I'm forced to go with John Wayne because I haven't seen any of those movies and no idea what I've seen with George Burns. Never been a huge John Wayne fan though and not really a big western fan either, but he's had some good ones. Saw Stagecoach recently and that was good and I really like The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, him and Jimmy Stewart are great together.
