Rating: - CLASSIC WESTERN STARRING THE DUKE!
This entertaining western starring the "Duke" in his later years won him an Oscar. A great film made when stars were stars and they could do no wrong. This film is fun, well paced and holds up really well. I have the older collector's edition from 2000 and the print is crystal clear! The DVD has some extras, but I'm sure the newer release has some added goodies.
Rating: - True Grit
There was a problem ordering this DVD. I ordered duplicates and had to return one. Then the one I kept had serious flaws, but the vendor sent me a replacement that was in excellent condition so I am quite satisfied
Rating: - Classic John Wayne Western

Back in 1970, when John Wayne got the Academy Award over Dustin Hoffman, I thought an injustice had been done. I was wrong. The Oscar is awarded for accomplishment. Sometimes it's purely for acting but sometimes other elements are taken into consideration. The Academy made the right call. The history of American ... Read More
