John Wayne Bio on PBS reminded me of Firefly

Last night there was noting on so I watch this biography of John Wayne. Well they show this scene from one of his movies where he is walking to confront someone and this person behind him draws his pistol. So The Duke in one fluid motion turns, shoots the guy, gets hit in the gut, turns back around, holsters his gun and keeps walking.

It was so much like when Mal shoots the lawman in "Serenity" it’s almost freaky. I wonder if Mal learned to fight by watching old John Wayne movies...
