The Cast Credit Index · 1907–1979
John Wayne
The western, personified
Wayne's own name almost never survives on a transfer label. What does survive are the pictures — Stagecoach above all — restaged for the microphone.
0 named credits · 7 adaptations of their pictures
Named on the transfer
Credits the archive itself asserts
Every recording below carries John Wayne's name in its own label, as deposited. No credit here was inferred.
Nothing on the shelf names John Wayne. That is the honest answer rather than a guess — and for several stars on this index it is the whole story.
Their pictures on the air
Films of theirs the anthologies restaged
Lux Radio Theatre, Screen Guild Theater, Academy Award Theater and their neighbours existed to put motion pictures at a microphone. These are adaptations of John Wayne's pictures that survive in the archive. Sometimes the film's own players took the parts; sometimes the network cast whoever was in town. Where the transfer does not say, neither do we.
