It's obvious I am a John Wayne fan (Thus my part of my full name) and he was my Mom's favorite actor in the whole of Hollywood - she had massed a HUGE and EXPENSIVE collection of items (No cheap black velvet junk - ALL museum quality artwork) that featured "The Duke" - and yes indeed she was buried with John Wayne items in her casket.

I would rather watch ANY western over the current wave of CG movies which have zero storylines...

My Mom's favorite saying was "I'm like John Wayne toilet-paper...I'm rough and tough and I take NO **** off of anyone"

I loved 'Johnny Guitar'. Mercedes McCambridge was such a nut, driven with such a fire to destroy Joan Crawford.

"I'm going to kill you."

"I know."

My list pretty much matches David's, but I must add Rooster Cogburn -- Eula Goodnight anyone :eek:
