Tom Berenger was great in Rustlers Rhapsody.

Colonel Ticonderoga: [in falsetto voice] Who is it?
Jim: It's a bunch of your men. Five of 'em.
Colonel Ticonderoga: [clears throat and talks in manly voice] Be right there, men.
Love that movie, along with Blazing Saddles!
 
A bit of trivia.
HGopalong Cassidy and Gene Autry became gazillionaires because they saw an opportunity with the onset of TV. They bought up the rights to their old movies and HC the rights to the name from an author who created the character. Then they syndicated the old movies for programing on black and white TV. HC licensed and sold toys, etc. for little boys. Autry started buying radio stations. Roy Rogers, though a great guy and cowboy actor lacked the business acumen and was never a really wealthy man.
 
I like a lot of them but Robert Duvall is my favorite. One of my favorite movies that doesn't get mentioned a lot anymore is The Long Riders and there were some good characters in that one because of all of the brothers who played brothers.
