- Biographie:
- John Wayne, pseudonyme de Marion Mitchell Morrison (né Marion Robert Morrison), est un acteur, réalisateur et producteur américain né le 26 mai 1907 à Winterset (Iowa) et mort le 11 juin 1979 à Los Angeles. Au cours de ses cinquante ans de carrière, il a joué dans près de 180 films, notamment des films policiers, des films de guerre et quelques comédies romantiques ; mais c'est dans ses nombreux westerns que John Wayne s'est réellement imposé, particulièrement sous la direction de deux réalisateurs : John Ford (La Chevauchée fantastique en 1939, Le Massacre de Fort Apache et Le fils du désert en 1948, La Charge héroïque en 1949, Rio Grande en 1950, La Prisonnière du désert en 1956 ou encore L'Homme qui tua Liberty Valance en 1962) et Howard Hawks (La Rivière rouge en 1948, Rio Bravo en 1959, El Dorado en 1966 ou Rio Lobo en 1970). Il a tourné également plusieurs films sous la direction d'Henry Hathaway, dont Cent dollars pour un shérif en 1969, qui lui valut en 1970 l'Oscar du meilleur acteur (l'unique Oscar de sa carrière). En 1960, il passe derrière la caméra pour réaliser une fresque historique d'envergure, Alamo, relatant les derniers jours de Davy Crockett et ses compagnons lors de la guerre d'indépendance du Texas. Huit ans plus tard, il a co-réalise Les Bérets verts (1968), film engagé justifiant l'intervention américaine au Viêt Nam. Ses deux réalisations ont reflété l'engagement personnel de John Wayne, républicain et ardent patriote. Classé 13e plus grande star de légende par l'American Film Institute en 1999, John Wayne a été certainement un des acteurs les plus représentatifs du western, une incarnation à lui seul de l'Amérique conquérante. Surnommé « The Duke » (« le Duc »), il reste encore aujourd'hui, grâce à ses films, le symbole d'une certaine virilité. Il a interprété ce rôle d'homme viril, dur, solitaire et un peu machiste tout au long de sa carrière, ce qui lui fit déclarer : « J'ai joué John Wayne dans tous mes films et ça m'a plutôt pas mal réussi. »
