I was more of a fan of his westerns rather than his wartime movies. The Duke was a true legend. It is good to see him being honored in such a way.

I almost bought "The Cowboys" this weekend at Walmart but they only had it in VHS. It was like $5.88 or something...

I guess they have that 5.88 sale consistently at every Wal Mart across America then. They have 5.88 VHS sales here all the time.

You almost can't buy that for $5.88..."Home Alone 8" maybe but a John Wayne movie for $5.88...that's just wrong...
