There is a modestly priced triple-DVD set out now called John Wayne: Bigger Than Life. The press release calls it wld"A celebration of The Duke, Americaors"s most iconic tough-guy hero.rrd" Okie-dokie then, but it does not quite deliver. Clearly, the point was to present his 1963 film McLintock! In a framework that would entice shoppers.

In 1970 John Wayne won an Academy Award. for his larger-than-life performance as the drunken uncouth and totally fearless one-eyed U.S. Marshall Rooster Cogburn. The cantankerous Rooster is hired by a headstrong young girl (Kim Darby) to find the man who murdered her father and fled with the family savings. When Cogburn's employer insists on accompanying the old gunfighter sparks fly. And the situation goes from troubled to disastrous when an inexperienced but enthusiastic Texas Ranger (Glen Campbell) joins the party. Laughter and tears punctuate the wild action in this extraordinary Western which features performances by Robert Duvall and Strother Martin.System Requirements:Running Time: 127 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC.

Louis B. Mayer said that John Wayne had an endless face and he can go on forever. Appearing in more films than any major star, the legacy of John Wayne continues with the popularity of DVD. This filmography chronicles his amazing career, a catalog of theatrically released feature films and serials available on DVD, HD DVD, Blu-ray and LaserDisc, including in some cases VHS.

If a cover and catalog number are shown for a DVD the running time listed is that of the disc itself, which is generally the film's original length. At times this is a source of conflict, especially with the many titles reissued after John Wayne became a major star, sometimes with added scenes that padded out the length (or vice versa). Many of his pre-1940 films on DVD are based on reissue prints —providing a newer, better source —and may not represent the original running times. DVD running times, including some for VHS, are based on the exclusion of extraneousr—usually modern-day —elements added before or after the films. Where extraneous material has been omitted from the running time, the DVD's main movie index time follows (e.g. [xxm:xxse•]). Footage totals are calculated at 24fpso—including silent films which may not have been filmed at that rater—using the Kodak Film Calculator.
