Hello,

I saw McLintock was I was a sophomore in high school. About 12 years later I met and married my wife.

If my memory is correct McLintock was never one of the John Wayne movies that was shown on TV. Others, made after McLintock were.

When it finally made tv my wife and I watched. We both noticed that a scene near the end of the movie was missing.

Near the end of the movie John Wayne catches up to Maureen O'Hara and asks her what "put the burr under her saddle". She says that when he came back from a trip to the capital (I'm not sure about that) he had lipstick on the collar of his shirt. John Wayne answers that when he was leaving on his trip she (Maureen O'Hara) kissed him and got lipstick on his collar. She offered to get him another shirt. John Wayne told her he did not need another shirt since the trip was only overnight. Maureen O'Hara reacts with a shocked look, realizing that John Wayne is correct and then starts running from him. From that point on the final minutes of the movie are correct.

My wife saw the movie at a different theater and gone to the movie with her father. As I said initially, we did not meet until many years later. We both remembered that scene.

Why it was deleted I have no idea. Perhaps different versions were distributed, but that's just a wild guess.

I cannot point to a verifiable source regarding this scene. Perhaps, someone else may remember it and have a reference, or can at least verify that he or she saw this scene as well.
