- Our McCandles Family Reunion show LIVE from the Cowboy Channel Justin Boots studio as we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the release of Big Jake (1971). We were lucky to have Patrick Wayne, Ethan Wayne, and Chris Mitchum with a live studio audience.
The three actors reflect on their time on set and take questions from the studio audience.
Patrick Wayne discusses John Wayne’s presence on set and his work ethic, how John Wayne won the Dog from the film in a poker game, and working with his brothers and dad on the film. Chris Mitchum discusses the casting process and how he was honored when Duke asked him to play his son. Ethan Wayne remembers taking directions from his dad as an 8 year old on set.
This is a really fun episode and we were so lucky to get these three actors together to celebrate this great John Wayne film!
Who would play John Wayne in a remake of Big Jake?

John Wayne was my hero because of his core values. Treat people the way you want to be treated
I agree with Ethan his dad helped direct this nation of ours in a good way .
No one could ever play your dad on a remake of this. No one has the chops to play his role. John Wayne gave us in the world a person to emulate, in a good way.
I remember Maureen O'Hara when she went to Congress and petitioned Congress for the medal of freedom for the Duke, it was fantastic to watch her, she was just a strong-willed as the Duke and made me proud to be an American...
I miss John Wayne and the truth he brought with him everywhere.. The country has lost its Way, its Culture, and it's Truth...
Couldn't agree more, with you. There are times I feel that I let the Duke, and the Nation down, by not standing up and being more active against the Marxism & Socialism that has destroyed our Culture, and severely Divided Nation. 😪
Actually it was "1 flavor of" or "1 interpretation of".
I adore John Wayne, but all can never desire the same brand of (cookie, coffee, soda, or Life living style)
Our favorite is merely that, our style.
I admire a number of the era's actors, but have a totally different perspective, politically, religiously, spiritually, but the key is "agreeing" on individual Freedom and personal Liberties.
Best Thoughts ...
What culture?
True blessing to still have Patrick and Chris whom are in their eighties and Ethan talking about the priceless behind the scenes stories of a fantastic movie. Thank you.
Big jake had the best character intro I have ever seen. Duke looking down the rifle barrel.
And to the wayne family , thank you , thank you , thank you !
I’m from Northwest Ontario Canada a town that borders with Minnesota.
This is how I got hooked on being a big John Wayne fan and at that time I didn’t know to many other kids teenagers that watch his movies like I did.
Growing up in the early eighties we had three Channels on a good day we could get on our used 30ft tv antenna coming out of Duluth Minnesota.
One of the channels I think was called KDHL Duluth Minnesota that ran a show called
“The Matinée Money Movie” hosted by Ken Shapen think every day around 4pm.
I would watch if I didn’t have too many chores that day after I got home from School.
We lived out in the country.
So anyways they would host all the great classics and the first time I seen “Big Jake” I loved what a great movie!
The “Cowboys” I think I actually I seen first. What Great Movies and another true John Wayne classic. Absolutely loved them both!
I think “Big Jake” it was the setting the turn of the century when old meets new I thought was pretty cool.
A Luger versus a Colt. A Harley versus a Horse a Winchester and a bolt action with Scope and it was still a Western in every way.
The west was still alive!
John Wayne’s played characters that you looked up to and the type of guy that got respect because they earned it through their blood sweat and tears.
We all knew guys like this growing up a lot of guys looked up to
They worked hard played hard and was tough as nails.
Mine was my father.
That’s what’s missing in today’s Society on Screen a real mans characters with real values for young men to look up too.
Remind us where we came from.
John Wayne was and is one of the greatest on the big screen and every movie was a very clean show
Thank you Ethan. Big Jake ranks towards the top of your father's best movies. Patrick and Christopher Mitchum were great together as the sons. Of course there is the iconic line " I thought your dead.. Not hardly"
Chris Mitchum is a great guy.
Anything to do with John Wayne - I LOVE! My final thought is Mr. Wayne would be so proud of his family carrying on tradition and his legacy... I enjoyed this immensely!! Wish they would have spoke a little more re Robert Mitchum, another great actor!
I JUST WATCHED "WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE" AND A FEW DAYS BEFORE I WATCHED "THE SHOOTIST" FOR MORE TIMES THAN I WILL EVER REMEMBER! IT NEVER GETS OLD! JOHNY WAYNE WAS MY HERO WHEN I WAS A CHILD AND HE STILL IS TODAY AT AGE OF 68! *LONG LIVE THE DUKE!*
My dad owned a grandson to Cochise, the Alpaloosa Duke rode in El Dorado. Dad was a huge fan. My dad's business partner in his cattle business, knew Duke. Unfortunately dad never met him. By the way, The Colt Duke carried in this film sold for over half a million dollars 7 months ago at auction. Showed how much Duke is still admired.
I remember the first time I seen Big Jake in the theater. When John Wayne was introduce in the film, You can hear the whole audience say "Oh S###"!!! And cheers went out.
My wife and I were going to have twins and she had the name Jordan for one of our boy’s. She said “Albert, you need to give our son a name.” After 3 weeks of thinking I was watching ‘Bib Jake.’ I said “Jacob will be his name. Our twins turned 33 years old this year.”
Thanks a million Ethan for the Gritcast series. Really enjoy all shows. Great job!!
Thank you Ethan, I've been waiting to see Patrick and Chris on stage once again
Thanks. I have always thought John Wayne looking down the barrel of the gun with his aged eye was one of the gr..no the greatest film making ever done.
I love this whole program!! I am very sad hear how John Wayne was treated during Vietnam. That is terrible and for his sons and friends aswell. John Wayne was a true American 🇺🇸
And they still hate him today!!! Sad!!
this used to be my favorite as a kid but since im Ethan's age now too i just loved em all and like everyone else loved the DUKE. THANKS to all of you 💯
My first John Wayne movie, loved it and was hooked for life!
Total enjoyed the show, thank you ! I am grabbing some bacon on my biscuit and I am ready to go .
I Hope you all do more of these videos.
John Wayne was one of the Great Influences in my life as far as Personal Values and Work ethics.
My Sincerest Best Wishes from Montana M.H.
Jim Davis is absolutely one cool dude
Jim Davis was in Eldorado, Big Jake, Rio Lobo,
What a great show and a chance for the three men to share their experiences, respect & love of John Wayne. John was a great American & we needed his type of larger than life image. Kudos of this show & network to honor him in such a way! 🇺🇸❤🇺🇸
One of the greatest opening scenes ever!
It’s long overdue. Time to put BATJAC in production and these cowboys back in the saddle !
Big Jake is my all time favorite movie. My oldest son is named Jacob, my youngest son is Jon, and my dog is named Duke. ALL because of this movie. LOVE the "Duke"! ❤️ 🧡 💛
Doggone it Ethan, you got me choked up with that intro. God bless you all, for keeping my greatest Role Model and Hero, your dad the Duke, alive and well in all our hearts! 👍👍 5⭐
Wow!
I would drive all the way out there just to see Johnny Yuma's cap! That thing would be have a place of honor in my family!
Enjoyable discussion and memories ♥️
Hondo and Seachers the best ever! Great to see you guys so down to earth you are.
One more She Wore A Yellow Ribbon, the cast and stunts Wonderful!
Made it to the 50th anniversary of True Grit at the John Wayne Museum in Winterset. You can tell from my name what I think of Big Jake.
Mr. Wayne was someone to emulate. And I have for the whole of my life thus far. One of my favorite comments to make, "When appropriate"...." That'll be the day"! Remember? 😉
Or like in Eldorado. Any more questions you want to ask. That's my favourite.
A little late watching this. When I sat my son down to watch this for his first time he was 6 or 7. When the scene of Jake Hitting his son for calling him Daddy my son looked up at me and said Daddy he acts like you! To this day I take that as a compliment and he loves calling me Daddy then laugh with a big grin.
My son, who is now in his mid 30's, called me Daddy since he was a kid. A couple of years ago I mentioned to him I've noticed that he never addresses by name anymore. No more "Hey Daddy!". He said that he feels like a little kid calling me "daddy". I always loved it because I was....daddy! So we agreed that he could address us as mom and dad but I still slip from time to time and mention my wife as "mommy" to him. I do miss being Daddy though.
I really enjoyed this....thank you!
Big Jake was my favorite Duke movie.
Growing up, I had three heroes.
My Pa,John Wayne, and Richard Petty.
I'm in Houston, Tx. as of now. But I'm a transplant from Louisville, Ky. From a young age, I can remember having a horse. There were times I'd get off the school bus, jump on my horse. No saddle No bridle grab a hand full of horse main give the horse a shot with my heels and off we'd go for several hundred yards to a corner of fence to a full blown stop. Those were the days.
As for westerns shows, I'd stop by my DAD'S and he'd be watching a westerns. I'd sit on the floor beside him and watch a westerns with him. I'll watch a John Wayne westerns in a drop of a hat. Or anything that is having to be about John Wayne. The Shooters I like the most. I feel like that's how the Dude would have like to leave this world. Just my opinion!
But he's first Starring role as a actor. Brings out his own story of his career as a actor and the personality he became to be known as.
Loved watching the wayne boys and chris mitchum. Loved big jake. Love john Wayne ❤
@John Wayne can you get hold of the scripts to all of John Wayne's cowboy films, and convert them into a series of novels for us all to enjoy? I'm sure there are plenty of us still around, to make it a viable project. 🤠 & 💯❣
Gosh, this only has 1000 views, it should have a million views, really great content Scott from Arizona
I've been posting this link on every social app I have... People have forgotten where we come from...
RIP Michael Wayne and Toni Wayne LaCava.
Loved this!
Awesome 👌
We didn't have much money but we never missed a John Wayne movie. One year we had an old pickup and the back was filled with kids. My mom said thats the only time she had quiet time. Everyone loved him.
"Big Jake" was the first John Wayne movie I saw on the big screen. WOW! Such an influence for this Adventurer.
It seems strange listening to those nice guys talking about the Duke as somebody long gone. That's wrong, he's alive, he will always be, as long as I have a dvd player and will be watching his movies on and on and on. John Wayne is the best of them all rip. And his friend Robert Mitchum is also one of the best, rip too
Yes two of the best ever. Robert Mitchum & John Wayne. Have watched Big Jake, McClintock, Eldorado, Rio Bravo, Rio Lobo, Chisum, Undefeated, Horse Soldiers. True Grit, Rooster Coburn, War wagon, Cowboy, The Searcher, Three God fathers, Cahill us Marshall, Sons of Kate Alder, Hundo, The shootis, She wore a yellow ribbon, Forth Apache, Liberty Valance, Longest Day, Tall in the Saddle, and loads more over and over and over never get tired of watching John Wayne or Robert Mitchum.
Loved this.
I really enjoyed this video.
Loved this ..would love to get over to Fort Worth ..🤩🏴
She had Elizabeth Taylor with her at Congress !!! Both Ladies endorsed JW for that Medal!!!
That was great !
"Pearls of Wisdom that stand the test of time" Ethan. Lives set into motion by a firm hand..
I love hearing storys about them on set with the Duke should have one with Robert Mitchum he is another great actor I like.
Ethan your right each of his movies had life lessons .
This was fun to watch. Would have been even cooler if they'd gotten Bobby Vinton, who played Jeff, the third son and Little Jake's father to be in it. Of all his leading ladies, Maureen O'Hara is by far my favorite. She played with Duke 5 times, and they were perfect together. Rio Grande, The Quiet Man (my favorite), Wings of the Eagles, McClintock!, and Big Jake- no woman was better across from him.
5 great films with radically different lead characters going through very different experiences.
Yet the fast majority of the smooth brained Hollywood weasels insist John Wayne couldn't act 🙄
Love John Wayne, and Robert Mitchum was one of the greatest actors to ever grace the screen. Also love Patrick, and Chris.
Yes great film Eldorado with John Wayne & Robert Mitchum and all the rest of the cast and crew in that made that film.
Love this interview. Thanks so much for sharing!
I love him ❤ n I love all of his movies❤❤
Look at the beautiful audience
This is great to hear about Lassie and Laddie!! I loved all of those movies aswell.
Dog was awesome.
I miss seeing your Dad in movies and they don’t make them like your Dad did . I was told when I was a kid by my mother that you’re Dad Cattle Company owned Grandparent old Place in Kansas for a while but I don’t know what years
Interesting how much Christopher Mitchum resembles his father as he gets older.
I'm a novelist and I have always wondered why the movie didn't end with the family reunon at the rance. A great chance for O'Hara to eat a little crow and accept the Duke back and the audience to get the payodff of that personal dynamic and what the entire movie had moved toward from the beginning. If anyone knows whether it was a script thing or O'Hara wasn't available plwase let me know.
Why didn't you call her by her first name. Why so ignorant against Maureen Ò Hara.
Sorry. First I didn't refer to anybody by their first name so it wasn't to slight Maureen O'Hara. Secondly I don't think you understand the defintion of "ignorant". By Webster's definition, IGNORANT means to be without knowledge, unknowing. It would seem that in the attempt to slander me, you were the ignorant one.
Great
One of my favorites movie's. Named my second son Jacob. My first is John Ethan.
The liberals are also why John Wayne didn't win a lot of awards! It was super political back then as well. He was man enough and popular enough with the conservative audience that they couldn't stop him or change his mindset. He was awesome!
I couldn't even imagine what Duke would have to say about what has happened to his beloved America! I don't think that he could have ever even imagined it. Neither did I but.....here we are!
For the record: 50:24 - Chris Mitchum, hollywood blacklisting, that it was practiced by the liberals in hollywood. Not to forget that these same threw the blame on the actual victim right after it. Very important piece of a speech.
I love this seen
man, that was great.
❤
A little bit of irony John Wayne died of cancer from an atomic bomb you have the greatest cowboy of all time died from anatomic bomb my first wife and my last girlfriend both died from downwinders from the same atomic bomb
1st Time On View & Hearing This Segment. Have Heard John Duke Wayne + Roy Rogers DO AMERICA 🇺🇸 Patriotic Commercials. Hearing Watching Exchanged Memories. Thought Came: John And Roy Would Be Walking With MAGA Jus Soli American Patriots. INTO 06 January 2021 Would Never Have Taken Place.
Good video from Montana
Big Jake is my father’s day movie. It has a father working with his two sons. You can’t beat that. It also teaches how to deal with terrorist.
Chris Mitchum; if you know the name "Michael Halliday" from Arizona, please reach out to me.
"Not Hardly" !
Where are these podcasts filmed ? It would be nice to attend them live.
HELP!!! I've written to Ethan Wayne a number of times over recent years, to various addresses. Some come back No Such Address, and others that don't come back, I assume they got somewhere near Ethan. But I've never gotten a response. Is he so locked up doing things his way, he can't listen to something a whole lot more productive and successful? Is he so busy that he can't be bothered to listen to a better way? A way to positively save lives?
Huh?

At 5'8" Maureen was a 'big woman'???? at JUST under 6', I find that gigglesome.... (though my grandmother was the tallest woman in her home town at 5'8" all through the 40's and 50's.
Big Jake was a super good movie, there is no way to remake it and do it justice (don't mess with the best). True Grit and Red River, the remakes even though they had good actors were no where near as good as the original.
Watched True Grit Jeff Bridges. Not a patch on the original.
@ 19:59 🔑 (truly a subject that the greater masses of people could benefit from practicing). "Mind Your Own Business", including the Judging of others with Fox News, an "Opinion News Media" (quote by Rupert Murdock, Fox News Owner, "We are an Opinion News Group".
Wasn’t your dad a guy that loved boats 45:46 45:51
...your fault, my fault nobody's fault...
What were his core values towards blacks? Sort of like MLk's core values towards marriage
WWJWWD? Dumb Idea
I would rather watch a John Wayne movie for the hundredth time then some of the new crap for 10 minutes
