    This is a neat subject! I grew up watching all the John Wayne War movies with my Dad and the Westerns with my Grandpa. I loved them ever since I can remember. When I was about 10 yrs old I would dream that JW was my real dad. (I was adopted at birth.) I later discovered that my adopted dad and JW resemble each other a lot even though I hadn't picked up on it earlier. I think my favorites are the ones that include Maureen O'Hara. The Quiet Man, The Wings of Eagles, & McLintock.

    I grew up watching JW movies with my grandfather, who loved any western and my father, who has JW's look alike face! He has the same nose and eyes. I have admired JW and loved every single movie I have seen him in. My DVD collection is not very big but it is growing. I am 38 yrs old now and my 11 yr old son is a JW fan also. Our favorite movies to watch together is Hatari and McLintock. He loves the scene of the huge mudfight. He has seen every war movie JW has made. When my son isn't watching a Star Wars movie, he has on John Wayne. He knows that gets mom and dad to sit on the couch with him for a show.
