Back in 1963, John Wayne starred in a Western comedy loosely based on William Shakespeare\u2019s The Taming of the Shrew.<\/p>\n

Duke played an ageing rancher called George Washington McLintock, a wealthy self-made man facing a number of issues.<\/p>\n

High-ranking government officials, his own sons and local Native Americans all want a piece of his huge farmstead.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, his wife (played by regular collaborator Maureen O\u2019Hara) who separated from him two years prior, is back on the scene demanding custody of their daughter.<\/p>\n

McLintock! celebrates its 60th anniversary this week, as celebrated by the John Wayne estate on Instagram.<\/p>\n

A recent post read: \u201cDid you know? Although often seen as simply a knockabout comedy, John Wayne also intended the film to be a statement on his disapproval of the negative representation of Native Americans in previous westerns he had no creative-control over, and his disapproval of wife-beating and marital abuse from either spouse.\u201d<\/p>\n

A film of its time, McLintock famously has a scene, as captured on its poster, of Wayne\u2019s George publicly spanking his wife played by O\u2019Hara.<\/p>\n

According to his co-star\u2019s autobiography, this scene was \u201ccompletely authentic\u201d with Duke carrying it out with \u201csuch gusto\u201d, that she “had bruises for a week.”<\/p>\n
