  • That was a fine tribute to Victor McLaglen, and how he asked about his son IMO to know if he will be alright for the future in his life. I can only imagine that Victor is smiling on his son with the great achievements he has made for himself with Duke and the Gunsmoke series.

    * Western star Harry Carey died in 1947. Director John Ford cast Carey's wife (Olive Carey) as Mrs. Jorgensen (the mother) and Carey's son (Harry Carey Jr.) as one of the sons (Brad) as a tribute to Carey. In the closing scene with John Wayne framed in the doorway, Wayne holds his right elbow with his left hand in a pose that Carey fans would recognize as one that he often used. Wayne later stated he did it as a tribute to Carey. Off-camera, Olive watched.

  • Yes he was. John Wayne has know the Carey Family since the 30's. We are now working on the first time Dobe met John Wayne. Thanks for asking.

  • Hondo Duke Lane,


    I do think that Victor McLaglen would be proud of his son. Dobe got to make a lot of films & tv shows with him. He sure has his own style of directing.

    in my opinion I believe you are right. I never doubted that. What kind of relationship did the McLaglen men have with each other? I think it was good, but maybe you can shed some light.
