One of John Wayne’s best movies, “The Cowboys” is on TCM tonight. Check your local listings for the time in your area – I believe it comes on at 10:00 Eastern.
The Cowboys co-starred Roscoe Lee Browne, Robert Carradine, Bruce Dern, Colleen Dewhurst, Alfred Barker Jr., Nicolas Beauvy, A. Martinez, Norman Howell, and Stephen R. Hudis.
After his cattle drivers abandon him to search for gold, rancher Wil Andersen (John Wayne) is forced to take on a lively group of young boys as his drivers in order to get his herd to market in time to avoid financial damnation. The boys learn what it means to work like a man, and Wil feels more useful than ever, but none of them realize that a gang of cattle thieves is stalking them.
They leave as schoolboys and return as cowboys.
