I was thinking about getting some John Wayne movies on DVD, and most recommendations start with these three:

<i>Rio Bravo
Red River
The Searchers</i>

and to complete the quartet, I'd probably add:

<i>She Wore a Yellow Ribbon</i>

but I was curious if there are other films that might be worthy of inclusion? Which four John Wayne movies would you pick?

Others worth considering, strictly based on my enjoyment of them at various times, not neccessarily as true "Rushmore" candidates on the basis of their cinematic brilliance

The Cowboys
McClintock !
El Dorado

The Quiet Man
The Shootist
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance

And because I need four and haven't seen some of his other supposed better films...

BAH! These are the essential Juhn Wayne Mt. Rushmore.
a. Sands of Iwo Jima
b. The Green Berets
c. The Alamo (the most accurate historical movie ever made).
d. Back to Bataan. (also can be considered as the most accurate historical movie of all time).
