A belated thank-you for your wise and most appropriate comment here.
I loved this scene, and, I miss John Wayne. He was truly larger than life for some reason; wasn't a great actor at all; I think is was because of just one thing - substance. The man was imbued with great substance. |
Bobby Tony's idea of Labor Day (plagiarized from 1963 John Wayne McLintock)back when life was simpler I guess.
Devlin Warren: Just one minute, Mr. McLintock. My father died last month, that's how come we don't have a homestead. I've got a mother, a little sister to feed. I need that job badly. George Washington McLintock: What's your name? Devlin Warren: Devlin Warren. George Washington McLintock: Well, you've got a job. Go see my home ranch forman. He's over by the corral. Devlin Warren: Step down off that carriage, mister! George Washington McLintock: [Swings and McLintock and gets thrown to the ground] Hold that hog leg! I've been punched many a time in my life but never for hirin' anyone. Devlin Warren: I don't know what to say. Never begged before. Turned my stomach. I suppose I should have been grateful that you gave me the job. George Washington McLintock: Gave? Boy, you've got it all wrong. I don't give jobs I hire men. Drago: You intend to give this man a full day's work, don'tcha boy? Devlin Warren: You mean you're still hirin' me? Well, yes, sir, I certainly deliver a fair day's work. George Washington McLintock: And for that I'll pay you a fair day's wage. You won't give me anything and I won't give you anything. We both hold up our heads. Is that your plug? Devlin Warren: Yes sir. George Washington McLintock: Well, hop on him and we'll go get your gear. |
