Iowa farm boy Lewis Tater has a brainstorm: instead of continuing the correspondence courses that are learnin him to write cowboy novels, hell travel to the out-West school itself and soak up the campus atmosphere first hand. He arrives to find the school is a postal box. Write em, cowboy. Taters adventures dont stop there in an acclaimed tumbling tumbleweed of a film that has him earning his spurs in the yippie-yi-o of 30s B Westerns, complete with a veteran sagebrusher (Andy Griffith), a savvy script girl (Blythe Danner) and a hilariously inept director (Alan Arkin, the New York Film Critics Award choice as the years Best Supporting Actor). Jeff Bridges plays Tater, a likable pilgrim as fresh-faced and innocent as Bridgess decades-later Rooster Cogburn in True Grit is worn and wise. **Please be aware that this is a manufactured on demand disc that was created using a DVD-R disc.
