Considering he is an actor, I am sure that he may say something (one time) that would not agree with FREEPERS and he would be bashed just like the rest of Hollywood. He was great at reading words off a script but that is what he is an actor. I am not one to put actors on pedestals.
That was one good-lookin’ dude! I have a photo up on my wall from Stagecoach - when the Duke was a gorgeous young man. During a party several years ago, one of my guests “keyed” it. Really. I’ve never found out who it was and shudder to think I may still be friends with this person. Although defaced, it still hangs on my wall.
God I miss John Wayne. Kick As$ and take names Duke!
