Did john Wayne meet the beatles?

They met once, in the summer of 1965, with the Beatles coming to Elvis' Hollywood home. The evening was uneventful; they jammed a little, and talked about songwriting and their careers up to that point. John Lennon told Elvis to his face "Before you there was nothing", and asked why Elvis had stopped making albums, besides his movie soundtracks.

The Beatles were saddened and disappointed to find out years later that Elvis had appealed to President Richard Nixon to ban the Beatles in the United States, on the grounds that their drug use would corrupt America's youth. (Ironically, Elvis was high on prescription medications, at the time he made the appeal.)

Movies starring both John Wayne and Lee Marvin?

"Fort Apache" (1948), "In Harm's Way"(1965), "The Longest Day" (1962), and "How the West Was Won" (1962). (Release dates) There are multi film packs available on some sites, but they (some) feature the aforementioned films, but most have films that Wayne and Fonda were not in together packed in one box as if a compilation. They were supposed to film "Lonesome Dove" with Jimmy Stewart, but Mr. Stewart apparently had conflicting obligations, so Wayne and Fonda backed out.
