The Cowboy’s…

Grew up on John Wayne…

I read somewhere a while ago that Bruce Dern’s career actually took a hit for being the guy who shot John Wayne in that movie…

The “hero” dies? Amadeus. Mozart dies. Salieri lives. Yet, we don’t know who is the hero. By the way, Ed Sheeran references Amadeus in the recent romcom, Yesterday.

Two that come to mind:
Denzel Washington in “Man on Fire.”
Steven Waddington (Duncan) in “Last of the Mohicans” (he wasn’t the hero, but it was a powerful moment.)
