How does one grow up watching westerns with their dad, going to drive in movies and have never seen the original True Grit with John Wayne?

The last of the great "Cowboys", Robert Duvall and Clint Eastwood are really getting up there. The best of the younger generation that makes a western that I like is Costner. The two problems is 1, The great westerns were made when western history wasn't that far in the past, which is no longer the case any longer and 2, Hollywood seems to no imagination left, constantly remaking movies, especially those that shouldn't be touched rather than actually making something new.

I was born in 1974 - the original True Grit was released before my birth. The town where I grew up had one movie per week and unfortunately I was not lucky enough to see this one with my dad. The only older movies that we got to see were Lone Ranger shorts if I remember correctly. And as to new movies - the west had sanctions against my country so we did not get good movies and a lot of things were never shown here.

Not all members on this forum grew up in the west or a first world country my friend.
