Western Movies...the oldies
 THE 'B' WESTERNS
The 1930’s were the heyday years for western movies. Hollywood cranked them out and every kid in the country went to the local theater to watch them. They had their moment in history but eventually, like most things the "B" western movies disappeared. If you're lucky you may catch one of these old western movies on some obscure cable channel from time to time…that is, as I said, if you're lucky.
But we know there are more than a few of you out there who would really enjoy watching a good ol’ “B” Western movie every now and again. Why with nothing more than a simple plot and an hours worth of action these old Western movies brought pure and wholesome entertainment into the lives of more than a generation of Americans young and old, and believe it or not, they still can. And it can happen right here.
The American Western movie, where the men were men and the women were always pretty. Where you knew the good guys from the bad and that’s who you rooted for. The guns were flashy, the horses were fast and the bad guys…well, they always met their match.
So take a break, relax, be a kid again and prepare to be simply entertained.
