John Wayne’s final on-screen role brought his career full circle with another Western hero.
The Big Picture John Wayne has earned his status as the King of Hollywood Westerns with his nearly unbelievable quantity of outlaw stories.
In 'The Shootist,' John Wayne Gives a Matured Performance Wayne had worked with an established series of directors throughout his career, but the grittiness that Siegel created was certainly a change of pace from some of his recent films, such as the heartfelt family film The Cowboys.
John Wayne's J.B. Books Is a Terrific Character Despite all of its disturbing moments, The Shootist is also one of John Wayne’s most heartfelt roles. He shows a vulnerability that hadn’t been seen in Wayne's previous films, as his ego was notorious. Perhaps age had softened his heart because Books feels the physical toll that his work is placing on him.
Despite the similarities within the stories, The Shootist is not identical to the film it's most often compared to – Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven, which at the time appeared to be Eastwood’s final Western. While both films revolve around older gunslingers coming to terms with the decisions that they’ve made and reckoning with those that they left behind, the subtle differences between the two characters represent how far apart Wayne and Eastwood were as stars.
