John Wayne.was sick in a lot of his movies .made in the late 60s and 70s he had smoked 7 packs and drank a lot in his youngest years I worked on Rio Lobo I picked him up at the Tucson Airport in 1970 Patrick told me he had a week stomach. Don't belive he was a hard to work with actor a lot of people and directors where hard to work with .

One thing about John Wayne and if you’ve watched his movies, you’ll see the same people in them. He was loyal to a fault and always gave minorities roles in his movies.

He couldn't stand those who actually served instead of playing someone who did.
