Welcome Pilgrims


This web site is dedicated to the great John Wayne. I will try to be different than most of the other Duke sites. Most of them give lots of information about his films, a filmography, pictures from his films, etc. Most of these sites don't change after they are posted. The content of this site will change from time to time, if you join my mailing list I will notify you when there are changes or new features added. To join the mailing list go here to the mailing list link or send me your comments by using the link at the bottom of this or any page on the site.

My views and information about John Wayne and the topics I select are gleaned from many different sources, print (books, magazines), Internet, and general media. A sources page link is the table below for you to consult. I hope you will return periodically to see what I have come up with.

As many of you know I am always tinkering with this site to add more features. I am in the process of making some more changes, so bookmark or add to your favorites this site so that you can check back regularly. Check the table below for links to other interesting areas of this site. The Gallery has been beefed up with more pictures and several film reviews have been added with more to come.

There have been some new releases of John Wayne films in the last several months. Olive Films has aquired the Republic Studios films from Paramount. You can get informed about the new releases by subscribing to our website newletter here. Check out these links for the January newsletter notifications and the May newsletter notifications. For these and other gift ideas visit the John Wayne Store.

Two new John Wayne releated books of recent release are now available. First is John Wayne: The Legend and the Man: An Exclusive Look Inside Duke's Archives, released December 4, 2012. First-ever authorized book by John Wayne Enterprises. Book to Feature Never-Before-Seen John Wayne Archived Photo Collection. This 272-page book celebrates Duke's life and legacy through set photography and stills from his cinematic masterpieces. Second is The Searchers: The Making of an American Legend by Glenn Frankel. This book tells the inside story of the making of that movie in Monument Valley, AZ along with the stories of the actors and the great director John Ford. That story alone would make this a magnificent book with an insider's look at a classic film, great actors and a classic movie backdrop. The story surrounding this movie is well told and some of the things we learn about Ford, Wayne and movie making during the 1950's are extremely interesting.

My first attempt at a blog is Classic Cinema by Newt. This blog is a little different from the many other movie blogs. I wish to bring to the attention of the casual film viewer information about lesser known actors/actresses and films. Most of the blog entries have a connection to John Wayne in some way, we can't lose sight of The Duke. This blog is separate from the newsletter I try to send out monthly to mailing list members but I intend to add a link in the newsletters to the blog.

Campfire Conversations Complete is available, order your copy today. This is a companion volume to the 2007 Deluxe Centennial Edition of interviews with co-workers of John Wayne.

John Wayne Store

The new store has many sections: In the DVDs section, there are John Wayne DVDS, some by directors that the Duke worked with most often, and Blu-Ray discs of John Wayne films plus a section of Blu-Ray discs not starring the Duke. On January 22, 2013 Olive Films will release a newly re-mastered 60th Anniversary Special Edition of THE QUIET MAN in HD on Blu-Ray from a 4K SCAN of the ORIGINAL NITRATE NEGATIVE. It will also be released in a DVD version. Olive Films has acquired the Republic Pictures rights from Paramount Pictures. They have previously released, on Blu-Ray and DVD other John Wayne films in 2012, such as, Rio Grande and 4 Three Mesquiteers films. Here is hoping that they will release (and re-master) other John Wayne films in 2013.

In the music section you can get the CD of John Wayne's album America, Why I Love Her. Also there are CDs of film themes and scores and other western music.

In the books section, one page of John Wayne books and a page of books about other actors and actresses, plus books of interest about Hollywood. New Duke book, John Wayne: The Legend and the Man: An Exclusive Look Inside Duke's Archives, released December 4, 2012. First-ever authorized book by John Wayne Enterprises. Book to Feature Never-Before-Seen John Wayne Archived Photo Collection. This 272-page book celebrates Duke's life and legacy through set photography and stills from his cinematic masterpieces.

There are other sections of interest such as posters and pictures of John Wayne and some of his female co-stars. There is section of John Wayne themed collectibles. The last section is Misc Goodies, items that didn't fit into the other categories. In this section are calendars, a John Wayne Monopoly game, a 1000 piece puzzle of the John Wayne 37 cent postage stamp, playing card set and even John Wayne magnets.

I hope you will visit the John Wayne Store and check out all of the interesting items that we offer. Scroll down the main store page for many specials that are of interest to John Wayne fans and classic movie fans as well. If your are not shopping at the John Wayne Store soon, you're burnin' daylight!
