Hondo,
I didn't intend to split hairs. I'm sorry if it seemed that way.
But in the joint venture search at IMDb, even taking into account all possible occupations, those three actors only had the three above mentioned movies in common. I would have thought they had more than that, too.
John Wayne and Ben Johnson had 8 appearances together (that does not include 2 posthumous joint "appearances" (both after JW's death, one after Johnson's death). That number only goes up by one, when you throw in Fort Apache.
John Wayne and Ward Bond show 22 joint acting ventures, and the 23rd joint venture, a movie called China Doll, lists the Duke as an uncredited producer.
Ben Johnson and Ward Bond worked together in no more than 4 movies.
I guess I've kicked that dead horse "deader than a beaver hat."
