Better extra features than I'd expect from Paramount

Paramount is generally clueless about handling the classic movies they have in their possession. Just because the movies star John Wayne, I wouldn't expect Paramount to treat them any differently, but this time they actually did a good job. Paramount actually included commentary on five of the films, although why there isn't anything extra on the wonderful "Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" and there's only a featurette on the epic "In Harm's Way", I don't know. The product description does a pretty good job of describing each film, so I'll just list the extra features for each movie:

Big Jake - NO EXTRAS

Donovan's Reef - NO EXTRAS

Hatari! - NO EXTRAS

In Harm's Way - Three theatrical trailers; "The Making of in Harm's Way"

El Dorado - NO EXTRAS

Even though we're not getting "The Quiet Man" in this extensive set, "McLintock" almost makes up for it as the dynamic between John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara is just as combative with that same underlying chemistry. Think of it as The Quiet Man of the frontier west. Highly recommended.

Great gift...

I bought the John Wayne box set for my father, but I like the movies listed here. John Wayne was a hero in his time, and as far as I'm concerned no one else can be the actor or even come close to the work he accomplished. I greatly recommend this box set for anyone who's a big fan of the classics.

TRUE AMERICAN

JOHN WAYNE is what all us AMERICANS THINK and would like to be, these films, despick the lives and way we all wish we were. I WATCH THESE MOVIES WHEN I get discouraged with the way some of our leaders conduct themselves. RESTORES my faith in the COWBOY-AMERICAN WAY.
