The film McLintock! (1963), starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara, was primarily a commercial success and a popular entertainment vehicle. Based on its genre (a comedic Western) and its critical reception at the time, the film was largely bypassed by major international and domestic award ceremonies.
As such, the film is notable for its lack of formal awards recognition from the major bodies.
Below are the specific details regarding its association with awards:

Its legacy is defined by its financial success and enduring popularity, rather than by critical accolades or trophies.
