A dad we shared with America in some of its finest cinematic moments. I think you will find this book appealing because it provides a glimpse into his personal life; a life that many people have not seen. Its personal effects and best-remembered film moments are our memories and yours. — Ethan Wayne President, John Wayne Enterprises Director, John Wayne Cancer Foundation ABOVE Four generations of the Wayne family in a magazine photo-essay from the 1970s. 8 9 ForewordMARTIN SCORSESE There was a time when John Wayne and America seemed more or less synonymous. When I was young, Wayne was the ideal of American manhood. His grace, his power, his ease, his beauty—there was something remarkable about his authority and the respect he commanded. As I grew older and the country became more divided, many of us realized that it was actually a certain idea of America that he represented, an idea that many young people found hypocritical and brutally insensitive to the rest of the world. But John Wayne the figurehead and John Wayne the actor were two very different entities. Sometimes they converged, though not as often as people once imagined. Many people during the Vietnam era chose to see the cinema through a strictly political lens, but those of us who loved movies knew that art could never be encompassed by politics. Jean-Luc Godard once wrote that when Wayne picked up Natalie Wood and cradled her in his arms in The Searchers, he could forgive him for supporting Barry Goldwater for president. Unlike politics, art could embrace the mysterious, the indefinable, the contradictory. And we knew the truth: that John Wayne was a genuinely great actor who had worked with several great directors—including William Wellman, Raoul Walsh, Don Siegel (who directed his last picture), Howard Hawks and, across five decades, John Ford—to fashion some of the finest pictures ever made. This wonderful collection of photographs gives us John Wayne the figurehead, John Wayne the actor, and John Wayne the human being. It’s a rich experience to look through these pages and see where Wayne’s three roles converged and diverged. Wayne appears to have enjoyed rugged sports, just like the characters he played. But you also get a glimpse of another side. Dick Cavett once wrote a little piece in which he remembered Wayne telling him how much he admired Nöel Coward’s writing, revealing that he knew his plays backward and forward and regretting that he could never convince anyone to cast him in Private Lives. In a few of these photos, you can see a dapper, urbane side to Wayne, and feel his longing to explore that kind of emotional register. You can see the toughness but the tenderness as well, without which his performances in Rio Bravo or The Searchers, not to mention the rich emotional textures of the films themselves, would have been unthinkable. And in all the photos, you see another, earlier America with different ideas of glamour, OPPOSITE PAGE John Wayne beauty, fashion, and behavior, a world that now feels as distant as the Renaissance. with Natalie Wood and Jeffrey A movie-made hero…a superstar, one of the very first…an image of manhood…and a great Hunter in John Ford’s classic filmThe Searchers (1956).

  • Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film a Thesis Submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in Pa
    Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Robert M. Dunlap May 2007 Oxford, Ohio Abstract Much work has been done investigating the historical accuracy of World War II film, but no work has been done using these films to explore social values. From a mixed film studies and historical perspective, this essay investigates movie images of American soldiers in the European Theater of Operations to analyze changing perceptions of masculinity. An examination of ten films chronologically shows a distinct change from the post-war period to the present in the depiction of American soldiers. Masculinity undergoes a marked change from the film Battleground (1949) to Band of Brothers (2001). These changes coincide with monumental shifts in American culture. Events such as the loss of the Vietnam War dramatically changed perceptions of the Second World War and the men who fought during that time period. The United States had to deal with a loss of masculinity that came with their defeat in Vietnam and that shift is reflected in these films. The soldiers depicted become more skeptical of their leadership and become more uncertain of themselves while simultaneously appearing more emotional. Over time, realistic images became acceptable and, in fact, celebrated as truthful while no less masculine. In more recent years, there is a return to the heroism of the World War II generation, with an added emotionality and dimensionality. Films reveal not only the popular opinions of the men who fought and reflect on the validity of the war, but also show contemporary views of masculinity and warfare.

  • Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema
    PERFORMING ARTS • FILM HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 26 VARNER When early filmgoers watched The Great Train Robbery in 1903, many shrieked in terror at the very last clip, when one of the outlaws turned toward the camera and seemingly fired a gun directly at the audience. The puff of WESTERNS smoke was sudden and hand-colored, and it looked real. Today we can look back at that primitive movie and see all the elements of what would evolve HISTORICAL into the Western genre. Perhaps the Western’s early origins—The Great Train DICTIONARY OF Robbery was the first narrative, commercial movie—or its formulaic yet enter- WESTERNS in Cinema taining structure has made the genre so popular. And with the recent success of films like 3:10 to Yuma and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the Western appears to be in no danger of disappearing. The story of the Western is told in this Historical Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on cinematographers; com- posers; producers; films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Dances with Wolves, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, High Noon, The Magnificent Seven, The Searchers, Tombstone, and Unforgiven; actors such as Gene Autry, in Cinema Cinema Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart, and John Wayne; and directors like John Ford and Sergio Leone.

    PARAMOUNT HOME ENTERTAINMENT FRANCE: FHCOM - Frédéric Henry Mobile : 06 20 83 23 73 [email protected] COMMÉMORATION DU CENTENAIRE DE JOHN WAYNE À CANNES : “HONDO, L’HOMME DU DÉSERT” EN 3D ET PLUS ENCORE Célébration des cent ans d’une icône du cinéma sur la Riviera française Le 26 mai 2007 est le jour du centième anniversaire de la naissance de John Wayne. Le sondage Harris 2007 sur les plus grandes stars du cinéma américain place la légende d’Hollywood en troisième place. Ce classement est exceptionnel si l’on considère que le dernier film de John Wayne est sorti en 1976 et que la vedette est décédée en 1979. Pour commémorer le centenaire du héros américain par excellence, le festival de Cannes diffusera cette année, cinquante ans après sa sortie, le seul film en 3D du “Duke”. Il s’agit d’un véritable événement puisque c’est en effet la première fois que le film “Hondo” sera diffusé en 3D en Europe. La société Batjac Productions de Gretchen Wayne (la belle-fille de John Wayne) est en train de procéder à la restauration numérique de plusieurs classiques dans lesquels John Wayne a joué et/ou a produit et que la société Paramount Home Entertainment International s’apprête à sortir en DVD sur le marché européen. Outre “Hondo”, les restaurations incluent l’ancêtre des films catastrophe, “Écrit dans le ciel”, l’émouvant “Aventure dans le Grand Nord”, ainsi que le célèbre western-comédie “Le Grand McLintock”. La première diffusion à Cannes du film “Hondo” en 3D n’est pas un hasard quand on connaît l’amour de longue date que porte la France aux films hollywoodiens.
