Die Cowboys: Directed by Mark Rydell. With John Wayne, Roscoe Lee Browne, Bruce Dern, Colleen Dewhurst. Rancher Wil Andersen is forced to hire inexperienced boys as cowhands in order to get his herd to market on time but the rough drive is full of dangers and a gang of cattle rustlers is trailing them.

“Obviously, John Wayne had a long and distinguished career in the movies. Of course, he was merely playing himself time after time. In this movie, that works wonderfully well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe plays Wil Anderson, a man in his 60s with little else he can do but hire a classroom of boys to help with a cattle drive. This makes for a fun outing for anyone in any age group. Roscoe Lee Browne is well cast here. His scene with Colleen Dewhurst is very well played. Bruce Dern is great, too! u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy son, who is a big fan of u0026quot;Star Warsu0026quot; and u0026quot;Indiana Jonesu0026quot;, pointed out the John Williams music in u0026quot;The Cowboysu0026quot;; it is very good indeed.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;The Cowboysu0026quot; is my choice for the movie to introduce people to John Wayne. It definitely makes you want to see more! Out of four stars, I rate it: ***.5”
