So I was read this Cracked.com article about crazy shit that was done to people during the making of movies, when I found something interesting. During the filming of the 1928 film Noah's Arc, people actually drowned for real during the famous scene with the flood. Now, scary as that is, it also turns out that a young John Wayne was amoung the extras in that scene. So that got me thinking...
What if John Wayne drowns to death in 1928? What sort of impact would this have on American cinema, the Western film, and America as a whole? Would another actor take the mythological place John Wayne holds in the American mind instead?
