Unfortunately his work was mostly (not completely) the Hollywood version of the west (mostly fictionalized and historically incorrect), not denigrating it just pointing out a fact, he was an actor and Hollywood is in the business of entertainment.

Stalin ordered John Wayne’s assassination. Nikita Khrushchev rescinded the order after Stalin died. When the story came out it was reported that Stalin was so angered by John Wayne’s anti-Communism he ordered Wayne’s murder. In addition to Stalin, none other than Mao Tse Tung was putting out contracts:

Wayne also told Mr Munn about an attempt to kill him by an enemy sniper while he was visiting the troops in Vietnam in 1966. "One of the snipers was captured," said Mr Munn, "and said there was a price on John's head, put there by [China's communist leader] Mao Tse Tung."​

Hello, thank you for the information the first movie of John Wayne is The Drop Kick is a film directed by Millard Webb, released in 1927.

From 1928, Morrison ( John Wayne) decides not to go to university. No longer the scholarship granted by the football team, he can not afford the courses. He returns to the Fox and became props for three years. "I was a carpenter, laborer, electrician, carpenter, painter, upholsterer. I've done everything I know all the problems of business and tricks to solve


Wyatt Earp finally settled in 1906 with Josephine Vidal in the Sonoran Desert. He went to Hollywood, where he met many players who turned the first westerns. There are particular met a young actor Marion Morrison, who became famous later under the name of John Wayne.

They met very briefly

On 13 January 1929, Wyatt Earp died in his small apartment in Los Angeles
