Steve McQueen vs. John Wayne

I always think of how Glenn Campbell referred to the Duke as "the arch conservative" in his book. That says it right there. Yes he had a typical persona in most of his films. I chuckle every time I see him as Genghis Khan but the chemistry in some of the films with people like Maureen O'Hara, Dean Martin, Walter Brennan, Angie Dickinson, Ricky Nelson, David Janssen ... It just worked.
