"The Shootist" and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance"--two of my all time favorite movies! Wayne couldn't have picked a better movie to end everything on than "The Shootist". It's perfect.
I love the Shootist, but hate to watch it knowing it was his final film and like his character was dying of cancer....
I hate to sound like some old curmudgeon, but they sure don't make 'em like Stewart and Wayne anymore.
I also got In Harm's Way (John Wayne at Pearl Harbor with a host of other known actors.) When they run that on TV they edit out 20-30 minutes of the film so it doesn't make as much sense as the full length theatre version.
I wonder if that happen with Island in the Sky... cut down for commercials.
They had Lauren Bacall talking about her carrer she did mention the DUKE she was saying during filming of Shootist they have film certain hrs of the day to save Duke strength
