Do you enjoy John Wayne movies, or any of the older Western movies?

I am not a big western watcher but I do like John Wayne movies. Not to the point that I watch them all the time but every now and then I will throw a John Wayne movie in my vcr player. I like to watch him and like the way he comes across on the screen. He was a person who portrayed the American Way. But I would not like to watch him constantly.

I like a few of John Wayne movies that were his westerns, Rio Lobo, Rio Bravo, and El Dorado. Those three are the ones I like with him. With Clint Eastwood I love Two Mules for Sister Sara and also Paint Your Wagon (Not your typical western though) and I liked his later one Pale Rider but that was a much later one. I was never big on the westerns but there are some I like. Maybe try to get him to watch ones like Calamity Jane or Cat Ballou? Those are westerns just different ones:) that you might like as well.

I like watching Westerns - it is a shame they don't make any good ones these days so we have to watch the old ones again. I think it is a bit like watching horror films but with lots of sunshine and horses - the times were so brutal. I am glad I did not have to be a pioneer then especially a female. 'The Alamo' is a great film because it is so moving, is full of stars and has a haunting tune.

I can't remember the name of the actor can you help me? He started as an acrobat and did loads of films especially westerns. That is not really much help is it? He did great films too anyway. Was he a Burt?
