John Wayne
Good day, I would remind you
today because the John Wayne of this year would have been 100 years old. For me, and he was the best Western hero. He has always embodied the freedom of America.
Here is a statement of Phil Ochs: Source: says http://philipdavidochs.googlepages.com/
In a live recording made in 1968, the radical folk singer Phil Ochs: "I was John Wayne fan when I was younger. "The audience holds it for a joke and laugh But Ochs insists: "Our dilemma is that many of the greatest American artists were very right-wing and reactionary and not very intelligent. But in their area, they are great artists. I think that John Wayne is one of the greatest that ever came before a camera. . I dedicate this song to John Wayne "When he scrapes on the strings, he mutters into the giggles of the crowd". No one takes me seriously "
new invented in" Red River "
Wayne's real legacy are his most impressive films - "Red River", "The Searchers" and "The Man Who Who Shot Liberty Valance ". In them, John Wayne is simply a convincing and overwhelming embodiment of a conflicting American ideals of masculinity. In his person are the fascination of violence, the call of the wild, the nagging ambivalence about women and home, the bittersweet pleasure of a soured romance together - all the things we believe implicitly in the heart of what it means in America be a man. No wonder we are scared.
Howard Hawks is famous for Wayne in "Red River" to have re-invented. He has let it grow old and he missed the role of an embittered, obsessed patriarch whose love relationship has failed early. It was the role which was astonished John Ford: "I did not know that the great son of a bitch can act."
In "Red River" of Wayne, we know created. Before that he played a charming, brash young men, flirtatious, half-strong, but in their relations with women. Now, was from now on regardless of the yobs a weary, wary man in middle age - an age in which he had lost his wife and home already or not intended - without him would have ever paused to see if it something in between exist, such as marriage.
