The character played by Bruce Dern shot him in the back.
Dern loves to point out that he is only actor listed in a film's credits to portray someone who kills the character played by John Wayne. He also received death threats for that "achivement."
Brendan Wayne is John Wayne's grand-son, and appears in that film.
The Cowboys.
I think the character's name was John Anderson. The Cowboys was one of Wayne's best and most-loved movies and one of only a few in which his character was married. It was also one of very few in which his character dies. John Wayne's name in The Cowboys was actually Wil Andersen. -Bryce
John Wayne Died June 11, 1979 in California at the UCLA Medical Center.
