Wayne was a devout Patriot, and a product of that era of Political Climate.. Sinatra was a die hard Liberal, and friend of Mob Bosses across the US. Wayne held to his principles, not out of malice, but simply he loved this Country, and didnt see himself as being anything but that..
Wayne supported our Armed Forces, and believed in what the US was doing..
was he RIGHT in all of this > ? no.. and Lennons criticism of Wayne was simply Lennon being Lennon. he isnt the best role model to be sure, great artist, absolutely, but, not exactly a pillar of society either.
I love Waynes movies, and believe he simply did what he thought was best, to support the US, its Armed Forces, and its leaders.. Hollywood leaned hard left then, it leans much harder left now..
I still applaud Waynes life and films.. its easy to cast aspersions on people long gone, from a time when things had not yet changed perceptions of people as they have now, 50-60 yrs later.
No thanks
@@RodgerRamjet I’m with you! Totally agree

"Devout Patriot" or Hypocritical FakeTriot?
Bet on the latter.
No huac supporter was a Patriot;
- Not a _match_ !
Clark Gable not taking the Davey Crockett role and his John Wayne criticism is most surprising
You can judge a man by his enemies. Josef Stalin planned on having John Wayne assassinated. (Later, Soviet leader Nikkita Khruschev tore up the order.) Spike Lee apparently hated John Wayne as well. I would say that makes me respect John Wayne even more.
"The Alamo" is one of my favorite John Wayne movies. Along with "Green Beret," "Fort Apache," "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon," and "The Horse Soldiers."
Our favorites too, you've got taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
@@FactsVerse Whether or not the alleged things that John Wayne may have said or not shouldn't minimize that type of Actor that he was. It take exception that many of his critics (notably Spike Lee) never met him. In regards to your question about the type of movies that I like, I very much love Sci-Fi and Docudramas. One of my favorite Docudramas is "The Winds of War" and "War and Remembrance." I also like the movie, "The Enemy Below."
The cowboys ,the shootist,
True grit, and many more
Alamo is so underrated.
The Green Berets is a terrible movie , lol.
Never ever mix politics with business; it's a bad combination!
In today's screwed up world, politics is more important than anything.
just like politics and religion
Best advice.
roger that !!!
@@dalehammond1749 if you mix poliitics and religion you get the athiest donald trump
I understand that Robert Ryan (a staunch Democrat) and Duke had more than a few dust-ups over politics on the sets of the movies in which they were co-stars. Kirk Douglas was another co-star that didn't see eye to eye with him on political matters. Doubtful their differences resulted in "hate" in either case.
They didn't. Ryan was a very private and quiet man. Ernest Borgnine made a few movies with him and admired him but said he was tough to get to know. He was a big liberal and Wayne a big conservative. They may or may not have had an issue or two but they co-starred in 2 movies. Kirk Douglas and Wayne enjoyed a very friendly relationship but were not close friends. That said, Kirk did send a nice telegram to Wayne when he went back in the hospital around 1978 or so. They respected each other and did have very good chemistry in their 3 films.
Yep, this was back in the day when people got along despite their differences.
Roscoe Brown said Wayne would talk to you about your differences, but he respected peoples opinions. Same with Rock Hudson, who thought Wayne was going to get him fired off the Undefeated. All Wayne did was ask him if he was a good chess player. Most say Wayne was just a figure head for the anti-communism movement in Hollywood…the real leader was Ward Bond.
How ironic that John Lennon believed Wayne's movies were violent I guess his memory slipped when he was physically abusive to some women in his life. Hypocrite!
Has there ever been a person alive or dead that isn't full of hypocritical impulses? I revere both Wayne & Lennon for their creative work but pity anyone who is looking for pious nobility in celebrities or non celebrities...
Then Lennon dies not long after being hateful to Wayne…reaping and sowing. Lennon was a communist and thick headed. We lost America to the “peace” no they didn’t have peace those hippies were violent and hateful! Pretty much 1967 onward has been the downward spiral of America and Lennon being a founding woker
I agree that Lennon was a communist. He came across as a know it all,and a mean person. HUGE HYPOCRITE too.@@michaelreading7509

It's the same principle of the Teachings of Jesus and or his followers and every truly holy ,enlightened Teacher who reminds us we're all Imperfect, Sinners and make mistakes, errors in Judgment. No one is a Perfect Saint . We all have faults and weaknesses, sensitivities, whether we want to acknowledge or admire it or not !!! Imperfections exist in us all. Well said Philip halpenny ✌✊🙏🙏
The multimillionaire John Lennon didn't give any money to help the antiwar effort. He and Yoko decided to stay in bed for peace.
So let me get this right - Katharine Hepburn and Frank Sinatra both had problems with Wayne over politics in the 1950s, but came to mutual respect and affection later. Spike Lee and John Lennon - who can barely have known the man - didn’t like what (little) they knew of him. And Clark Gable didn’t want to play Davy Crockett because it was Wayne’s directorial debut. Hardly “hated John Wayne” is it? And while Wayne might be controversial- surely no one disagrees he was a fine actor in his genre and willing to take on controversial roles - like Ethan Edwards in the Searchers.
Anyone can know Wayne through his outspoken vile racism. He openly stated black people don’t deserve rights. They didn’t have to know him personally to find that disgusting.
AMERICA,,,right or Wong,,,,LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT,,,,,
Spike is a seasoned student of films and was speaking of how Native Americans were depicted in his films. Of course he knew. Deeply
Spike Lee says John Wayne depicted native Americans as savages, but, did spike Lee ever listen to the closing lines of John Wayne? He always said, their losing their way of life, and it's a good way. People always hear what they wanna hear. John Wayne may have had haters, but I for one will always revere John Wayne. For his acting, and his strength of character. They don't make'em like that anymore. 🌹
Well, if John didn't leave that Playboy interview... But we are all humans. Faulted and flawed. The rest however are pompous, hypocritical assholes.
If I like someone's movies I don't really want to know anything about them personally. Most of them will disappoint you. I loved Jerry Lewis comedies but I can't even watch them now because of what was revealed about him. He was a terrible man. I think most celebrities were and are failures as people.
That's true yes, but I'm not talking personal lives in my dislike of John Wayne he chose to make it public, esspecially when he had to be restrained by 4 plus security when he tried to physically abuse Sacheen Littlefeather at the 1973 academy awards,this was not a one of. My comments of him being a state made star where true he was asked probably even paid to spy on artists he worked with. He was just a turkey hateful man. Most artists not celebrities, big difference tend to have sensible politics weather they lean left or right and most high level artists would lean left that is just statistically correct. Then you get Muppets like Wayne and Hestern hateful people who let the side down. The one that supprised me recently was not for necessarily for there political lean(was still a surprise) but his active support of Trump means i cant watch Frasier any more with out feeling sick 🤢.......
He was my hero when I was a little boy. He's been a role model for me ever since.
I love him. He's why I'm an actor
You're a true fan. Thank you for sharing your life story. Which film of John appealed to you the most?
We’re you mad at Bruce Dern when he shot him in the back too!
@@100hooker Bruce Dern gets some creepy roles, but he's good. I was mad at him for shooting my hero though!

John Wayne wasn't a "celebrity." He was a star.
AMEN BRO !!!
A Icon
He was a racist.
He was a complete racist
A legend
I'd say that it was beneficial for Sinatra NOT to have gotten in a "physical altercation" with The Duke! As it is, he lived a long, healthy life for years after what would have been a life-threatening situation!
The Duke would have stopped his little Dago ass
@@bayou2570 Precisely!
Lee Marvin once told a story about him and the Duke drinking and arguing about how hard John could punch, they were in a hotel room during the filming of a movie and Lee said he went in the bathroom closed the door and stood in front of the door just inches away while John punched the the door! John put his fist through the door and when he opened the door Lee was on the floor out cold! The Rat Pack would have been minus 1 Rat!
Frank had 'friends' though
@@michaelmarron8441 Doesn't matter, Frank wasn't a "made" guy so his friends wouldn't do anything!
Reviled by Spike Lee? Disliked by John Lennon? I wouldn't worry too much about that.......... I thought this might be something to take seriously.
I’m sure there was and is a lot of jealousy as far as celebrities goes!
We absolutely agree! Thank you for your watching our video. Be on the lookout for the next one!
You can say that again!
My folks loved all of his movies including his westerns.Mama called him a man’s man.I loved his movie The Quiet Man.
Thank you for sharing this! We're happy you guys loved John. Be safe and have a great day 💕
VIETNAM WAR FAN ARE YOU ? BCAUSE MARRION MORRISON WAS A FAN OF DIEING IN VIETNAM >>. FOR NOTHING
HE HID OUT IN MEXICO FOR ALL OF WW II
BUT HE WAS A WAR HAWK /CHICKEN COWARD
Spike who?
Exactly!
It’s easy to talk about people when they are dead and can not defend themselves
Mr. Wayne was a Silver Screen Icon. Again his views, political beliefs may be adverse, diverse, discriminate but he, like all Americans are protected by the Constitution. The right to choose, believe, speak no matter how abrupt or misunderstood!
He is still one of America great Performer! And a American hero!
I loved John Wayne great actor king of the cowboys there's gonna be haters out there that hate on him but loved him and loved his movies a he was great

Draft dodger in WW2
@@stevecampbell6294 It is speculated that John Wayne did not serve in World War II because he was classified as “3-A” when he did his part in registering with Selective Service. “3-A” is one of the classifications that allowed the registrant to defer service. Its official name is “Hardship Deferment.” It applies to registrants whose commitment to service can burden (cause hardship for) their families. John Wayne was considered one of these "3-A" registrants because he had a wife and 4 kids to provide for. "2-A” is another classification with grounds for deferment. Republic Pictures, when Wayne was eligible to enlist, filed a “2-A” deferment to keep him in their studio. After his “Stagecoach” role, Wayne was the only A-list actor at Republic Pictures. So, it was no surprise that they did not want to ‘“lose” him to the war. As an actor, Wayne qualified as a “2-A” registrant in a non-agricultural occupation. Displaced paperwork is another possible reason why John Wayne did not serve in World War II. It was believed that the required papers for his enlistment were processed but mistakenly sent to his ex-wife’s house and not his. Thus, he never knew about it. Some sources claimed that she neglected it, while some contended that she withheld it intentionally because she and the children were still relying on Wayne’s star power to live comfortably.
For me the best western figure of all time was James Arness as Matt Dillon or Ward Bond on wagon train. Did anyone know in real life Ward Bond and John Wayne was hunting and Wayne accidentally shot bond in the butt with a shotgun he borrowed from bond. LOL. When Bond died he left the shotgun to Wayne.
Orson Welles said the people whose politics he disagreed with fervently, like Ward Bond or Duke Wayne, had the best sense of humour...
@@philiphalpenny3783
And Orson Welles is reported to have called JW "the nicest man he'd had ever met in Hollywood"! 😊
@@gunterangel Welles said he had the best manners of anyone he met in Hollywood...he loved everything about John Wayne...except his politics!
Ward Bond was an Nazi admirer. After the war Frank Sinatra took a photo of himself urinating at Hitler's bunker and send it to Bond.
Did you know that John Wayne declined the offer to play Matt Dillon and recommended James Arness for the part?
Great video
Duke was an overall good man with good intentions, who was raised in a wholesome conservative midwest home with conservative ideals. He was in his prime in the 1930s and followed suit with the interests of our country at a time when international tensions were tight and Nazi Germany was spreading propaganda like a wildfire. If John Wayne had been born in the 50s, his rhetoric would have been a lot different. His messages to America had good intentions and his movies tell fun stories. I'm a centrist Democrat who leans very slightly left of moderate. I believe in a socially organized system of taking care of those less fortunate with foundations that provide aid as nothing more than a starter kit toward self sustained living. If they fumble and fall off track they get one more chance, after that, figure it out yourself. When it comes to race, I'm color blind. When it comes to social injustice and racial persecution, I am appalled. Grow up and learn acceptance. You would be amazed at who could become your best friend.
Since when is "speaking your mind" a bad thing?? Everyone has that right If people didn't like what Wayne had to say, oh well Then ignore it & walk away
You're absolutely correct!
Spike Lee’s and John Lennon’s critique was unwarranted as Wayne neither wrote, produced or directed any of the westerns (with the exception of The Alamo) that he stared in. He was merely the paint that others placed on a canvas.
Who really gives a damn for the opinion of these two? One racist and the other a whacked out druggy.
No can of Spike Lee by any means. I agree our past shouldn't be tossed out simply because attitudes change - I wish more could recall this simple lesson.
He did give an interview in Playboy which let his ideas about Native Americans out in the open.
While true, if you relisten to the video, Lee’s critique was about the body of Wayne’s work, not the Playboy interview
@@wunderkind-7724 Replying to the overall criticism of John Wayne ideation - in the body of his work.
Actually did not like him as an actor and was not applying literary or artistic criticism but am critical about his attitudes on the subjects of his work which were appalling. ie Birth of a Nation so applauded and was shown in the Wilson White House. That movie was so disgustingly racist, would turn one's stomach. Not only said something about the film maker but also about Woodrow Wilson. (it was not a commentary on racism it was racist) Felt like the KKK made it and everybody cheered.
What about Apache Indian girl name Little Feather in the early 1970s, she actually spoke about how American Indians are mistreated in the Hollywood movies. Some of them actually cheered her and others booed her but John Wayne wanted to punch her so security guards had to throw him out.
John Wayne was a great actor that I still enjoying watching. If Spike Lee and John Lennon do not care for him, means nothing to me.
@davidhodges1483 - Well, at least NOT EVERYONE liked nor cared for John Wayne anyway because he was a kind of negative force in America as well!
I'm sure your opinion doesn't mean anything to them either. Not everybody just ignores known bigotry.
@@monilaninetynine3811- I hope you were referring to David Hodges and not myself.
Every decent human hated him Sinatra, Marlon Brando, James Dean, Paul Newman, he was a nasty nasty man.
🥃👴🏻 YOURE WRONG JOHN WAYNE WAS THE WORST ACTOR IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD 🌍.
Mr. Fact Check says: Hepburn didn't turn down a role in a John Wayne film. The film in question was 1953's "Hondo." The female role in the script her agent read was small, small enough that he didn't bother mentioning it to Hepburn. Ironically, the role was eventually expanded and offered to Geraldine Fitzgerald. She accepted the part. It established her reputation in the film industry.
I'd like more, but we're burning daylight, pilgrim. 🤠
Geraldine Page, you mean. Fabulous actress...
I addition, I have never seen or read anything about Katharine Hepburn disliking John Wayne's behavior on the set of the movie they made together. Both actors objected to the directing and voiced their opinions loud and clear. Although I like the movie, I have to agree that the directing left it a flawed film. Wayne and Hepburn with their combined, maybe 100 years in the movie business were right.
i never heard of Geraldine Fitzgerald, and i was a movie fan back in the days when it was the biggest form of entertainment for a long time. i don't think that movie is that big either, Hondo? i was a little kid and my mom restricted me from seeing a lot of movies, but i don't even remember hearing of that one.
@@philiphalpenny3783 Geraldine Page was famous.
Stalin couldn’t stand him and Mao avoided Wayne
I heard that even Abraham Lincoln didn't care for him!
Julius Caesar refused to be in the same room as him.
Stallone itself is shock
The celebrities who supposedly "hated" John Wayne really didn't hate him, they just disliked some of his behavior or some of the characters he played. Later on some of them did a 180.

We're a big fan too! Thanks for sharing. Which of John's roles appealed to you the most?
Draft dodger in WW2 ...he made millions in movies while his fellow brave actors went to fight for their country.
The best and quickest way to know if a person is good or not, is ask them their thoughts on John Wayne. If they speak negative about him, get away from them as far and as quick as you can. Duke was, is and always will be a national treasure! If more kids grew up on him, like alot of us did, this country would have no crime, and kids would still be saying yes sir and yes maam. They wouldnt be wondering what gender they are either!
Loved the Alamo.
Katherine Hepburn “had grown to respect him”…. i.e. - was presently unemployed, wanted a paycheck and exposure to remain relevant.
I have mixed feelings about John Wayne which I'll keep private. As for John Lennon, he was IMHO sadly mistaken. John Wayne was a chain smoker, a heavy drinker, and did not have the healthiest diet. Also in the film industry, you work sporadic and long hours which affects people differently. It has been suggested that when John Wayne was filming in the 1950s and 1960s that while on location in the Mountain West radiation from nuclear explosions may have harmed him.
I recently read somewhere that many if not all the actors, and crew that were shooting near those Mountain West nuclear tests died of cancer.
It's known that John Wayne had Lung Cancer and was a heavy Smoker and when the Doctor told him he needed to have a part of his lung Removed and to stop Smoking or he'll probably die from the Lung Cancer, he didn't listen and kept Smoking cigarettes !!! So i seriously doubt it was from Radiation at a filming sight . Maybe if he listened to the Doctor's warnings he would have lived much longer. Sad,People got so addicted to Smoking Cigarettes and couldn't stop.
I’m nearly certain he was joking. Lennon had a morbid sense of humor.
@@AcesAndNates that he did
Wayne was also a racist. Looked down on Indigenous people and Black people.
Richard Widmark too hated John Wayne. He in fact had an on set feud with him during the filming of the Alamo.
John Wayne was a good actor who accomplished a lot successful movies. The Duke is a True Hero. I love his work. Like him or not, He was always straight to point when he talk. Nothing but Respect for John!
Beautiful words, thank you for your message for John Wayne! Be safe and have a great day 💗
Mr. Johnson for true heroes who also made movies I ask you to consider Jimmy Stewart and Audie Murphy. Stewart served during WWII in the Army Air Corps. Flying 20 combat missions over Germany. He served with distinction and received several medals. I don't feel the need to say anything about Murphy. Our country's most decorated soldier.
@@manuelvalenzuela5729, He wanted to join the military but he was too old to enlist. How would feel when all the Hollywood stars were enlisting and you were left out back then? So he did his part as an actor entertaining the troops with movies, and live performances, visiting the wounded, and radio bits. He did his part and is a homefront hero.
@@spokanetomcat1 John Wayne was not too old to enlist or be drafted into the military. He asked for and received a 3A draft deferment. Men who were too old to enlist or be drafted into military service did not need to ask for a 3A draft deferment. Because they were too old to enlist or be drafted. An interesting side note. At a later date Mr. Wayne was reclassified as 1A. Meaning he was fit for military service.
@@manuelvalenzuela5729 My grandfather was the same age as he and he also worked in Hollywood. True, but still he was drafted but was released because he was too old for service. One more thing I forgot to mention, His football injury also kept him out of service. Another item, As the war progressed and men were getting less and less, they were lowing their standards too. Why he was classified as 1A with a major injury and was inactive reserve. They were pulling people out of prison filling the roles they needed for the war.
It would be devastating for John Lennon and spike lee not to like you
I hope thats sarcasm.
Ones dead and the other is a racist. I really wouldn't care.
Public Enemy said it best! If you don’t know, Google it. Chuck D spoke about him and Elvis.
I love to see the trash talking, backstabbing & arrogance of those that LOVE TO HATE the Man himself ! The Duke - a man that just did what he did in the same way .... never an unkind word from those that KNEW HIM, WORKED with Him and were professionals who saw what he was Personally and KNEW HE SPOKE HIS MIND, Loved America, would not tolerate those that put it down, ducked out of supporting it and said so often ... I loved that about him. As a fan - I never met Him but, saw all his movies and own DVDs with his work .... John Houston, Maureen O'Hara & many loved working with him. Talk is cheap.... so are those that smear a man AFTER ALL THIS TIME makes it worse than those BACK IN THE DAY .... this "Grandson" has no knowledge of what went on .... just running his mouth. Sad. jj
One can imagine that not many people care much about what Spike Lee thinks on any subject.
Lee plays the race card as often as he can.
Amen!
@FEARTHEEER1 - Well, at least Spike Lee has every right to express himself about lowlife individuals like John Wayne anyway! After all, Wayne was a deeply flawed guy!

I always kind of liked John Wayne films and I don't find him offensive, however my late father who was in WW2 and Korea and won some kinda metals. He hated John Wayne said he was a fake that promoted what he never would had balls to do, such as serve on a war front. I however just see him as a decent actor, who had some human flaws as we all do in someones opinion.

Take a pick! Which would you rather have on your side, someone like John Wayne who supported the military or someone like "Hanoi Jane Fonda" who went to visit Viet Nam prisoners and when they tried to slip info. to her to take back home, she went straight to their captors and gave them the info she had just received. I will not watch ANYTHING involving Jane Fonda just on that one principle.
@@rolandemartin854 I agree but I on the same principal have to add numerous peoples, as I considered it a war crime to send those men in the first place. Living with a father scarred psychologically by war, realizing that we live in a empire that is constantly involved in war crimes from it's founding I wont even vote. Cause I know and expect each person is going to do war crimes for empire. I wouldn't have done what Jane Fonda did that was evil to go in the first place,. Now I'm not going to on the same principle salute a flag of or praise this empire, seeing no plausible denial as it's murdered looted and betrayed humanity in the score of millions if not billions of souls men women and children. In closing I only ask is your condemnation and moral indignation consistent or is it as with it is most Americans, selective unequal and blinded by nationalistic tendencies which refuse to inspect itself?
Huge Duke fan, Huge Chairman of the Board fan. RIP to them both.
John was a true patriot! We need him today. Sadly, the Commies have taken over just about all areas of our great country. Of course John Lennon hated Wayne- he was a threat to Lennon’s Commy beliefs. God bless John Wayne and all he stood for!👍🇺🇸❤️
John Lennon was kind of a hipocrit for hated the Duke. He was mean to his wife and son. I love both John's, but Lennon wasn't a peaceful person.
John Lennon was a terrible man. A hypocrite.
I love good movies and good music but I would not take any advice on anything just because they are entertainers.
Since I was a child, I never liked John Wayne. For me, he was always a bully taking advantage of his weight and size. Not a nice guy.
Floo Lo Tu, star of Feeble Floo Saves the Day a big TV hit in Burma couldn’t stand him
I wonder how was the relationship if any to big star from the 60's like Charles Bronson, Clint Eastwood and Elvis Presley. I've heard some rumors that I would like to verify.
You need to look at the time that he grew up. Do we get rid of our history because we disagree with it. I have always been a John Wayne fan and always will be
Wasn't a fan of his movies namely western but I still have much respect for the man. John Wayne did say stuff that would be pretty controversial these days. I don't think he was a racist. As you said he was a product of the times he grew up in. Problem today is that people like Spike Lee who bash John Wayne do so unfairly because the man is now dead and can't defend himself and Spike Lee likely never met John Wayne when he was aliive. Secondly we're currently living in a time where people look for things and words to get offended about.
@@oldgordo61 John Wayne always married women of Spanish ancestry; so I don't think he was a racist!
Very good points. Unfortunately, too many members of the younger crowd like to judge people and events of the past by today's notions of good and bad, and right and wrong.
Good for you… I hate the fool

Actually Hepburn changed her opinion while filming Rooster Cogburn and said she was actually surprised at how accommodating and friendly he was but never let the truth get in the way of your narrative
i am down with that !!!!
John Wayne was such a movie star he completely avoiding serving during the second world war afraid he'd lose his career. Even John Ford called him "The world's biggest pussy". Not Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart, or Audy Murphy who all were almost killed serving their country.
Real smart educated comment. None of those men were even married, much less had 4 kids! Stupid, apples to oranges.
I would consider it an honor to be unliked by this list of people.
different era so there you are. i'm 74 and always have enjoyed the duke's work. looking at todays' hollywood junk with women always being the hero and never wrong.....i miss wayne.
True....Let's face it.
Few of Hollywood's "stars" today have an original thought in their tiny minds....it's all a facade.... pretending to be a leftist and somehow in tune with the community at large...mostly millennials and wokists....who are merely sheep trying to emulate their heroes.... the lemmings.
LOL. You mean you miss those good old days of chauvinism and misogyny!
He was a draft dodger shit bag
Crappy old era lol 😂 keep your idiotic John Wayne . He would never get an Oscar in todays time with that subpar acting he had
@@fifthbusiness1678 when you use labels towards people you cheapen yourself.
As I've told, I believe it is on Wikipedia, that the Duke was rejected from unlisting because of a Football injury in College where he and Ward Bond played!? The Duke was a Man's Man!
Let me correct myself, it was the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Spike Who😂
John Wayne was a Patriotic American. He did not brook any nonsense. He was eager to bring along at least a dozen other classic actors and film workers. He made sure they got work because they had helped make his career.
🙄
Christine, oh you all soooooo Goddamn tiresome fawning and wrapping your ass up the American flag....so infested with stars and stripes that you shit red white and blue.....most people l know have little respect for hateful, sexist, racist old white people who think there better than others just because they are White!!!!! And your patriotism want me to goddamn thing when you're dead and gone....
I like his movies "True Grit" but he did say some very questionable things about Native American and even blacks. No l do not hate him but l wonder why he said the things he said........
Thank you for sharing your favorite John Wayne movie! Which film comes in at second place?
The Cowboys, Rio Bravo that it.
He was human and he was biased; I enjoyed his movies and also realized he was a decent human being!
Because he was a filthy racist! F that fool!!
I'm willing to grant that Wayne suffered the same prejudices common at the time among most. Not many film stars, or producers had positive outlook on Native Americans during most of his career.
Spike Lee couldn't make a pimple on John's rear.
I read this in 2004
Wayne, John. Conservative; sometimes showed a refreshingly modest outlook & sense of humor, though. Alcoholic. Reported crossdresser. Had a weak spot for Latinas. Racist. Draft dodger during WW2. Got fooled by Christine Jorgensen (look it up, kids), hit on her, and nearly went on a date with her. Linked with Joan Crawford, Marlene Dietrich, Paulette Goddard, and Carmen Miranda.
I lost track of the number of stupid, ignorant comments you made. "Reported crossdresser", do you have first hand knowledge of that? Draft dodger? BS, got a deferment since he was married with 4 kids. Alcoholic? Heavy drinker, zero evidence he was an alcoholic. Kirk Douglas said he was always first on the set, last to leave. Amazing how much BS one person can spew.
John Wayne is an American legend!
My favorite John Wayne movie is the searchers with Natalie Wood. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
We absolutely agree! Thank you for your watching our video. Be on the lookout for the next one!
He was an actor.they aren't heroes....
Not to me he's not screw him!
Indeed he is. It's a bit late for them trying to cancel him now. Lol
Because he's a true legend and a real man
We agree! Thank you for your watching our video. What is your favorite John Wayne movie?
No he was racist
@@celticmist14 no he wasn't
Almost a G.I.Joe advertissement quote...lol...these americans...
real men are not misogynists or people who claim special status to avoid going to WWII or have despicable views about other cultures - Native Americans are selfish cause they did not want to give up their land to the invaders, and portraying said cultures as savages, while the Native Americans were savagely slaughtered - don't call that a "real man".
John wayne rules!!!
"Hey everybody. Celebrities who hated John Wayne"!...."See, nobody cares".
And, I'd like to add this.
If Frank Sinatra hated him so much, then why did he attend a birthday party in the Dukes honour?
John Wayne became a living legend! And remains "legendary" I have read quite a few books about John Wayne and he was a real stand up guy and a real decent human being. Most who actually knew him loved him.
Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. Which film of John appealed to you the most?
John Wayne died in 1979. He can't be a "living legend" for anyone as you phrased it.
He would be way past 100 now.
@@starmnsixty1209 Thank you for pointing that out lol. I redid my comment correctly.
@@FactsVerse Oh there's more than one "The Searchers" "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" "Rio Bravo" "True Grit" Hard to pick just one. And Native Americans were always portrayed with dignity in most of John Wayne's cowboy movies.
@Frederick Wells One that comes to mind is "Fort Apache" and there was more than one and what I actually said was that Native Americans were treated with dignity and respect in his movies and they were.
Mr. Wayne donated all his ranch in my home town to the local Navajos so they had more room to expand.
Fun stuff, thank you for sharing this info about John. He's really a good man ❤
John Wayne ought to be good at acting; he played the same person throughout his film career. Spike Lee: "She's Gotta Have It ". People who live in glass houses....
Wayne, who was called Duke, made some classic movies with John Ford and Howard Hawks and others. Ford's movies usually treated indians with respect. He was very aware of their tragic destiny. Wayne was a better actor than he was usually given credit for, but I don't think his views on politics, religion etc were worth bothering about one way or the other.
Interesting, thank you so much for sharing this information and for watching our video. Be on the lookout for the next one 💕
The DESTINY of the First NATIONS is secure, it's their HISTORY that involves TRAGEDY.
John Ford and Howard Hawks were great directors and also portrayed macho characters on screen; nothing wrong with that!
@@petergreen5337 In his westerns Ford was cocerned with historical destiny and he hd a tragic imagination. In movies such as Fort Apache and Cheyenne Autumn all his sympathy was with the native Americans.
This list of people gives me motivation to like John Wayne all the more 😁
I think the most telling thing about John Wayne as a human is this.
The man skipped out on possibly the most justified war in the past 100 years while being a war hawk for the most pointless wars like Vietnam. Dude was a beta cuck.
I love John Lennon's music as a solo artist and of course with the Beatles. Like all fans I was devastated when he was killed. But politically he was naive. But John wanted a world full of love and peace who can fault him for that? Unfortunately that can't and won't be achieved by Imagining it. We will not see that until Christ returns for we humans are flawed and imperfect in our nature. I respect and love John Wayne and think he was certainly more right than wrong on most issues. Great movies and great music I celebrate both men for that!
I had know idea that spike lee and Clark gable hated john Wayne
Glad to know that you learned something new about Spike and Clark. Which film of John is the most appealing to you?
Love John Wayne! And all of those actors!
You hate or love John Wayne! He is the epitome of male masculinity! John Wayne and Charles Bronson are the true masculine men of Classical Hollywood! Two of the most of masculine men ! Not Charlton Heston, not James Stewart, not Gregory peck, not frank sinatra, not Vincent price, not Robert Ryan and the list goes on!!!!!!! John Wayne and Charles Bronson at the top!
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
Clint. You forgot to and you must add Clint Eastwood to this.
He wore lifts in his shoes and a corset
Spike Lee, never ever heard of him 🤷🏽♂️
I doesn't like John Wayne views but I will give him credit on macho and man mans that I do like and you need that these days
You betcha
I grew up watching Hollywood movies and many Westerns among them and some John Wayne flick. Also Kirk Douglas, Alan Ladd, Glenn Ford, Rock Hudson, Randolph Scott and everything would have been fine if it wasn't because at that time an Italian guy started making movies where we saw Cowboys and bandits compared to which US made cowboys looked like wussies. Just see these two subplots taken, by me, from real movies. In some traditional Western the hero is shot and he survives but he is badly wounded. Then every woman in the cast comes to nurse him back to health, they rally around the bedridden hero and bring him comfort, hot soup, bathing him, and so on. In a Leone flick in the same situation the badly wounded guy manages to go hide in an abandoned mine and there he tough if up, cure and nurse himself, like Rambo used to do, and then comes back to get his revenge. How could you not love this guy compared to the other one...?
RO,
While what you say Is So True The

@@robertc.johnson9614 Oh, poor people. I"ve always performed the thought experiment that if I had been predestined by God to come to this life and absolutely had go to Hollywood and follow a career in the movie industry, which would be one best fitted to my personality, tastes, skills, etc., and the answer that I had ready at hand was writer. Writing movie scripts would have been Heavens for me I thought. But now that you mention it....it would have been a living Hell. No artistic freedom at all, jus write what you are told to.

@@robertc.johnson9614 Yeah, it is sad, very sad, how they stymied the creativity of all those good writers and filmmakers between 30s and 60s. Most films of the era look tainted to me now. Watching from a modern perspective many of those flicks look simply ridiculous, even the comedies were we see a married couple sleeping with pajamas and in separate beds..! Or even bathrooms without toilet bowls..!. These Hays people were really a curse on Hollywood, those closed minded Catholics forced artists to confine themselves inside the straight jackets of their own anachronic beliefs and visions. Like I say, it is ridiculous, all those cowboys so well groomed and those frontier ladies who seem to be just coming out of the best hairstylist and beauty shop of Santa Monica Boulevard. They even seem to have pretty good dental plans and medical insurance...!

Surprised Katherine Hepburn ddnt care for John Wayne in real life they had such great chemistry both starring in the movie ROOSTER COGBURN!
Burt Lancaster hated Wayne too
