Big Jake

Big Jake finds John Wayne in top form as a tough-as-nails rancher racing to rescue his kidnapped grandson. Set in the early 1900s, the film blends traditional western grit with the encroaching modern world — and plenty of action along the way. With sharp dialogue, family tension, and Wayne’s commanding presence, Big Jake is a thrilling and heartfelt entry in the Duke’s later career. Ride into John Wayne Week with this underrated gem.
