that John Wayne won was for 1969's "True Grit." Quinn did not win for 1964's "Zorba the Greek." Quinn wasn't nominated in 1969 and Wayne wasn't in 1964."True Grit" is a fair movie. I cannot say that Wayne did not deserve his Oscar but he should have won for "The Searchers", a far better film with a splendidly iconic Wayne performance. The Oscar in 1969 SHOULD have gone to the unnominated Yves Montand for his earth shattering performance in Costa-Gavras's masterful "Z". Quinn should have won for "Zorba" but didn't - proof that the best aren't always recognized.
