The great John Wayne died on June 11, 1979.
His career goes back to the 1930’s: "Fort Apache" (1948), "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" (1949), "Rio Grande" (1950), "The Quiet Man" (1952) and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence" (1962).
“The shootist” from 1976 is my favorite movie. It was ironically the story of an old cowboy dying of cancer.
