Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Circus World
Searched a long time for this Classic John Wayne Movie. Happy to find it to be able to add this to my Collection

The film also features Rita Hayworth, ... Read More

Now about my copy: A region 2 from Spain. It includes among the extras (only text extras) a Spanish film critic criticizing Mr. Wayne -but not for the way he does his role- for getting rid of Frank Capra, as he was the original director for this work, and bringing his pal Henry Hathaway in. And then the critic proceeds to award him three derogatory names. Well, Mr. Wayne isn't ... Read More
