Why John Wayne Still Ranks Among Today’s Most Popular Stars

Several months ago, the Harris Poll released its annual list of our ten most popular movie stars. Notably absent from the list were Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, and Brad Pitt (though Angelina squeaked on for the first time, tied for last place with Morgan Freeman).Ranked ahead of current box-office draws Tom Hanks and Johnny Depp, and just behind Denzel and Clint at the top of the heap, we find John Wayne. Notably, his is the only name from Hollywood’s Golden Age, and the only name that has appeared on every top ten Harris list over the past fifteen years.On May 26th, John Wayne would have turned 102. Though he’s been gone thirty years, his movies-and his outsize character- refuse to fade.Not surprisingly, the Duke is more popular with seniors over sixty, and he plays best in the West, and among Republicans. But still…think of all the great actors from that vibrant period when Wayne was making pictures: Bogart, Grant, Brando, Newman, to name just a few. In their own time, it could be argued that each of these names were hotter than Wayne’s, and yet, they don’t make the list. They seem part of the past, while the Duke stubbornly lives on.What accounts for this actor’s uncanny endurance? Other better actors played cowboys, like Gary Cooper and Jimmy Stewart. Other bigger stars like Clark Gable and Gregory Peck played soldiers. But around the world, whenever John Wayne played a cowboy or a soldier, he was America. Wayne’s persona- its bigness, roughness, but also its decency- literally came to define our heritage. And to a surprising degree, it still does.Wayne himself would never have predicted the longevity of his image, and would be incredulous if he knew about it. During his lifetime, he was no stranger to setbacks and self-doubt. After a failed early shot at stardom in 1930’s “The Big Trail”, the Duke had to toil in “B” western potboilers for nearly ten years before director John Ford gave him another chance at the big time.And then- even when he’d made it, over the years he was repeatedly told by Ford, his frequent collaborator and mentor, that he simply couldn’t act. He took the abuse stoically. Though his range was limited, he could indeed act, and after Wayne’s memorable performance in “Red River” (1949), even Ford had to admit it, though not to his face.One might reasonably assume that Wayne’s right-wing politics would also work against the popularity he still enjoys. Although (ironically) he accepted Gary Cooper’s Oscar in 1952, Wayne supported the McCarthy Communist witch hunt, and railed against the classic “High Noon” for being un-American. (Indeed, several years later, Howard Hawks and Wayne would make “Rio Bravo” as a “patriotic” response to the earlier film).By the time he won his sole Oscar for 1969’s “True Grit”, he was still an outspoken hawk, openly defending the Vietnam War, and to prove it, starring in 1968’s chest-thumping “The Green Berets”.Predictably, he was distinctly old-fashioned in his views on gender and race as well. But there was an open, bluff quality to Duke Wayne that made people forgive and even respect him. He was principled without being self-important, supported the right of others to differ with him, and mellowed considerably after his first serious brush with cancer in 1964.He even had a well-concealed sensitive side. His lifelong friend Claire Trevor, who co-starred with him in “Stagecoach”(1939), once showed me a touching poem he’d written on the death of her step-son, with whom he’d been unusually close. The verse was heartfelt and moving, the work of a man capable of deep feeling. I have never forgotten reading it.For someone who reputedly couldn’t act, John Wayne certainly made a lot of great movies. I’m going to list a few of his lesser-known titles that are personal favorites of mine. Please add your own top Duke picks, along with any thoughts you have on what keeps his star burning so bright.The Long Voyage Home (1940)- After the success of “Stagecoach”, John Ford was eager to display his new find again. Here, Wayne plays simple Swedish seaman Ole Olsen, who finds himself on a merchant ship at the start of World War 2, surrounded by a nervous crew. The ship is carrying badly needed ammunition to the British, making it a highly desirable target for German U-Boats. There may also be spies aboard.Boasting stunning cinematography from Gregg Toland, who’d go on to collaborate with Orson Welles on “Citizen Kane”, Ford’s film generates tension mixed with a subtle melancholy. Anchoring this unheralded sea picture is the brilliant Thomas Mitchell as old salt “Drisk” Driscoll, ably supported by character actors Barry Fitzgerald and John Qualen, among others.They Were Expendable (1945)- Director Ford again delivers a powerful human tale of hope barely sustained during the darkest days of World War 2. This is the story of the PT boats during those tough, early days in the Pacific. Skipper John Brickley (Robert Montgomery) and his right hand man, Rusty Ryan (Wayne), have difficulty convincing the navy brass of the PTs’ value to the war effort.Eventually, these nimble craft play a vital role in turning the tide, allowing General MacArthur to keep his promise to return there.Montgomery (father of Elizabeth from “Bewitched”, and an actual decorated PT boat skipper) is superb as the embattled but stoic Brickley, with Duke an ideal counterpoint as the rough-around-the-edges Ryan. Donna Reed also makes a bewitching love interest as the nurse who falls for Rusty.She Wore A Yellow Ribbon (1949)- In this second of John Ford’s Cavalry Trilogy, Wayne ages considerably to play Captain Nathan Brittles, a career frontier officer facing imminent retirement, a prospect that fills him with dread, as his only family is the army. However, one last mission confronts him: an Indian uprising is brewing, and with a small team, Brittles must escort his superior’s wife (Mildred Natwick) and niece (Joanne Dru) out of harm’s way.”Ribbon” still registers, thanks to an emotionally layered performance from Wayne, combined with Victor McLaglen’s comic turn as a tippling top Sergeant, and color cinematography that turns Monument Valley into an animated Remington painting (netting cinematographer Winston Hoch an Oscar). A young Ben Johnson also stands out as Sergeant Tyree, a brave soldier very much in the Brittles mold.Hondo (1953)- The best John Wayne western not directed by John Ford or Howard Hawks, “Hondo” showcases the Duke in his prime. Hondo Lane (Wayne) is a cavalry rider who encounters Angie (Geraldine Page) and her young son homesteading near Apache territory. Hondo warns her that the Apaches are on the war path, but she refuses to clear out. When Hondo returns, hostilities have started, and he must protect the family, while holding a terrible secret.Helmed by John Farrow (Mia’s dad), the film is stunningly photographed on location in lustrous technicolor, with a trim story brought to life by a luminous Page in her film debut, and Ward Bond (Duke’s real-life crony) as Hondo’s friend. Also look for James Arness in a pivotal role- he’d soon make his career in Westerns on TV’s long-running “Gunsmoke”- and Wayne himself would introduce the first episode.Hatari! (1962)- Sean Mercer (Wayne) heads a group of game-hunters in Africa who capture animals for zoos. Sean’s sense of order is upset when his trusted driver (Bruce Cabot) gets hurt, and even more so when chic female photographer Dallas (Elsa Martinelli) arrives to shoot a magazine spread. Will Sean keep Dallas safe till she can take her pictures and go home?Good-natured Howard Hawks outing was a nice change of pace for Wayne, with its jocular tone and gorgeous on-location shooting. (Don’t miss those thrilling wild animal chases.) “Hatari” boasts deft ensemble playing from Cabot, Red Buttons, and Hardy Kruger, who make up Mercer’s core team. And we can well understand how Martinelli’s Dallas would get under Sean’s thick skin. A catchy Henry Mancini score completes this exuberant, diverting picture, ideal for all ages.The Shootist (1976)- For his swansong, Wayne teamed with “Dirty Harry” director Don Siegel for this elegiac story of a dying gunman who longs for a noble end, but must contend with vultures intent on feeding off his reputation and gloating over his impending demise. Renowned for his six-shooting prowess and high body count, J.B. Books (Wayne) rolls into Carson City to look up trusted friend Doctor Hostetler (James Stewart), who confirms Books has terminal cancer. Hoping to end his days quietly, Books retreats to a boarding house run by widow Bond Rogers (Lauren Bacall) and son Gillom (Ron Howard). But with Books’s violent past, can this old legend go gently into that good night?Here the aging star is by turns courtly, stoic, and world-weary playing off Bacall’s rigid but ultimately sympathetic widow. And from that opening montage of old Wayne films, you realize you’re watching a movie not just about the demise of the Old West, but also about the end of one actor’s legendary career.. Thus, “The Shootist” can’t help but be poignant. Predictably, the Duke does it proud…to the very last shoot-out.

Are Marcasite Jewelry Suited For My Lifestyle?

The sixty-four year period between 1837 to 1901 is known as the Victorian era, which period was marked by the ascension of a young Victoria to the throne of England. This was a period of great romance, epic tragedies (especially with the death of Victoria’s husband Prince Albert in 1861) and unparalleled prosperity.Jewelry styles of the era fell into three broad classes: the Romantic period (1837 to 1860) which was marked by jewelry with complex engravings, subtle enamel work and serpentine designs; the Grand Period (1861 to 1888) which coincided with Victoria’s bereavement and so was marked by jewelry reflecting dark, somber themes; and the Late Victorian period (1889 to 1901) where diamonds ruled and jewelry pieces were decidedly whimsical and spectacular.Soon after Queen Victoria’s death, there’s a brief period of alter within jewelry style, known as the Art Noveau – marked by jewelry inspired naturally and themes mythological in origin – and also Edwardian period characterized by jewelry of airy lightness and awesome elegance reflective of British aristocracy and wealthy American industrialists.The styles of the era – marked by plenty of small but brilliant stones (especially during the Late Victorian era and also Art Noveau/Edwardian period) inlaid in silver along with other precious metals – are going through a revival today. Modern Victorian-era inspired jewelry, however, are making use of a mineral called marcasite or white pyrite instead of the usual stones. Marcasite (occasionally known as white pyrite or white iron pyrite) are actually pyrite crystals that are made into jewelry.Besides, the variety of this jewelry ranging from earrings, lockets, watches, rings yet others have caused this type of jewelry become a choice of most people. Additional factors which boost the popularity of this jewelry are generally stunning design and uniqueness. It is produced from the combination of silver and marcasite (white iron pyrite). This is absolutely different from usual silver jewelry on the market.It’s sure the best choice if you want to out-stand from the crowd of folks that wearing jewelry. You will find four things describe with this jewelry. Classy, exquisite, beautiful and fashionable. It is sure will look great on you for no matter what occasion you will attend to.Marcasite Earrings:This type of marcasite jewelry is suited well to use it daily whether you are occasionally or simply for daily life. Marcasite earrings can be put into two categories that are stud and long drop. Stud marcasite earrings are suited to both occasion and daily life. However it depends on the kind of stud marcasite earrings that you choose.Typical stud marcasite earrings without gem stone are the best choice for daily usage and casual fashion. At the same time, a long drop earring is much more suited to formal event and celebrations because it tends to swing front and back whilst you move. The moments your long drop earring swing, you will look elegant and gorgeous. Long drop earrings with gem are appearing more stylish and shine.Marcasite Rings:We had seen lots of styles on this marcasite jewelry before. Not either one might make me fall in love. However lately, the designers have come up with slim width of rings. Have this grabbed my attention? Yes for a lot of it. For me, it is weird for having the broad ring. The kind of ring which i like the most could be the plain one with black onyx or some other gems. Your choice may differ from mine. As long as you like it, it doesn’t matter what other people say. So, pick the right choice.Marcasite Watches:Precisely what makes this type of marcasite jewelry more advanced than others within the same class? If you look at its design, the difference is on the band. With many designs of bands, you may be blind to decide on which one you need to buy. The curly band, the straight band, the band with many chains or even the plain and tiny band. So, which one would you like to choose? Actually a number of them included with gem stone.It’s stunning. Marcasite wrist watches are not only found for women but you will find for men too. Watches for men are not the same as women watches. The bands are often broad and silver color which can be normal and ideal for men.Marcasite Pendants, Lockets and Necklaces:This is a form of marcasite jewelry that you must own or make it as your own collection. New gorgeous designs are come up everyday which makes me ‘crazy’! For your information, I’m a lover of locket, pendant or necklace. I’m good without wrist watches and rings but I am dying without earring and pendant, locket or necklace. Just imagine that you’re wearing a gown or blouse with out those jewelries. You might look empty.You will find many marcasite pendants, lockets or necklaces on the online retailers. For me, this kind of jewelry can be put into two categories just like marcasite earring. I may only buy a locket which will be only for special events because I feel not comfortable when wearing it daily. A pendant will be my option for daily jewelry. Which one is more beautiful? Individually, I choose pendants. What about you? Marcasite necklace is in the same category as marcasite pendant.Great things about Marcasite Jewelry1. Affordable. Who doesn’t want cheap stuffs should they be good. Even though it’s cheap, it does not mean that the product quality is low.2. Beautiful. This simply cannot be denied by anyone. I currently falled in love to the marcasite jewelry at the first time my boyfriend gave me a marcasite earring as birthday present. And I believed it was pricey due to the beauties it has.3. Uniqueness. Nearly all of expensive silver jewelries provide the similar styles. Even so, I can see the difference in the design of marcasite jewelry.4. Quality. And this lots of people think when purchasing any types of jewelries. If marcasite jewelry is low in quality, I am sure there will be a headline in papers or weblogs mentioned that this kind of jewelry is not really worth to own.5. Fantastic gift idea. Exactly why? With all the inexpensive price plus the beauties, uniqueness and quality, why definitely not marcasite jewelry become a present for someone special to you for special occasions ans events such as Birthdays, Wedding anniversaries, Valentine Day, Christmas or maybe Easter. Or why not simply treat yourself?And so, this is time for you to own marcasite jewelry. Which one could be your choice? I by myself already have a listing to buy. I am better with this type of jewelry than buying other jewelries that may be thought to be waste. It is time for you to choose.
