Who said pilgrim

They even made a song out of it from Buddy Holley. Cheers, Hondo B "When you come slam bang up against trouble, it never looks half as bad if you face up to it" - John Wayne quote. I know, I know, now we're getting silly. Chester and the Mrs. No big deal but I just thought of another phrase that's improperly associated with an entertainer.

People always associate Cary Grant with the phrase "Judy, Judy, Judy" and say it when they're doing impersonations of him. The fact is, he could never recall ever having said it there are differing theories as to how it came to be associated with him. Jen, It's good to see you back! We haven't seen you around for awhile. We really enjoy Cary Grant.

I would guess there is NOT a web site like this one for him as if we have the time. We just watched North by Northwest tonight, and he definitely didn't say, "Judy, Judy, Judy" and as you have already pointed out, we have never heard him say it in any of the many movies we've watched of his. Hey Mr. I've been around on and off - I just haven't been posting all that much of late.

It's been a while since I've seen any new films so I don't have any new questions to ask right now! Anyway, I think there probably IS a discussion board for CG, but as you suggest, there really isn't time in one's day for yet another film legend. And you know how these things snowball Btw, I love North by Northwest!

That's as far down that trail we'll be traveling. Good to see you checking in!! That's all folks! There were several comedians, mostly in the 70's and probably most notably Rich Little if I remember right who used "pilgrim" in their impression of the Duke all the time.

I think mainly people who've only seen a couple of John Wayne's movies seem to think he said that in a lot of his westerns but as several people here have mentioned there really were only the two and he used it the most in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance when talking to Jimmy Stewart, he may have said it once in McLintock!

I believe it was in the dialogue before that as well when the homesteaders first showed up. He frequently worked in minor roles with director John Ford and when Raoul Walsh suggested him for the lead in The Big Trail , an epic Western shot in an early widescreen process called Fox Grandeur, Ford vouched for him. A pilgrim is someone who travels a great distance to fulfill a religious purpose.

Many people saw religion and civilizations as the same thing, so bringing it to the New World, and later the west, was viewed as a sort of a pilgrimage. Previous What happens when you attack a monster in defense position? Next What is the cultural context of A Rose for Emily?
