The Cowboys (1972), is a classic cinema gem starring John Wayne as Wil Andersen, a desperate rancher who hires young boys for a cowboy film cattle drive. 

Along the way, they face harsh lessons, personal growth, and the deadly threat of Bruce Dern, delivering one of the most chilling movie villains in Western movies.
