A Look Back At Screen Legend John Wayne's Best Known Films

I watched John Ford's great Civil War film The Horse Soldiers again last night.

Ford got a powerful performance from John Wayne, as usual, and he also got a fine performance from co-star William Holden and the many wonderful character actors in the film.

The Horse Soldiers, based on true events in the Civil War, has drama, action, humor and pathos. I've seen The Horse Soldiers more than a dozen times since I was a kid and I still love the film.
