Answer 2

They both appear in Rio Bravo and The Sons of Katie Elder. True John Wayne westerns:

In Rio Bravo, they are lawmen trying to keep a prisoner, who is awaiting trial for murder, in custody while the bad guys brother is trying to break him out and not letting anyone else get in the town to help. Dean Martin plays a classic drunk deputy who learns how to be sober. John Wayne is the sheriff trying to keep everyone safe until the judge gets there. Ricky Nelson (the singer) is also in this movie who becomes involved in this as a deputy and is a good shot. And a young Angie Dickinson is Wayne's love interest.

The Sons of Katie Elder has both John and Dean as 2 of 4 brothers with Earl Holiman and Michael Anderson Jr. as the other 2 brothers. They all get together for their mother's funeral and to settle her estate. They have all gone their separate ways and John is a hired gun. John is the one who realizes that the land that their parents owned was swindled from them and he (and the others) want to set things straight plus have money to make the youngest son Bud (Michael Anderson Jr.) go back to college. The bad guys who own the land and a lot of the town, frame the boys for stealing and are going to see them killed but the boys have other ideas. Unfortunately one of the brothers is killed, Bud is wounded badly, Dean is shot in the back and John saves the day in the end. But you figure Bud and Dean do survive in the end and John feels that he did right by their mother.

They are both really good westerns and worth seeing more than once.
