I think this was one of John Wayne's most underrated movies. It's too bad that he didn't do more movies like this instead of some of the historical ones like the Conquerer which was just out of his range. This is really just an old fashioned family movie. His scenes with Sherry Jackson were great. You can tell that everything he did, he did it for her. Wayne and Reed have great chemistry together. I've always enjoyed Charles Coburn in just about everything he did and he's great here. All in all it was a very enjoyable movie. It's too bad that it's not as well known.

Encore's Western Channel is now airing Maverick weeknights at 6 pm. They aired the first episode yesterday. this show was always one of my favorites as a kid ( syndicated airings of course). James Garner has always been a favorite of mine.

This is one of the few JW movies I've never seen. I hope it's released on DVD someday. Good or bad it's still The Duke.

Thanks everybody. This is a great website. I've been learning quite a lot about the Duke since I started coming here.

Hey everybody. My name is Sonny and I'm from PA. I've been lurking around the boards for awhile and I thought I'd just say Hey. I've been a John Wayne fan for years and I got most of his A movies on video.
