Of the two 'True Grits,' the John Wayne version one is better.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've seen John Wayne's 'True Grit' about 10 times.
Robert Mitchum sounded different from John Wayne, and John Wayne sounded different from Clark Gable.
What I really like about 'Grit' - especially being the guy who goes on TV every week and says 'Never Give Up' and who truly tries to live his life to that credo - we recruited 16 people who said, 'I will never give up.' And the only way they can leave the contest is by doing the one thing they said they never would.
John Wayne treated me fine, but that macho stuff turns me off. It's not real.
I grew up loving the John Wayne and Clint Eastwood westerns.
John Wayne was a consummate gentleman. Bigger than life.
John Wayne represents more force, more power than anyone else on the screen.
The more film I watch, the more John Ford looks like a giant. His politics aren't so good, and you have to learn to accept John Wayne as an actor, but he's a poet in black and white.
Westerns are cool, man. I'm big on Westerns. I just love the grittiness.
Grit is that 'extra something' that separates the most successful people from the rest. It's the passion, perseverance, and stamina that we must channel in order to stick with our dreams until they become a reality.
