31T09:56:02.555-05:002015-07-31T09:56:02.555-05:00I had no idea that they were building a U.S. Marsh...I had no idea that they were building a U.S. Marshalls museum in Fort Smith, Arkansas.

As you said, who doesn't love John Wayne, and "Baby Sister" for that matter. I still laugh over that ridiculously big gun for such a little woman that she carried!
