Please people, Bruce Dern is an actor, get over it. Someone had to play the part and he played it well. It did have an effect on people, and that is what a good movie does. I hated the part he played but he did it so well.
I am not a big Bruce Dern fan myself, but he is a fine actor. I find you all a little savage over this man's role. It wasn't Bruce Dern who killed John Wayne, it was Long Hair who killed Will Andersen.

He also demanded some of the shots to be redone due to the fact that it showed Books shooting one of the bar people in the back, and he didn't want any of his characters shooting anyone in the back.

Elly,
When you watch it, tell us about this movie. I'd like to hear about it. Is it worth a viewing?

Tell me about Central Airport. I am not familiar with the movie, and though Duke had a minor role, I don't know how his death was portrayed. I'd like to know more about that movie.
As for the best death scene, I'd have to say, Sands of Iwo Jima because it is the first movie I've seen him that he died. I did see The Shootist in 1976, but this would be since my renewed interest with John Wayne back in 1990.
