The Cowboys [DVD] [1972]

Saw this movie years ago and still remembered the story, was glad to find it on Blu-Ray from best buy!

I could watch this movie every day love it recommend to anyone who likes john Wayne

This 1972 western starring John Wayne (7 years before his death) is the story of an aging rancher (Wil Andersen) who is abandoned by his cattlemen since they would rather head to the gold fields than punch cows. Wil is reluctantly forced to replace his drovers with local school boys to move his cattle on a 400 mile drive. Those he had rejected for this dangerous trip form the drama in the plot as the cattle drive gets underway. Character studies are the key to understanding who is to be trusted and who is not. There are also surprises along the way in this top notch western.

One of my favorite John Wayne films. Bruce Dern plays a bad guy to perfection. A great film about young boys starting to become men.

One of my favorite John Wayne movies. Both funny & serious at times. Great for the whole family.

As always, it is a great John Wayne movie, even in his later years. It is a sad story, but it is also a movie to be proud of how the boys mature. This was purchased to update our library to a newer format, clear re-mastering and great detail.

I have seen this movie numerous times. It is a great western. I am very happy to have added this to my collection. If you are a John Wayne fan then you will not be disappointed.

John Wayne is one of my favorite silver Screen actors along with James Stewart. This movie is great.
