DVD Review: The John Wayne Film Collection Box Set

01 Jul 2007 12:25:14 PDT

Written by Ian Woolstencroft
Wayne looks like he’s having a good time and with much of the film shot on location in Hawaii, it’s no wonder. From an acting point of view he seems uninterested but this isn’t a film about character it about making a political statement. Big Jim McLain makes Wayne’s The Alamo and The Green Bere...
