My wife never liked John Wayne, but I convinced her back in 1976 to see the movie with me. At the end of the movie, she was crying as she was so sad for his fate and the condition he was in; but more importantly, she acknowledged what a great acting job he did in his final movie. I guess The Academy figured one Oscar for Best Actor was enough for Wayne for True Grit years earlier, but he definitely deserved one for The Shootist and The Searchers.

Exactly my thoughts in regard to the Oscar: The Searchers and The Shootist! I've watched The Shootist around 20 times in my 29 years. Every time at the end my eyes are wet since I first saw it as a youth. The Searchers was his best acting in a technical sense, but The Shootist was his best acting in a totally trancendent way. Here he combined everything in one, from his screen persona over character acting to myths and de-mystification. John Wayne himself felt he had been overlooked for a nomination due to the studio not supporting the movie enough. And to this day he is an underappreciated character actor.

Paul Simmons he was not dying of cancer, The Shootist was filmed and released in 1976. John Wayne was diagnosed with stomach cancer in January of 1979 and died June 11th 1979. He had Lung cancer previously in 1964 and had a cancerous lung and three ribs removed and lived another 15 years cancer free although he had numerous other health issues including several bouts of influenza, pneumonia and heart issues along with breathing problems and had to use a oxygen tank when not filming in those 15 years.

@James Henderson not "diagnosed" but he had it. He got lung cancer in 1964 and got a lung removed. Through the years, the effects of that cancer was taking over and his stomach cancer was coming. During the filming of the Shootist he was too ill to film many times throughout production. He was struggling with the removal of his lung and the stomach cancer that was coming. He took the part because of his fight against cancer, in the 60s, and the fact he was still fighting cancer during filming. His fight against cancer is what lead him to taking the role. He knew his time living was coming to a close, because of his fight for cancer. So no matter when he was diagnosed, he took the role because he was dying from cancer. Once you take the lung out you aren't as good as new. Over time, the cancer will come around again and take over your body. The point is, he was extremely sick during filming of the shootist due to cancer and the results of it. He was dying and he knew it.

Mr. O'Brien had to get screened by myself when I was U.S. Secret Service and I recognized him right away. He was a lot shorter than I imagined, but I am 6'3" anyway. I got to meet a lot of television stars when I worked at the White House then. I only wished I could have seen all my other favorites back then. Still great memories .

John Wayne was not sick with cancer in real life during filming of The Shootist. He was in bad health because he battled cancer in 1964 and had a cancerous lung and 3 ribs removed. He lived rest of his life with one lung. During filming of The Shootist he was sick with influenza and nearly took him of filming. He had heart surgery in 1978 and didn’t get diagnosed again with stomach cancer until January of 1979 and it spread into his esophagus and liver. He had his stomach removed months later and died in June of 1979.

@Scottknode... respectfully I have to disagree. He had already lost a lung and two ribs to cancer. Cancer was already eating his stomach away at this point. I read interviews with the cast, and he had to have a doctor lie so he would get an insurance policy. He was already on oxygen, that he did not use during the shooting of his scenes. If I recall, Lauren Bacall said how tired and sick Wayne was, filming was greuling yet he never complained. In fact, The Duke himself said, either to Harry Morgan or Jimmy Stewart, the irony of this film isn't lost on me. He was quite sick, this film was his Swan Song.

My wife never liked John Wayne, but I convinced her back in 1976 to see the movie with me. At the end of the movie, she was crying as she was so sad for his fate and the condition he was in; but more importantly, she acknowledged what a great acting job he did in his final movie. I guess The Academy figured one Oscar for Best Actor was enough for Wayne for True Grit years earlier, but he definitely deserved one for The Shootist and The Searchers.

Exactly my thoughts in regard to the Oscar: The Searchers and The Shootist! I've watched The Shootist around 20 times in my 29 years. Every time at the end my eyes are wet since I first saw it as a youth. The Searchers was his best acting in a technical sense, but The Shootist was his best acting in a totally trancendent way. Here he combined everything in one, from his screen persona over character acting to myths and de-mystification. John Wayne himself felt he had been overlooked for a nomination due to the studio not supporting the movie enough. And to this day he is an underappreciated character actor.
That nod of approval as he tosses the gun....god, such a great scene.

Paul Simmons he was not dying of cancer, The Shootist was filmed and released in 1976. John Wayne was diagnosed with stomach cancer in January of 1979 and died June 11th 1979. He had Lung cancer previously in 1964 and had a cancerous lung and three ribs removed and lived another 15 years cancer free although he had numerous other health issues including several bouts of influenza, pneumonia and heart issues along with breathing problems and had to use a oxygen tank when not filming in those 15 years.

@James Henderson not "diagnosed" but he had it. He got lung cancer in 1964 and got a lung removed. Through the years, the effects of that cancer was taking over and his stomach cancer was coming. During the filming of the Shootist he was too ill to film many times throughout production. He was struggling with the removal of his lung and the stomach cancer that was coming. He took the part because of his fight against cancer, in the 60s, and the fact he was still fighting cancer during filming. His fight against cancer is what lead him to taking the role. He knew his time living was coming to a close, because of his fight for cancer. So no matter when he was diagnosed, he took the role because he was dying from cancer. Once you take the lung out you aren't as good as new. Over time, the cancer will come around again and take over your body. The point is, he was extremely sick during filming of the shootist due to cancer and the results of it. He was dying and he knew it.

I was lucky enough to have had a dad who was a fan of The Duke. We went to the Drive-in theater to see “True Grit”. A 10 year old watching Rooster call out Lucky Ned Pepper after Pepper made that unfortunate comment about a one-eyed fat man. It doesn’t get any better.
Love John Wayne and used to watch Hugh O'Brien as Wyatt Earp on TV in the 50's-60's and later met Hugh O'Brien when he came to the White House in 1976 on an official meeting with the President. Mr. O'Brien had to get screened by myself when I was U.S. Secret Service and I recognized him right away. He was a lot shorter than I imagined, but I am 6'3" anyway. I got to meet a lot of television stars when I worked at the White House then. I only wished I could have seen all my other favorites back then. Still great memories .
Not really a Western fan but I loved this film when my dad who was a western fanatic said to watch it when I was a kid. What I loved was that Books chose to die on his birthday doing what he was legendary at and that's having a good shootout. What was more ironic was this was Wayne's final shootout in real life.
The Duke's Swan Song was also his best acting job.

He lived rest of his life with one lung. During filming of The Shootist he was sick with influenza and nearly took him of filming. He had heart surgery in 1978 and didn’t get diagnosed again with stomach cancer until January of 1979 and it spread into his esophagus and liver.

@Scottknode... respectfully I have to disagree. He had already lost a lung and two ribs to cancer. Cancer was already eating his stomach away at this point. I read interviews with the cast, and he had to have a doctor lie so he would get an insurance policy. He was already on oxygen, that he did not use during the shooting of his scenes. If I recall, Lauren Bacall said how tired and sick Wayne was, filming was greuling yet he never complained. In fact, The Duke himself said, either to Harry Morgan or Jimmy Stewart, the irony of this film isn't lost on me. He was quite sick, this film was his Swan Song.

I'm not a frequenter of such establishments but that is one beautiful saloon
Pulford waited for the other two to soften him up and still got dusted. What a cowardly snake.
Dang, Richie Cunningham just gunned down a bartender.

Actually, when you look at it, it was purely self-defense. You could see the bartender reloading, apparently to take care of Howard who witnessed him back-shooting the Duke.
One of his best in,my opinion. Thankyou,,,

Only the Duke could swagger through those swinging doors like that. Total boss.
My personal 4 all-time favorite Westerns : (1) UNFORGIVEN (2) TOMBSTONE (3) OPEN RANGE (4) THE SHOOTIST... the final shootout and Gillom's unspoken exchange with Books are priceless.

Diesen Mann, John Wayne, hätte ich mir als amerikanischen Präsidenten gewünscht, standfest, loyal, und ehrenvoll. Bye, Duke ,du warst der beste
*When J.B. Books (John Wayne) said "his final goodbye" to Bond (Lauren Becall) before heading out to his death, it was as though Mr. Wayne was saying "goodbye" to the world and his millions of fans!*

It turned out that way, but Wayne didn't intend The Shootist to be his last film. He found a script he wanted Ron Howard to act with him in, but his health began failing and he wasn't physically up to making movies any longer at that point. There would be no next film. Wayne's actual goodbye was his last appearance at the Oscars shortly before his death.
God bless the Duke where ever he is.
This reminds me of taping songs from the radio
I think it’s Wayne’s best picture.
What an ending though.
Thanks for posting this

@3:28 His facial expression is like you gotta be kidding me lol. 😄😄😄
ah yes when Hollywood made good movies, John Wayne was one of the best and the Shootist was one of his best.
I like the cameo of Mr. McFeely driving the trolley from The Neighborhood of Make-Believe .
JW was soo sick during the shooting of this movie, that before this final scene was shot, he had to be hospitalized for 2 weeks, so everything in this scene that he wasn't in, was shot, and when he was able to return, they shot his parts. 🐎🤠🇺🇸
Acting through great pain.

blindandwatching he wasn’t dying of cancer in real life he died of stomach cancer in 1979 and cancer free when filmed his scenes for The Shootist although he did have lung cancer and had cancerous lung and some ribs removed in 1964. He filmed his scenes for The Shootist in January of 1976 when was released in August of 1976 and wasn’t diagnosed with stomach cancer until 1979 and died that year.

Adrian Otero it was 1964 when he had lung cancer and had his lung removed and three ribs removed. I didn’t say it wasn’t a laughing matter. Wayne continued to have poor health rest of his life as had to rely on oxygen tank on set of movies to help breathe.

"The shootist (1976) was my next to last film toughguys (1986) was my last film with my cousin gregory-winslow (from to kill a mockingbird fame)".
I remember being shocked when I first saw this. Didn’t know Opie had it in him! Lol
Beautiful scene, excellent video
If you have high honor, John gets to watch the sun rise one last time and succumbs to his lumbago.
The part with Ron Howard breaks a nerve in everytime I watch this movie
great actors in this movie and Duke was so sick......
4:10 That was the shot Books was hoping would kill him but the dealer wasn't as good as he thought he was.
His last great movie and he went down a hero. I sat in a movie theater in RockSprings, Wyoming, and cried. I knew that he wasn't long for this world. How fitting Richard Boone and Hugh OBrien were in it. Ron Howard was a surprise, too. I have a house full of John Wayne memobillia, Around here we talk the talk and walk the walk. llle

Don't forget appearances by Lauren Bacall, Bill McKinney, Harry Morgan, James Stewart and Sheree North as well.
Just to add thete are sooo many extras that this film delivers apart from the duke and the great cast. It is america just opening up to modernity, saying that books is really a man of the past, but a noble past. Yes there is much myth about it but much thst is honest and brave. I see this movie all o er clint eastwoods unforgiven, with the attempt to write up and glamorise the wild west through "yellow" literature and the just about to boom popular adventure book market. A great film, as is liberty vallace where the duke plays a similar character; also kirk douglas in lonesome are the brave resonates too. Here endeth etc...amen!
