"Rooster Cogburn was one of the few portrayals where Wayne actually played the character, instead of simply being "John Wayne dressed as XXXXXX". His range was limited"
Ah, excuse me guys; Sea speaks for himself.....
Sea ..... Go to Milton, Crestview or Defuniak stand on a street corner, one with a red light, and yell that for a few minutes. I bet you $100, bad things happen to you within 15 minutes. Want to bet? I get to come watch, it will be better than going to a Noles/Gators game. I think you might just get away with saying something about someone's mama faster than bad mouthing John Wayne around here.
Even the women in NW Florida love John Wane and his movies ..... hello.
