Yesterday marked the 60th anniversary of the John Wayne/Maureen O'Hara western comedy, McLintock! It was a western version of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew.
This was the second John Wayne movie I saw in 1963. I saw Donovan's Reef at the Balboa Theater in Los Angeles with King Kong vs. Godzilla, which was released in the U.S. in June of 1963. Two friends joined my parents and me to see the double-feature.
I do remember that the Kennedy cortege passed by a movie theater with McLintock! on the marquee. So November would be right.

It is hard to believe sometimes how much time has passed.
