    What John Wayne movie should my son and I watch next?

    My boy is about 7 weeks old. As a part of his education (and me needing something to watch - or doze off to - when he needs to be held in the middle of the night) we've so far watched El Dorado (my favorite), Hatari, Wake of the Red Witch, and we're almost through The Sons of Katie Elder.

    What should we watch next?

    I'm a fan of any John Wayne/Maureen O'Hara film. I grew up watching McClintock! a lot since it is my mom's favorite.

    My favorite is "The Quiet Man". Have a poster my son bought me for "Hondo" up in my office at work. "Donovan's Reef" is good light comedy with no gun fire so won't wake the young'un. My avatar is from "the Searchers".

    "The Quiet Man" was also John Wayne's favorite. It's near the top of my list too.

    "The Horse Soldiers" was filmed in and near Natchitoches.

    Micklintock was my first! Had it on VHS. I loved Quiet man a lot too. Of the ones listed, BiG Jake would be a great one. I took my 6 week old to the Spring games as part of his education!

    The boy hasn't "seen" it yet, but I've watched The Quiet Man too recently to want to watch it again. Same for The Searchers.

    You can doze off while he watches.

    At some point he needs to watch most of them. Especially Sand of Iwo Jima for multiple reasons.

    As I have grown older I have realized that it wasn't his best but when I was a kid Big Jake was my favorite Wayne flick. In a few years he might like that one.

    She wore a Yellow Ribbon. True Grit. Green Beret. Quiet Man Sands of Iwo Jima. Really any John Wayne movie is mighty fine with me!
