  1. EL MOTIVO POR EL QUE SE SUSPENDIO EL RODAJE DEL WESTERN QUE HUBIERA UNIDO A JOHN WAYNE Y A CLINT EASTWOOD.
    Durante años, el western tuvo un rostro inamovible. El de John Wayne. Su silueta avanzando contra el horizonte no representaba únicamente a un actor, sino a toda una idea de América: hombres de códigos firmes, héroes frontales, pistoleros incapaces de disparar por la espalda…

  3. BARCELONA PLATO CINEMATOGRAFICO CON JOHN WAYNE DE PROTAGONISTA.
    Aquel verano barcelonés no empezó con un guion, sino con una imagen: la silueta de John Wayne recortada sobre la cubierta del Wild Goose, convertido en un palacio flotante que atracaba en el Mediterráneo como si el propio Hollywood hubiese decidido echar el ancla en la ciudad. Era agosto de 1963 y, sin necesidad de decorados artificiales…

  4. Hollywood legend who told the world he was from Neath to be honoured with blue plaque

    Ray Milland, who starred alongside screen legends like John Wayne and Grace Kelly, was the first Welsh actor to win an Oscar and became one of Paramount’s highest-paid stars during a career that spanned five decades.

    Now, 80 years after his career-defining Oscar win for the film The Lost Weekend, Neath Port Talbot Council has announced he will be recognised with a blue plaque.

    Milland joins a prestigious list of local figures to be honoured, including fellow acting giants Richard Burton and Sir Anthony Hopkins.

    The public will get a first look at the plaque at a free event this Friday, 6 March, at Melincryddan Community Hall from 3pm. It will later be installed at Milland’s childhood home on Dalton Road.

    The successful nomination for the plaque came from the Neath Antiquarian Society.

    Jonathan Davies, Chair of the society, said Milland never forgot his roots:

    “I have little doubt that there are few people in our history that have reached more corners of the world and told them he was proud of the fact that he was from Neath.

    “He’s known to have said, ‘When people say to me, you are English, I tell them I’m not English. I’m Welsh. Call me British if you like but never, never call me English’. His death was reported on every continent.”

    1946 was a golden year for Milland. As well as the Academy Award, he also won Best Actor at both the Cannes Film Festival and the Golden Globes.

    Councillor Cen Phillips, Cabinet Member for Nature, Tourism and Wellbeing, said:

    “It’s great to honour the first Welsh Oscar winner, Ray Milland. He had an amazing career and became a household name in Hollywood. This blue plaque celebrates yet another figure from the incredible cultural legacy that we have across the whole of Neath Port Talbot.”

    The council has confirmed that a further two blue plaques will be funded this year, with the funding window opening on 1 April.

  6. John Wayne – „Der Marshal“ (1969)

    Western sind kein Ort für Zweifel. Das Genre lebt von der Klarheit, und sei es unter Staubwolken und Blei. Dieser Film passt in diese Schablone und ist doch eigentlich größer. Die Geschichte ist simpel genug, um in jede Pulp-Anthologie der 50er zu passen. Aber die Verfilmung trägt eben die Patina der Zeit, in der der klassische Studio-Western schon auf der Zielgeraden war. New-Hollywood stand schon vor der Tür, doch Hathaway blieb noch bei der alten Rezeptur. (ARD)
