    So let me get this straight. Girl presumably turns down this guy's advances. Pays more attention to another, with whom she has some pre-relationship chemistry with maybe some shared activities. First one gets jelaous, says or does something frightening while following her back to her house. And when the girl seeks protection from her dad, he tricks his own daughter and allows the man he seem his younger self in, physically and sexually assault and beat her, as he gets his rocks off?!?

    I started to watch this movie recently, but just couldnโ€™t take it. I guess Iโ€™m not Neanderthal enough. Spanking women or children is uncool too. So many of these old films have just not aged well at all. Same for Eastwoodโ€™s films. Way sexist and racist.

    Missy had quite made up her mind that afternoon
    (that is, if a young lady can make up her mind at all,
    which is certainly a matter for debate).
    Dev had called her a trollop,
    which was most impolite,
    and so, as anyone would, she went to fetch her father.

    Now, John Wayne was a most peculiar sort of Kingโ€”
    not the sort who wore a crown,
    but the sort who sat on a leather chair
    with a cigar in one hand and a pistol in the other.
    And when Missy came to him,
    all flushed with outrage and indignation,
    he merely raised an eyebrow and drawled,
    โ€œWell, darlinโ€™, if you reckon he needs shootinโ€™, then I reckon Iโ€™ll shoot him.โ€

    Which seemed, all things considered,
    a very neat and practical solution.

    Soโ€”Bang!โ€”Dev fell down like a sack of cabbages.
    Missy clapped her hands and declared it
    โ€œPerfectly splendid.โ€
    Butโ€”oh dear!โ€”just as suddenly, he popped back up again!
    (Which was very bad manners indeed for someone who had just been shot.)
    And Dev, quite red in the face,
    pointed a rather accusatory finger at Missy and said,
    โ€œThat was simply beastly of you!
    And for thatโ€”you must be spanked!โ€

    Now, as any young lady knows,
    there is simply no response to such a statement
    except to run for oneโ€™s father.
    But John Wayne only chuckled and leaned back in his chair.
    โ€œWell, sweetheart, youโ€™re on your own now,โ€
    he said, striking a match on his boot.
    โ€œIf a man wants to spank a lady,
    I reckon thatโ€™s just how things go.โ€

    And before Missy could object further,
    she found herself most undignifiedly upended,
    and Devโ€”who had never before done such a thingโ€”
    prepared to deliver the first of what was surely to be
    a most historical spanking.

    But just as his hand was raised,
    John Wayne (who had, until now, been very much enjoying himself)
    fished about in the hearth
    and producedโ€”of all thingsโ€”a tiny fireplace shovel.
    โ€œHere, son, youโ€™re going to want to use this,โ€
    he said, as though offering a cup of tea.

    And so it was that Missy,
    who had started the afternoon as a perfectly respectable young lady,
    ended it quite upside-down
    while John Wayne chuckled between puffs of smoke,
    and history galloped forward, as absurd as ever.

    And as the stars blinked on over the prairie,
    a voice (which may have been the voice of History itself)
    sighed through the wind and murmured,
    โ€œLeave them alone, leave them aloneโ€”
    the past did its best.โ€

    To be fair, Mclintock! was supposed to be a western, comedic adaptation of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew", which was all about men "correcting" the behavior of "troublesome" women.

    You know what is funny to me? When I was a kid/teenager, I was a rebellious lil shit, and I had a high pain tolerance. We went through the spoon, belt, switch, sawed off canoe paddle, everything my parents could throw at my ass, and it did little to nothing. However, we had a thick and solid cast iron shovel for our wood stove, about 3 foot long, with a thick hickory handle. This was something really heavy duty, a two-hander, and makes that shovel used in this movie look like a plastic kids' shovel for going to the beach and making sand castles. None of that tin/aluminum shit. I tell ya, just the threat of that shovel straightened my brother, sister, and I out! In fact, we would stuff toilet paper in our pants if we knew we were going to get it, and even that wasn't enough sometimes! However, it got us kids to learn respect and to act right.

    We had a couple who were having hard times live with us for a brief bit, and witnessed us getting swats with it. They tried to use that against my mom and dad when they went to divorce court to prove my folks weren't good character witnesses or something. According to what I heard, the judge got wide eyed for a moment, smiled, and then gave my folks a thumbs up about it. You won't hear that stuff these days, kids are too pampered and spoiled and there seems to be laws to prevent disciplining kids under the intent of preventing child abuse, which is kinda child abuse in reverse if you think about it.

    Anyway, this cracked me up, as all TAG videos do, and it took me down memory lane a bit. ๐Ÿ˜†

    It's so fake though, because I can tell you for a fact, it's really difficult to hold someone in the spanking position when they're trying to get away and still keep your spanking are free. You'll end up whacking their thighs or hip at best.

    You know she married the guy who spanked her and not the 'boyfriend', right? ๐Ÿ™‚
    There's nothing sexier than a man who's a little scary, so that first spanking will be one of the highlights of her life!

    Spanking with a coal shovel…he might enjoy it too much to use his hand. That's Stephanie Powers, she was on a show called Hart to Hart with Robert Wagner, Stephanie was in a long term relationship with William Holden(featured at the end in Conspiracy film Network, who's star also died before he could claim his Oscar), he died mysteriously in Nov '81, 17 days later Robert's wife Natalie Wood(played the little girl on Miracle on 34th St, Rebel Without A Cause, Westside Story) died mysteriously. You be the judge…what are the odds of that occuring to a pair of leads in a primetime tv show watched by millions?

    Not so sure the past was doing its best when it made this movie. Seems like the film makers were maybe deliberately trying to do poorly in some respects.

    in the final scenes of the movie, Wayne is chasing his obnoxious wife Maureen O'Hara,through the town with the intent of turning her over his knee.
    When he finally catches up with her, he's about to begin paddling, when his friend Yvonne DeCarlo puts a small shovel in HIS hand just like the scene above.
    This is one of Wayne's funniest movies.
    what you DON'T do with movies like this is go into them prepared to judge the interactions and social more's against the yardstick of "What is acceptable in the 21st century".
    "McLintock!" was made in 1963.
    That is SIXTY years ago [61 actually], and the whole of society, the culture, the technology, literally everything was VERY different back then.
    If you want context, compare America of 1920 with that of 1980.
    Sixty years is a LONG time when discussing social attitudes.
