Max and Jason talk ”Best of John Wayne.”

We are trying something a bit different this week. In this week's episode we discuss a top 20 John Wayne films list, put together by Screen Rant (using IMDB scores). We debate the merits of the list and offer our own Wayne "best of" recommendations. Along the way we talk a lot about John Ford and Howard Hawks and a few other things besides. 

Wayne certainly is a controversial figure, but he made a lot of excellent westerns and his work defined the genre for decades, and his work is certainly worth examining, and many of his films are still worth watching, discussing, criticizing and even appreciating. 

Enjoy the show!

Here is the Screen Rant List that inspired our conversation.
