The 23 Year Old John Wayne

It's the way that Wayne leans on his hips when he speaks to someone. He has charisma and personality that can emulated by all. His distinctive character carves him out as a screen personality rather than an actor, and there's a lot that can be learned from him about what it means to be talented rather than the story of the American west.
