>>Shootist was good. But IMO his best westerns are the Calvary triology with John Ford. He was at his best. I have to rank The Searchers up there also.<<
Hands down: “The Quiet Man.” Not only Duke’s best flick, but one of the best flicks ever.

"Hands down: “The Quiet Man."
Quiet Man was great but I was only referring to westerns. If you include his whole catologue of films, the Quiet Man would be right up there. I believe that Moureen O'hara is still alive. One beautiful Irish lass. Back to the westerns, I can't believe I forgot "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance". That would have to rank up there as one of his best westerns also. There's so many...

LOVE that movie! (’The Quiet Man’, that is). I grew up in a household where John Wayne was practically worshipped, LOL.
My daughter’s class watched ‘True Grit’ last year in 5th grade. My stepdad said we did a fine job of picking a Catholic school :) She enjoyed it, too.
