UPI Hollywood correspondent Vernon Scott notes director Dick Richards challenges glamorized Old West myth. Richards, creator of The Culpepper Cattle Co, spent years researching via taped interviews with elderly drovers and cowboys. The piece argues real frontier life diverged from silver screen legends.
Richards explains frontier legends were built on violence and ambush. He notes cowboys often respected Indian traditions and rarely fought Indians, contrasting with Hollywood tropes. The Culpepper Cattle Co. follows an authentic drive from West Texas to Ft. Lewis with no romance or quick-draw scenes.
