John Wayne Wasn’t a Fan of One Classic Film – My Blog

American film legend John Wayne did love a lot of movies, even his own. But there was one classic flick that The Duke did not like at all.

Consider him not a fan for The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. And John Wayne was part of the cast, too. IDMb offers up a synopsis of the film: “A senator returns to a western town for the funeral of an old friend and tells the story of his origins.” Toss in that James Stewart was also in this film, and Wayne director John Ford was behind the camera.
What gives, Duke? Let’s get some information about his distaste for the movie with some help from the British publication Express.
John Wayne Could Not Keep Taking Constant ‘Needling’ From John Ford

Wayne and Ford would get involved in a back-and-forth on the movie set. Ford reportedly would shame John Wayne. But co-star Woody Strode said that Wayne would heap all of his frustration on him. Strode would recall that Ford “kept needling Duke about his failure to make it as a football player.” He even compared The Duke to Strode a former NFL player.
More grief for John Wayne included Ford mocking the actor for not enlisting in World War II. That sent a heap of guilt onto Wayne’s shoulders.
How did he feel about all of this mess? In Michael Munn’s book, John Wayne – The Man Behind The Myth, Strode said Ford’s criticisms “really p***ed Wayne off, but he would never take it out on Ford.”
No Way Would Wayne Let Ford Know About Being Upset Since Director Made Him a StarWhy? Well, Ford had made Wayne a movie star. Strode said that Wayne “ended up taking it out on me.” For example, both actors filmed an exterior shot on a horse-drawn cart.
It was John Wayne who was close to losing control of the horses. Strode tried to help him, but The Duke knocked him away. The horses stopped and Wayne actually tried to punch Strode. Ford yelled, “Don’t hit him Woody! We need him!”
That led to Wayne telling Strode, “We gotta work together. We both gotta be professionals.” Ford filmed other Westerns with John Wayne in color like The Searchers and She Wore a Yellow Ribbon. This 1962 film was shot in black and white.
Cinematographer William H Clothier said, “There was one reason and one reason only… Paramount was cutting costs. Otherwise, we would have been in Monument Valley or Brackettville and we would have had color stock. Ford had to accept those terms or not make the film.” And it’s considered a film classic, too, with the Gene Pitney-sung theme song, too.

Can you solve this puzzle?

### Puzzle Details:
1. **Frank says:** “I didn’t do it.”
2. **John says:** “Frank is lying.”
3. **Peter says:** “Frank is telling the truth.”

### Analyzing the Statements:
Let’s analyze the implications of their statements:

– If **Frank** is telling the truth (he didn’t do it):
– Then **John** is lying (since he claims Frank is lying).
– If John is lying, that means **Frank** is indeed innocent.
– **Peter** is telling the truth by claiming Frank is honest.

Thus, if Frank is telling the truth:
– Frank = Innocent
– John = Guilty (because he lied)
– Peter = Innocent

– If **Frank** is lying (he did it):
– Then **John** is telling the truth (as he says Frank is lying).
– If John is telling the truth, then Frank is indeed guilty.
– **Peter** is lying (as he claims Frank is telling the truth).

Thus, if Frank is lying:
– Frank = Guilty
– John = Innocent
– Peter = Guilty (because he lied)

### Summary of Scenarios:
1. **Frank is Innocent:** (Frank: Truth, John: Lie, Peter: Truth)
2. **Frank is Guilty:** (Frank: Lie, John: Truth, Peter: Lie)

### Conclusion:
– If Frank is innocent, John’s statement indicates he is guilty, which means Peter must be innocent.
– If Frank is guilty, then John is innocent but Peter must now be guilty.

**In both scenarios, we can determine that John cannot be guilty at the same time as Frank.**

Thus, the only consistent solution appears to be:
– **Frank is guilty.**
– **John is innocent.**
– **Peter is lying.**

Therefore, only one man is guilty, which is **Frank.**

Sydney Sweeney hits back at horrific body shaming comments on viral pictures with incredible response

Sydney Sweeney has posted an Instagram video which included body shaming comments

Sydney Sweeney has hit back at horrific body shaming comments she’s received online with an incredible response.

For famous faces, social media can be an extremely toxic place, and it’s why we’ve seen some celebrities reduce their online presence as a result.

Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney has become the subject of body shaming comments in recent times, and she responded to these on Instagram in the best possible way.

The actor posted a shot clip that began with screenshots of a bunch of body shaming comments she’s received online, including some calling her ‘quite frumpy’, ‘very chunky’ and ‘tubby’.

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell discuss chemistry
After many screenshots of horrible comments were shown on screen, the video cut to Sweeney in her training gear at the gym.

The video cut to a sign that said ‘hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard’ as Sweeney worked hard with a trainer, struck a punching bag and even flipped a large tire in what looked like an extremely intense workout.

Many have flocked to the comments section of the Instagram video to praise Sweeney for her response to the trolls.

“I will never understand the hate in people‘s hearts when it comes to leaving comments like this,” one person commented.

A second added: “Ngl why do people feel entitled to talk about someone’s body specially someone you don’t personally know,” while a third remarked: “No one has the right or reason to make comments on anyones body, ever.”

Meanwhile, Lili Reinhart penned: “It’s always wild to see people publicly out themselves as pieces of shit with comments like that. You look incredible and your dedication to your project is very inspiring.”

The video actually concluded with the name ‘Christy Martin’ being shown on the screen, which is a nod to Sweeney’s upcoming biopic where she plays a famed female boxer.

Boxing fans will likely know Martin is a is a former professional boxer who earned herself the WBC female super welterweight title in 2009.

Sweeney has spoken previously about her process of getting into her movie character, telling The Los Angeles Times in March that she’s a ‘very hands-on collaborator’.

“I like being able to give ideas, be a part of it, help come up with solutions. It just changes the whole process,” she said.

Sweeney continued: “It’s so hard for me now to be on a set and not be able to help in any type of way and be able to take action. And being able to actually have a voice and have a valued opinion—it means so much.”
