Wayne in Action: The Comancheros

BBC One
on BBC One London

Wide screen adventure with Big John in his greatest roles.
Tonight John Wayne stars with Stuart Whitman, Ina Balin, Lee Marvin

Captain Jake Cutter of the Texas Rangers is assigned to penetrate the ranks of 'The Comancheros' a ruthless outlaw band. He has some surprises in store when he also finds himself saddled with a lace-shirted riverboat gambler.
Laconic, resourceful, and immensely endearing, Wayne is at his best as he moves gracefully through the rugged action, biting out his lines with matchless charm.
