Howard Hawks, Film director born in Goshen, IN May 30, 1896

June 1, 2025

one of Howard Hawks' admired movies is

Rio Lobo (1970)

being shown today on

MOVIES! TV network

(check your own local

listings for start time)

Here in N. Indiana /

SW Michigan it airs

on Ch. 57.3 at 5:15 p.m.

until 8:30 p.m. thereabouts.

During this movie's filming, 

John Wayne returned after a 

brief trip to Hollywood 

to collect an Oscar

for "True Grit" (1969) and when he

returned to the set, everyone was wearing

an eye patch in honor of his

character, Rooster Cogburn,

including Wayne's horse.
