EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to July 1974, witnessing the legendary American actor John Wayne immersed in his first London-based film, "Brannigan". Shot at Shepperton Studios in Middlesex, this particular scene showcases Wayne's remarkable talent and versatility as he takes on the role of a tough Chicago Police Lieutenant. The image captures a pivotal moment in the film where Wayne's character orchestrates a pub fight at The Blue Boar alongside Richard Attenborough, who portrays Commander Sir Charles Swann. This staged brawl serves as an elaborate ruse to deceive an underworld figure into believing that Wayne is on his side. As our eyes delve deeper into the photograph, we witness chaos unfolding within the pub. What initially began as a fake altercation quickly escalates into an all-out free-for-all throughout the establishment. It is evident that both actors have fully committed themselves to their roles, delivering punches with intensity and conviction. This snapshot from "Brannigan" not only highlights John Wayne's commanding presence but also showcases his ability to seamlessly adapt to different genres and settings. With its authentic depiction of 1970s entertainment and filmmaking culture, this print by Ron Burton offers us a glimpse into cinema history while capturing the essence of action-packed storytelling on screen.
