(john wayne) john ford was very careful in handling his actors, to make sure that no matter what theyo, that it helps to create an emotion in the audience. cause after all, good pictures are about people. and if he can get the emotions out of his actors, it's naturally going to affect the audience. (lindsay anderson) ford had been a director for over twenty years. and had learned how to work with actors, get performances and to achieve reality in terms of character. i watched you with that baby, that other woman's baby. it looked, well.... well, i still got a ranch across the border. and it's a nice place. a real nice place. trees and grass and water. there's a cabin, half-built. a man could live there... with a woman. will you go? but you don't know me. you don't know who i am. i know all i want to know. (lindsay anderson) dialogue is important, but there are many sequences in "stagecoach," which are purely told through the image. particularly, say, the final chase. (gunfire) (lindsay anderson) a very interesting sequence. it disobeys all the rules. there's no left to right, and righ

i must look like john wayne in the middle of texas bringing cows through the desert. [laughter] we were bringing it in a truck and it is the same, but modern times. [laughter] before that, we have been in many other places. haiti, often. nobody came to see what we were doing but we were not doing for anybody to see it. we were feeding people in need in remote areas. this gave me experience. know if washington is aware but some of my favorite people in the world are from the southe baptist church. the southern baptist church has the most amazing network over the last 60 years that, every time there was a tornado or hurricane or anything, the people that will be feeding americans in need, will be the men and women of the southern baptist church. they are the people that inspired me to keep doing what we are doing. those men and women are amazing.

we hear so much from the early movies from "gone with the wind" to the john wayne movies about the southern gentleman and their behavior, how do they balance against 20-year-old farm boys from illinois and michigan? mr trudeau: it is getting to be a harder war. in the march to the sea, one area where you have to be careful are the stories of the fate of union foragers. the confederates tell it that they sweep them down by the hundreds and kill them. i look at the records and there are certainly some that are caught and are clearly murdered, but a lot of them, no. but then i realized, if you are a union officer, those are good stories to tell because they are going to keep the men from wandering too far away from your control, if they think they are going to get murdered over the hill. so they are not discouraging these stories. but by the time the carolinas campaign gets going, it ratchets up to the point where sherman actually has to order a retaliatory execution of confederate prisoners, a confederate prisoner, to stop the capture and murder of his foragers. not in the march to the sea, b

john wayne or jimmy stewart were conservative republicans. there were also want tdy, why see you when had a movie coming out for five minutes at a pop? they didn't have social media. they didn't have viral videos. it's a different world now. johnny carson, , you talk about what he said the night before around the water cooler, and that was it. the next he might talk about what he said the following night. now things live forever online, can you imagine a a dean martin posted it on television? that was all about making you laugh but in a very reverent way tragic it would be rated as a hate crime. >> host: it would be. don rickles would be up on charges. you just can't have fun anymore. i want to, you spent a lot of time talking about the splc, , e southern poverty law center. there is a quote that you lift from them which to me shocked and i want you to comment on three different levels. the quote is of this, i'm biased incident a speech or expression motivated in whole, part of bias or prejudice. it differs from a hate crime in that no crimin

john wayne gaither was a nice man before he murdered 28 people.d a good reputation in the country. these women that are coming out saying, it is just boys being boys, i challenge them to go to their daughters, teenage granddaughters and tell them, that is ok. we have a culture in this company -- country that is disgusting. when male rape victims come forward, there is acceptance and empathy. there is no such thing for women. it comes through why didn't you do this, why did you wait, etc. women need to ask this question right now. the pedophile priest thing was in the media and everyone has embraced those men and had acceptance. what about women? we are 51% of this country. it is ridiculous we are not our sister's keeper. we need to do better. in rockford, illinois. republican. caller: how are you? host: doing well. caller: i find it hard to believe in the united states of america we are actually guilty before being proved innocent. a 30ave the two ladies in something year span that all of a sudden president lee came coincidentally came forward say
