Note: Okay... While I've watched many a John Wayne movie, I've never watched Sands of Iwo Jima. However, it will be a toss up between McClintock and Hell Fighters. I'll have to see what the muse decides. Of course there is spanking in McClintock!
*squees & flails* Those are my two* most favoriitest John Wayne movies EVAHR!!! Maureen O'Hara + John Wayne = Hilarious Action/Romance!
Spanking is good. *nods* Then again, Hellfighters has the chance of the fireplace "oil-well" suddenly flairing up and causing burns requiring TLC. Writer's choice -- I know I will be pleased either way.
*Third place goes to Donovon's Reef. If you've bener seen it, you really must. Lee Marvin, Cesar Romero, and Dorothy Lamour in tropical island paradise. Plus John Wayne playing daddy to three kids is ADORABLE. (Like Gibbs, he goes from gruff to mush in the presence of kids.)
"What the hell were you thinking, Tony!?" Gibbs' voice rang out over the din of the fire that had swirled back to life.
"I was thinking that YOU were going to get yourself killed out there because you have to take a chance on everything!" Tony shouted back. "You knew we weren't going to be able to cap it and you went ahead anyway!"
"We didn't cap it because you interrupted and damn near got us both killed!" Gibbs was now nose to nose with Tony.
"Maybe I should just start my own business like I said I would at the last job! Then I wouldn't have to stand by and watch you kill yourself!" Tony turned and stormed back to his trailer, leaving a trail of gear behind him.
"Like hell you will," Gibbs ground out as he stormed after his man, picking up a sturdy looking piece of flat board along the way.
Gibbs and Tony acting out (or role-playing) one of John Wayne's movies. Bonus points if it's "Sands of Iwo Jima."

They fought oil well fires :)
I've loved the movie since I was a kid.
