Comancheros

Actors: John Wayne, Stuart Whitman, Ina Balin, Lee Marvin, Nehemiah Persoff, Bruce Cabot, Jack Elam, Patrick Wayne, Edgar Buchanan

Rating: 9 out of 10, Once again into my recently acquired stack of beloved old movies with one of Wayne’s best. It’s a Western, duhh, with the usual early sixties lack of any historical accuracy but when Duke strides onto the screen much is forgiven. He has Stuart Whitman as his foil and continuously pokes fun, labeling him, “Mon-Soor” as the foppish Whitman is thrust into the midst of Texas Rangers fighting Indians and bandits. Another great stroll down memory lane with a movie that holds up remarkably well.

MVP: Wayne, the Duke, of course
