Starring Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern and Jack Palance Directed by Ron Underwood Three male friends, facing their 40th birthdays and experiencing midlife crises, decide they need time away from their 'soft' city lives. Fans of old Western films, particularly John Wayne's RED RIVER, they decide to vacation at a dude ranch, where they will be responsible for a two-week-long cattle drive through the Colorado hills. Along the way the urban cowboys encounter bad weather; macho, gun-wielding ranchers; and pregnant cattle, but they finish the drive with their lives back on track.
