John Wayne, il prototipo del duro uomo del west aveva le sue debolezze, anche sul piano estetico. Anche lui si arrese al ritocchino 🛑Come si distrugge un mito

Das Wichtigste in unserem Leben ist das Morgen. Um Mitternacht kommt der junge Tag, rein und unbefleckt, und begibt sich in unsere Hände, hoffend, dass wir vom Gestern gelernt haben.

LA PELICULA DE LA QUE SIEMPRE SE ARREPINTIO JOHN WAYNE.
Pocas filmografías resultan tan asociadas a la mitología del cine clásico como la de John Wayne. Basta evocar Centauros del desierto, Río Bravo o El hombre que mató a Liberty Valance para que la figura de El Duque emerja recortada contra el horizonte del western, sólida e inquebrantable. Sin embargo, incluso los iconos arrastran dudas…

Hollywood legend who told the world he was from Neath to be honoured with blue plaque

Ray Milland, who starred alongside screen legends like John Wayne and Grace Kelly, was the first Welsh actor to win an Oscar and became one of Paramount’s highest-paid stars during a career that spanned five decades.

Now, 80 years after his career-defining Oscar win for the film The Lost Weekend, Neath Port Talbot Council has announced he will be recognised with a blue plaque.

Milland joins a prestigious list of local figures to be honoured, including fellow acting giants Richard Burton and Sir Anthony Hopkins.

The public will get a first look at the plaque at a free event this Friday, 6 March, at Melincryddan Community Hall from 3pm. It will later be installed at Milland’s childhood home on Dalton Road.

The successful nomination for the plaque came from the Neath Antiquarian Society.

Jonathan Davies, Chair of the society, said Milland never forgot his roots:

“I have little doubt that there are few people in our history that have reached more corners of the world and told them he was proud of the fact that he was from Neath.

“He’s known to have said, ‘When people say to me, you are English, I tell them I’m not English. I’m Welsh. Call me British if you like but never, never call me English’. His death was reported on every continent.”

1946 was a golden year for Milland. As well as the Academy Award, he also won Best Actor at both the Cannes Film Festival and the Golden Globes.

Councillor Cen Phillips, Cabinet Member for Nature, Tourism and Wellbeing, said:

“It’s great to honour the first Welsh Oscar winner, Ray Milland. He had an amazing career and became a household name in Hollywood. This blue plaque celebrates yet another figure from the incredible cultural legacy that we have across the whole of Neath Port Talbot.”

The council has confirmed that a further two blue plaques will be funded this year, with the funding window opening on 1 April.
