McQ (1974)

What was the idea of John Wayne hiding in the car boot in this film? The footage however never made the final print.

Was that when his TA was wedged between the 2 trucks? Duke was jostled down from his seat while the car was crushed. The footage is in the film.

I believe in that scene he spread across the front two seats.

right-console would block him from being entirely on the floor-

Chester provided an image once that had Duke lying in the boot and it seemed to be from the beach scene, however I've no idea how this would have related to the movie.

Robbie, A little to far back for the old brain cells, don't remember.

Poor shot but will take a better one later! US half sheet.

Strange, when I key in McQ on the search it doesn't find anything, but there's clearly a thread?

A slightly less blurred version of the poster!

Nice poster, Dooley. I have the press book for this film, and it uses the same image on the front.

Thanks Mark, you should upload a few pics on here too!
I know it takes time but it's worth it. I'm happy that I'm getting round to cataloging my Duke ans Western stuff!

The more I see this movie, the more I enjoy it. My main complaints-which have nothing to do with Duke-1. the car chase ending kinda anti-climatic. It would have been better ending with a crash, or leading to a confrontation with the baddies. 2. The TA should have been used in the final chase along the beach, instead of it being trashed in an alley. I don't know how the heck he fit in it, but Duke looked great with the car.

I agree with you alamo221. I haven't watched this one much but every time I do I enjoy it more. It is slowly creeping up in my rankings, hence buying the poster!

I have the insert and one sheet on the film-always liked the poster.
