There is an old movie about two cowboys who work cattle and fence all winter together in an out lying shack for the land owner. Then every spring they go in to town and blow their whole years wages and wind up forced to do the same thing over again. Every winter they make big plans to spend their money wisely but every spring they blow it all.
I THINK Jimmy Stewart and Henry Fonda played the leads but I sure can't find it. My google fu is weak.

Wonder if you’re not thinking of The Rounders , a mid 60s movie with Fonda and Glen Ford. It’s always been one of my favorites too. 7mm

Barbaroso didn't make the top 10? Neither Barbarosa nor The Red Headed Stranger even made the Top 100. Nor did any other Willie Nelson movie. Fuqk that Commie Socialist dope smoking POS ! 😡 He was a horrible actor too.

He is a Bowser for an actor. He was in a movie with Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings where they all played outlaws, I think one was Jessee James and one was Billy the Kid. Willie was not much good.
I gave up on that guy about 15 years ago, he got busted by the IRS, failure to file tax returns on $15 million of income over several years. Willie didn't say he was not guilty, but he called on all his fans to pitch in and pay his tax bill.
What a cry baby! What a self important jerk! He is living a millionaires' life and not even paying taxes, a multi millionaires' life, and I am supposed to take a chunk of my $33K salary as a paremedic and send it to him?
No way, Jose. You can just go to Federal prison as far as I care.

Gawd what a stinker!! He and his "Highwaymen" buds did several together. The only passable one was The Last Days of Frank and Jesse James, which I think SimonKenton has confused with the others. They also did a remake of Stagecoach with Kris Kristofferson as the Ringo Kid. Kristofferson ain't the Duke.

I THINK Jimmy Stewart and Henry Fonda played the leads but I sure can't find it. My google fu is weak. "The Rounders" is my wife's favorite western, but I wouldn't really call her a fan of westerns. It's certainly worth seeing, probably because two big name stars of the day were in it. Had they not been, I doubt if it would have been seen by many. Henry Fonda and Glenn Ford were both in better films. Not top ten material.

Just watched Missouri Breaks with Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson for the umpteenth time. One of the more real west looking western movies ever made in my opinion. Brando's character was over-the-top weird but he pulled it off like only he could.

Saw The Rounders, when I was a kid. It's more on the order of JW Coop or Junior Bonner, not Cowboys and Indians or Cowboys and Mexicans.
The Missouri Breaks was widely panned when it was released. I thought it was okay. Not top 100 material.

Westerns are hard to define. The Last of the Mohicans, The Alamo, The Professionals, The Wild Bunch, Drums Along the Mohawk...all great movies. All more or less about the west as it was during the era they were set in. Traditional "westerns"? I dunno.

Actually The Last of the Mohicans story has nothing to do with happenings in the west at all but the early colonization of the east and north east.
