John Wayne finally stated the obvious.
Lane: I got a saddle that's older than you are, Mrs. Lowe.
I have watched a lot of mid 50's westerns and have seen lead male stars playing along side the lead female stars knowing full well the male is 25 to 35 years older than the female..........OMG some would qualify as Grand Daughter!! Randolph Scott was probably the worst serial offender in this genre (although I could name hundreds that would also qualify....I guess this was Hollywood during that era. That is why it was so refreshing to hear the above dialog in "The Train Robbers" after Ann-Margaret doing the "come-on" to Wayne and he replied the above. John Wayne was no innocent in his prior movies, as he played the romantic lead to several statutory leading ladies (AKA Angie Dickinson RIO BRAVO, etc). I love that Wayne finally got it before he passed. share
