Not many actors can be characterized as "Genuine" but the duke can.. No matter the venue.. honest and genuine.. very few actors I could/would say that about... John Wayne is one..

Maybe Tom Selleck too.. as I thinking right now..

I don't think it would be a stretch to add Clint Eastwood in among the list of genuine actors. When I was younger, I never really was into the Western genre. Recently as 2 years ago, I saw the complete series of spaghetti westerns Clint become famous for.

Another thing you have to appreciate is that he appeared as himself on I Love Lucy. And that was when he was at nearly the top of his career!

He clearly enjoyed himself in that 3-part episode and proved he wasn't too self-important for the small screen.

Back then, that was a very big deal.
