Personally, I think John Wayne was the reason General Norman Schwarzkopf was so popular during Desert Storm. John Wayne was larger than life. When he showed up you knew the bad guys were done for and all would be made right.

Schwarzkopf was larger than life and reminded people of the Duke. We were ready for another hero and John Wayne wasn't here.

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance is one of my all time favorite movies.

Schwarzkopf is no John Wayne:-)

I love it! I also love the fact that it's in black and white.
