I love, love, love John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. They were incredible individually, but together, they were perfection! They spanned a couple of decades working together and even during the later part of their careers, even during Big Jake, their chemistry was just as electric as it was in Rio Grande.
My favourite Actor of all time, grew up as a child watching his movies in the UK. Bought every VHS tapes then dvd now blu ray. And did a marathon run watching them during the coronavirus lockdown, i miss those actors they had style, John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were fantastic together The Quiet Man Rio Grande Big Jake McLintock! I wish they did a few more together R.I.P. Duke i am still watching your films today 😀
They never had an affair but both loved and respected each other and she said the biggest compliment she ever got was when zDuke was asked about O'Hara and he answered "the greatest guy I ever knew".
He has been dead for nearly 38 years and he still makes the women swoon. I know several young girls (early twenties) that have John Wayne posters in their rooms. The cinema doesn't have men like Wayne anymore, and today's men seem to have had their balls cut off. John Wayne was a Father figure, fantasy lover figure, and just all around a man who made women want to be with men like him. Now another young generation is smitten with him.
Stephanie Powers should do some type a audio book. Her voice has a relaxing satin like quality. One could just listen and actually be interested in the topic. Wow!
Thank you Both for letting us know how the Duke really was and you are a hell of a woman like me surgery and all you two looked as though you belonged together no one else fit together as well I love you two together both such a pair in Quite Man omg those love scenes! Yum just the masculine an feminine way you connected !Fabulous and what did you whisper in dukes ear at end of quiet man!
It was great that Duke said to Stephanie Powers, it's "all in the eyes!!!" Duke always gave young actors "tips" and he wasn't "greedy" about giving other actors "the scene" if they earned it!!!! Angie Dickinson said the "best thing that ever happened to her was being cast in "Rio Bravo" and being in that with Duke Wayne!!!!!
The Duke was my boyhood idol. As a matter of fact, in 6th grade my family took a vacation to West Palm Beach, Florida and stayed at a friend's condo on Singer Island. The condo's owner was a close friend of the Duke's and had Dukes picture hanging on the wall there. Duke passed away while we were staying there and I can recall standing in the hallway staring at that picture with tears rolling down my face. My late mother woke up and saw me crying there and gave me a big hug knowing what he meant to me. Thanks mom! That "vacation" was pretty much over for me at that point knowing that I'd never get a chance to meet my "hero" now. A very poignant moment in my life for sure! So I went down to the local arcade and blew about $20 in quarters to take my mind off the sad news. I got REALLY good at the game "Berzerk" at that time and actually had the national high score on that game, for about a day, I think. Got my name into GamePro Magazines high score pages as I recall. The highs and lows in the life of a 6th grader from NW Indiana!
Maureen O'Hara is such a class act. I'm glad she finally got her much-deserved Lifetime Achievement Oscar at the Oscars this past year, even though the rat bastards cut her acceptance speech off. Rude SOBs!
I am female and the ignorant below statement deserves the title "ignorant'. This was a great film and the "spanking" that ignorant people call abuse was not even intended to be portrayed as anything but silliness. My God she had a corset on 3 layers of dress...how in the H do you abuse someone that way. DA. Anyway I loved the chemistry she and Wayne had on screen..the best film Wayne ever made and Ms . Ohara was the Quiet Man..Oh yes its involved a spanking briefly..abuse...what a joke. Some people need to GROW the Hell UP!! Those were fun films.....and no F words or sex scenes but never mind that. Miss great film making....great time it did exist and we still have it on celluloid. Not much today people will luv to watch 50 years later. Also lets forget the wonderful Yvonne De Carlo in this film either...
Celisar1 You need to grow up and get out of your ignorant liberal Neanderthal world and realize when things are tongue and cheek and not real. No doubt U think Hillary Clinton is awesome (of course she takes money from countries who practice slavery but don't let REAL world effect your views) compared to laughable situations. A beating is NOT a spanking...I know the difference from childhood and the era I grew up in didn't produce the serial killers who came from loving, strict homes with corporal punishment as it did with the parents who gave their kids everything and had 2 parents with careers....example the Columbine killers. This film is a bit dated but I like it better than the rest of the garbage in TV today. Go protest the rap videos and lyrics...where are you then??? I bet the silence is deafening.
Denis Diderot: Your lack of good manners is obvious but I, too, would recommend to watch "On Golden Pond" as a really good classical movie. Well, that shows that even a dumb person can give good advice from time to time.
To D.D.: Obviously you use these anonymous comments to show yourself as the insulting, mean and rude human being you are. I pity you and break off the conversation. There will be no more replies.
+Celisar1 The scenes wouldn't work the other way around. Men are bigger and stronger than women. If anyone's going to do the spanking, it's going to be the men. lol
I've always loved Maureen O'Hara...she is a fox....he and the duke made some awesome movies...really like The Hard Man...the duke went to Ireland...just saw a scene from the movie...
Bentonite is a powdered mineral substance that is used by farmers, ranchers and the construction industry to line man-made ponds or stock tanks because water can't flow through it and it creates a barrier.
Maureen O’Hara left out a film location. The scene with the cattle pens was filmed near St. David, Arizona. Mr. Sugart owned the property just north of the cattle pens. He appears as an extra standing next to Wayne’s son when John Wayne is giving his speech to the homesteaders. The area south of the cattle pens is now a wilderness area.
yeah i felt the same they dont makem like her and the Duke anymore every actor today is a joke next to the professionalism patriotism and character of these two
We use to live on Balboa Island very close to the Wayne Estate just across the channel from him. One time my brother and I were on our paddle boards coming back from the Orange Julies shop (on the Newport side) where the ferries go from Balboa Island to Newport on the main channel. By accident my brother Von hit the Dukes Minesweeper Boat and he came out of the wheel house yelling at us to get away from his boat. Von was 14yrs old and I was 11. That happened in 1973. My grandparents lived in Costa Mesa and my grandfather played Golf with John at the Country Club and John talked my Grandfather into buying the same car but it was brown. Ahh such childhood memories....... John Ehrhart RN US Coast Guard Retired
i believe she was a class act..but everyone has flaws..and i would hope that she wouldnt harmful divulge info about any folks she ever worked with..because what go around come around..however..her beauty graced many movies.. thank you.
"The Quiet Man" is one of the finest films ever made. Great directing and an unbelievably good supporting cast. Every damn one of them. How many films can you say that about the entire cast? Right up there with "Casablanca".
Wayne & O'Hara. One of the greatest screen couples of all time.
amen.
You couldn't have a better combination of actor and actress together: John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara
The Quiet Man is my favorite of the movies they did together.
My only regret in Weterns is that John Wayne never was in a movie with Gary Cooper.
I partly agree but your forgetting Errol flynn and olivia de havilland who made 9 movies together and they also had great chemistry!!!
I love, love, love John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. They were incredible individually, but together, they were perfection! They spanned a couple of decades working together and even during the later part of their careers, even during Big Jake, their chemistry was just as electric as it was in Rio Grande.
RIP Maureen
Proud woman... her and Duke legends...
I love the fact that in this interview Maureen only called him Duke and nothing else, she respected him and he respected her.
great affection for each other ... which explains why they worked together often
My favourite Actor of all time, grew up as a child watching his movies in the UK. Bought every VHS tapes then dvd now blu ray. And did a marathon run watching them during the coronavirus lockdown, i miss those actors they had style, John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were fantastic together
The Quiet Man
Rio Grande
Big Jake
McLintock!
I wish they did a few more together
R.I.P. Duke i am still watching your films today 😀
If we could only return to the days when we sat with our parents and watched these classics....I fear this will never return to movies
I don't watch this mess today ,full of porn,filth,
I like this movie, but my favorite Wayne/O'Hara movie is The Quiet Man. He was also great with Bacall in The Shootist and Hepburn in Rooster Cogburn.
Maureen OHara was such a strong woman soo classy. One of the few still alive today. Great film era she was in. Bless U lady. :)
I knew her as one of my friend's aunt Fitzsimons in Boise. She was a real class act.
She had a magical connection with John Wayne and it shows.
They had great chemistry plus they had a long term affair. She wasn't the kind of woman he could control or he would have married her.
They never had an affair but both loved and respected each other and she said the biggest compliment she ever got was when zDuke was asked about O'Hara and he answered "the greatest guy I ever knew".
@@lindamcneilly7389 Looking forward to the new book on the Duke. It's gonna have details on his many affairs.
He has been dead for nearly 38 years and he still makes the women swoon. I know several young girls (early twenties) that have John Wayne posters in their rooms. The cinema doesn't have men like Wayne anymore, and today's men seem to have had their balls cut off. John Wayne was a Father figure, fantasy lover figure, and just all around a man who made women want to be with men like him. Now another young generation is smitten with him.
Your Awsome
My only regret in Weterns is that John Wayne never was in a movie with Gary Cooper.
They are my favorite screen couple. McLintock and The Quiet Man are two of my favorite movies. God bless them both.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I can’t help but believe that John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara were in love with each other on some level.
Maureen O'Hara was, is, and always will be my first and truest love -- she is fire and class in one package.
thank you for this! RIP Miss O'Hara!
Maureen O'Hara was just so beautiful and full of life in movies. She aged beautifully too :)
My favorite John Wayne movies are the ones with Maureen O'Hara.
My favorite movie with them is “The Quiet Man”
Best ever!
" the quiet man , " and " the searchers . " they dont make them like that anymore .
Bryce Hiigel mine too
One of my favorite John Ford movies ever. That kiss scene. That entire fight sequence. The entire movie is a work of art.
Mine also. Her facial expressions were outstanding.
Stephanie Powers should do some type a audio book. Her voice has a relaxing satin like quality. One could just listen and actually be interested in the topic. Wow!
Wow that is a nice comment! I watched this because I'm fan of Maureen O'Hara! :) Greetings from Ireland! :)
She did-- her memoir One From The Hart. It's a fascinating book and her voice is beautiful
people dont know that he protected maureen from an abusive relationship, he loved her in real life

they say you couldn`t take your eyes off john wayne on screen...he had amazing charisma. unique.
I could not take my eyes off her, so beautiful and radiant in technicolor.
This movie was GREAT, AND THE LAST SCENES ARE HILARIOUS!!!
Such a classy time in our history
Amazing woman Maureen! John and her were very well matched and I love all the movies they made you cannot fake that kind of chemistry!
Just like Errol Flynn and Dame Olivia De Havilland
I WILL LOVE MAUREEN OHARA FOREVERY
God Bless John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara.
I miss them both, they had real acting talent!
He was a man. A wonderful, politically incorrect, patriotic man. And millions of us miss that man.
I love Hart to Hart no one else could play that series.
I sure do miss all the old time movie stars never have them
GREAT movie...beautiful people
I have felt the same about Maureen since seeing the movie The Quiet Man as a little kid in 1953. God bless her.
Maureen O'Hara saying "birdshit." I can die now.
I love John Wayne to pieces
My absolute favorite John Wayne film!
She was so beautiful. That red hair and small waist, good bone structure. God, I wish I looked like that!
+Honeycombe88 : Big shoulders
I am a cowboy from way the Duke was the real cowboy of my Era I will never for get him lots of memories he left for every one
When I was a little girl I thought Maureen and theDuke were married! They were close!
Classic, I am ashamed not to have known the beautiful daughter was Stephanie Powers
My favorite movie of all time! ❤️❤️❤️
Two of the most beautiful women to ever grace the silver screen.
The days when it was ok to be a strong man and a strong classy woman. Today you almost get in trouble for just using the pronouns
Frick'em, use the pronouns, if they don't like it, I don't care...
True
It's still ok to be strong...man or woman. Neither will undermine the other.
Maureen O'hara and John Wayne are in heaven.
fantastic movie! always fun to watch! great to hear the behind the scenes stories!
Maureen hara in er days was so hot energetic gorgeous love er films gone indeed not forgotten rest in peace
John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara were never married in real life, but they certainly seem like a match made in heaven.
All John Wayne movies are great, especially Big Jake.
Well said Offgrid.John Wayne was of the stuff that real man are made of.He was a boyhood idol of mine.
john and Maureen work a lot together were a good couple played off each other well
For me The Quiet Man and Big Jake were the best.

Has there ever been a more Irish woman than Maureen?

It's not always a powder. Depends on the use, it's used in food and so much more. Before it's processed it's clay

They were great movies and great couple to grow up with !
I love Stef, she’s beautiful inside and out
she was the first person I fell in love with. Over 40 years ago and I still love her today. I was 10
Maureen o hara is my granny aunt
Maureen O'Hara was my ideal woman (at 10 years old).
Maureen O'Hara is my ideal woman (59 years old).
I love both of these women!
Stephanie Powers! 😍 gorgeous
No more whiskey we go home!
Sempre amarei seus filmes juntos .
Stefanie Powers - she certainly did replicate that rapport with Robert Wagner!
RIP, Mary Kate
+Sal ty i second that
Sí, descanse en paz.
I think you're right there friend. He believed in a power greater that himself.
My favorite parts of "McLintock", are the fight at Mr. Poorboy's claypit, and the fight at the 'welcome home' party.
yeah i felt the same
they dont makem like her and the Duke anymore
every actor today is a joke next to the professionalism patriotism and character of these two
Ms. O’Hara was a superb pilot.
I've been in love with her that long too...a beautiful lady!
Looks like my Mum when she was younger so pretty like this lady Maureen O’Hara
I wonder when this was recorded and how old Maureen O’Hara was at the time. She looks great.
The "eyes" have it!
Top 100 movies of all time.
class John Wayne movie.. great cast
Love this movie!
I would have loved to hang out with John Wayne. It would have been a great time!
That was one great movie
Always wanted a man to grab and kiss me the way John Wayne grabbed and kissed Maureen!
If a man does that today, he'd be charged with abuse. Too many women don't know how to be a woman either. It takes both.
Well, hell little lady, where ya at, I'd be obliged to kiss ya,
Gimme a few minutes to find my dentures.
No joke. Wow
my first screen crush.
Very good.
But I will say that I think Maureen O'Hara is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.
ANYONE KNOW WHAT YEAR THIS INTERVIEW WAS DONE IN?THANK YOU.
Why didn't Maureen do The Shootist? She was the only thing missing from that film.
No. Other than Jimmy S., it was important that he be alone - with no one else from his body of work.
old time movie stars rip
This is what we once were. We lost it on the way. God help us now! The scum have taken over.
We use to live on Balboa Island very close to the Wayne Estate just across the channel from him. One time my brother and I were on our paddle boards coming back from the Orange Julies shop (on the Newport side) where the ferries go from Balboa Island to Newport on the main channel.

WE LOVE JOHN WAYNE FOREVER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
during the part of the big fight with the mud ohara had just had surgery and insisted on doing the stunts
I think her best stunt was falling backwards into the water trough.
