The Culpepper Cattle Co. (1972)
Director: Dick Richards
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Engaging 'demythologising' Western, with Grimes as the naive young Texan who joins a cattle drive with romantic dreams of the cowboy life, only to have them dashed as he encounters death, crime and compromise. Deliberately downbeat, aided no end in its aims at authenticity by the excellent photography (Lawrence Edward Williams and Ralph Woolsey).Author: GA
