An evening event to 'Celebrate 10 Decades of the Duke'. We will commemorate the legendary film career of John Wayne and look to the future of filmmaking. The Wayne Family and the Newport Beach Film Festival will award the newly established "John Wayne Courage Award," created specifically to honor noted individuals who have blazed their own trails in the field of motion pictures and the arts.
