Introduction Where Was Big Jake (1971) Movie Filmed?

This movie Where Was Big Jake (1971) is really about two very “able” smart men. And the actors could not have been better chosen. John Wayne and Richard Boone. Two of THE greatest, “fan” loving” actors ever; matched together in a pseudo “cowboy” setting; but with a modern slant.

Its gruesome plot is ensconced in family vs an outright “mean”, atrocious outlaw; who is the head of nothing but guns and goons. The suspense, causing one to stay on the edge of one’s chair, stays almost to the very end of a great movie.

So if you like comeuppance, true love, ego-led arrogance; with man-made justice, and action interspersed with drama; that will keep you watching intently;

Tough, rugged and a Cowboy of a dying era) is asked by his estranged Wife to retrieve their Grandson and make that responsible pay.

The film has a completely different feel from just about every other Western from John Wayne. Big Jake is surprisingly violent, bloody, and gritty.
