Announcing 2026's Legends of Western Cinema Week

Gather up your boots and saddles, friends!  Today, on the 119th anniversary of John Wayne's birth, Heidi of Along the Brandywine and I are pleased to announce we are going to co-host Legends of Western Cinema Week next month!

From June 22 through June 26, join us in celebrating western movies and TV shows, anything and everything involving cowboys and celluloid.

As in years past, Heidi and I will provide a blog tag for people to fill out if they so desire.  We'll also do some games or other activities... and maybe a small giveaway.  The rest of the partying is up to you!

There's no sign-up roster or anything like that.  But if you want to discuss a post idea with us, drop a comment on my post or Heidi's, and we'll happily chat!  You can contribute a movie or TV show review, a list of favorites, a character analysis, a game of your own -- whatever your western-loving heart dreams up.

The only real rule is that your posts must have celebratory, not derogatory, attitude toward the western genre.  If you dislike westerns, spend the week thinking about something else, mmkay?

Save and use any or all of these buttons on your own blogs, in your posts, etc.  We'd love it if you helped spread the word about the event so lots of people can join the fun :-)
