Yet despite his popularity and success, he was unfairly dismissed as a "B" movie actor lacking elegance, creativity, range, and depth. This book challenges conventional wisdom and reevaluates Wayne's life and vital cinematic legacy, ultimately placing the man known as "Duke" among a select and brilliant pantheon of "actor auteurs"--artists whose consistency of style in their work reflects their personal creative vision.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 791.43028 Wayne El Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Biography B Wayne El Checked In Add Copy to MyList
