McLintock! (1963)

[ColeThornton]

It's a good film, although a bit too much talk between the fights. It looks pretty amazing in widescreen on the new edition DVD.

Here are examples of the book and the comic about the movie. Enjoy!

i thought this movie was one of the Dukes funniest movies. but him and Maureen always make a good team.

i ve just watched this and really enjoyed it. the comedy reminded me a bit of big jake. i also thought it was a great performance by maureen o'hara. the background information on the dvd was useful

You're right Badger, always a fan favorite and it always seems to get played at my house 6-8 times a year.

For "McLintock" Newbies:

Newcomers to "McLintock" may not immediately recognize that the plot is based on Shakespeare's play "Taming of the Shrew", later showing up on Broadway and in motion pictures as Cole Porter's musical, "Kiss Me Kate".

As noted in another post the PC media environs has made this film an unpopular choice for network TV viewing.

This is quite possibly my favorite John Wayne film. I loved it so much, in fact, that I somehow ended up with 3 copies at one point - 1 full screen version and 2 wide screen. The cast works so well together, and I love the inclusion of Jerry Van Dyke. And the chase scene at the end always has me rolling on the floor! The only thing missing was a nice part for Ben Johnson.

Duke and Maureen in any movie, but for me Yvonne DeCarlo was a pretty desert flower and her and Duke were good together.

Does anyone remember the name of the horse the Jerry Van Dyke rode (while drunk) in the race during the 4th of July festival?

I will wait a few days and see if anyone get's it. I know you can watch it, but try and see if you remember. I watched it last night and picked up on it. It's amazing, I have watched that movie atleast 20 times, probably more like 30 and I just now picked that up from the movie.

Wasn't the horse's name, "Agamemnon"?

Hey Dexter got it....can't catch anyone on this board. Good work........
