Westerns are seemingly back in the culture. With the popularity of the television series Yellowstone and musical artists like Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter winning Album of the Year, it feels like we need to dust off our spurs and dig into this week's book selection, Charles Portis' True Grit. Andrew Limbong and B. A. Parker speak with NPR's Morning Edition host, Michel Martin about how young Mattie Ross goes on the adventure of a lifetime with her father's gun and hunger for vengeance – and how Portis' young female lead illustrates real-world consequences. This week's recommendations:Andrew: Blood Meridian, Cormac McCarthyParker: Anne of Green Gables, Lucy Maud MontgomeryMichel: Harriet the Spy, Louise FitzhughTo listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this episode, we explore the dramatic and tragic life of Susan Cabot, born Harriet Pearl Shapiro in 1927. From a childhood marked by loss and foster care in the Bronx to her rise as a Hollywood actress in Westerns and cult B-movies like Sorority Girl and The Wasp Woman, Susan's story is one of ambition, resilience, and hidden struggles. Behind the screen, she navigated secret relationships—including an alleged long-term affair with King Hussein of Jordan—motherhood, and battles with mental health. Tragically, in 1986, her only son, struggling with drug addiction, fatally stabbed her during a violent altercation at her Los Angeles home, ending her life at 58.

We close out our Westerns series with a review of dueling Wyatt Earps. On one side, we have an absolute shitshow of a production saved at the last moment by two powerhouse actors and some absolute perfect melodrama. On the other side, we have Kevin Costner giving the most soulless performance of his life. This is a real contrast, one destined for cable classic status and one that really could just be wiped from the face of the earth.

A movie with this reputation and this level of talent should be expected to at least be a competent film. But somehow Clint Eastwood chose the most tepid, non-committal way to tell a story that has more in common with great existential novels than Westerns. And that might be interesting, if it weren't for the fact that this movie is also convinced it's a western. Gene Hackman is acting his ass off and being just about the meanest son of a bitch you've ever met. But everything else in this movie just feels totally and completely missed, and that's a problem we can't solve because it happens to be one of the most lauded films of all time.
