I know everything I need to know about a person if they use "John Wayne" or "cowboy" as a disparaging adjective.
He is my favorite actor and "The Quiet Man" is in my Top 3 all time movies. Maureen O'Hara had a beauty in that movie that is to this day un-matched in cinema....

Maureen is the queen, but Susan Hayward, Maureen O’Sullivan ( in the old Weissmuller Tarzans ), and Jean Simmons ( Big Country ) were some beauties that come close.

Add McClintock to that list for me. I do believe that Miss O’Hara and Mr. Wayne had an affair going from all the movies they made together but there was never a hint of it. I loved both of them for their acting and John Wayne’s love of his country. God bless his soul and I know he is in heaven. True Grit, The Shootist etc. Loved them all, even his old three mesquiters movies were ok to some extent.And don’t forget Big Jake.

Maureen is still #1 in my eyes. And lifelong friend to the Duke.

John Wayne is my favorite Western, but I’m afraid he’s the second lead: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.
