Quasi-villainous John Wayne is the best John Wayne.
Love that movie. Hate that Mongtomery Cleft died so young - he was just outstanding in this movie.
Got in a car wreck that essentially wrecked his body, turned to drugs/alcoholism, turned into something of a trainwreck and finally his heart gave out when he was in his mid-40s. But the guy could act.

For sure. From Tom Dunson in Red River to Ethan Edwards in The Searchers, Captain Ralls in Wake of the Red Witch (one of my John Wayne guilty pleasures), and even a shade of it in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance… When the Duke went just a bit dark, or even asshole like Sands of Jima, it’s when he was at his best. And people say he couldn’t act, pffft!
