Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?
With our regular dose of the Calgary Stampede, it is hard to imagine that the gritty life of the cowboy is really over.
In John Huston’s "The Misfits" we see a trio of spent cowboys going after a handful of mustang horses to sell them for dog meat.
Marylyn Monroe comes in as the prime animal lover (and PETA candidate?) to dissuade them.
Clark Gable’s final wrestling with the great stallion weans him off this enterprise.
It makes one wonder: where have all the cowboys gone, that they need to be subdued by PETA-afficionadas?
