I thought Roger gave one of the few good performances in that film.

Do you know if anyone tried to talk Wayne out of playing a cop? Did he himself have doubts about making this movie at the age of 67?

Well it depends what you're looking for I suppose. If Wayne had been 57 he could have played a tough cop, but not at 67. I guess that's why I preferred the more comedic feel of Brannigan. Also it was his only movie in England.

Chisum wasn't really the Seventies though as it was filmed in 1969. What did you dislike about it? I thought it was a bit overlong, but definitely better than McQ.

This was the only Duke movie I saw which I didn't like. Maybe it was because he was about ten years too old to be believable as a policeman, but I just found the film depressing and dull. At least "Brannigan" had more humour and a few exciting fight scenes.
