Dead Aim, The Deserter, Captain Apache, The Grand Duel.

Lee Van Cleef is a fine western actor .

Lonesome Dove has to be my favorite, and all of the books.

Shane

I'm a big fan of the Clint Eastwood westerns. Of them I like "Outlaw Josey Wales" best, followed closely by "High Plains Drifter" and "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly". The whipping scene in "High Plains Drifter" bothers me everytime. Did you know the innkeepers wife is Dean Wormers wife from Animal House?

I don't care for Eastwood's westerns and I'm not a fan of Shane either. I like Red River and Magnificent 7 among others.

DM, yes Clint, Hang them High, Fist full of Dollars ! For a Few Dollars More,Joe Kidd, and on and on !

And no I did not know the innkeepers wife is from Animal House ! We all learn each and every day ! Thanks for sharing !

I also like TOMBSTONE ! Kurt Russell, and Val Kilmer, Val Kilmer lost 60-80 lbs to play this part but he was great in it ! I loved the way he could do that there shot tin around like Johnny Ringo !

I have not watched much western movies but Cowboys & Aliens is one of the best western movie i ever watched. I watched this movie with my friends and i enjoyed it.

Unforgiven. Handsdown.

I forgot about Tombstone and Wyatt Earp.

I think, Tombstone, was done better than Wyatt Earp, Kilmer he is and always will be the Doc. Holiday. Sam Eliott is also good in his westerns !

The Warrior's Way is one of favorite Western movie for me i ever watched. I love this movie. I have watched this movie more than 4 time and enjoyed it. I love the story of this movie.

City Slickers.....one thing!

Here's a western movie thread for you, Foot.

I have a great fondness for the John Wayne version of True Grit. First, it's a very good story about how people who are very different on the surface can be very similar inside.

Second, it's set in Oklahoma, but they filmed it in various places of dramatic scenery and didn't even try to pick locations that could pass for Oklahoma:



Yeah, that's snow up there.

There was a western vampire movie they made on the 50s. But I can't remember the name of it or who was in it.

Found it "the curse of the undead" 1959.

I am sure there have been others. I think I will try to get my fangs on it

I personally prefer the more modern spaghetti westers, but have no problem with the older ones.

1.Once Upon A Time In The West
2.Unforgiven
3.High Noon
4.The Good The Bad And The Ugly
5.A Fistful of Dollars

High noon was a more modern western? The Gary cooper movie? It was made in the 50s.

Didn't say High Noon was modern. I said i prefer modern Spaghetti westerns, which i think is pretty clear since 4 out of my 5 favourites are post 50s and 3 are spaghetti westerns.

Once upon a time in the west

Its been four years since i started this thread and The Good The Bad And The Ugly is still the best western i have saw..

Was Eli Wallach the best fake Mexican or what

"The Sons of Katie Elder" is on AMC right now. Dino and the Duke. Two of my favorite people .

What! No Magnificent Seven on anybody's list?

I said Eli Wallach was the best Jew that played a fake Mexican in Good, the bad and the ugly and I saved the best for last. The Magnificent Seven and he could ride a horse no stunt double.

James Caan was a professional rodeo cowboy in real life. And he's Jewish.

Well then, you haven't "saw" Wyatt Earp or The Magnificent Seven! I'd also throw in The Big Country with Charleston Heston and Gregory Peck.

A good western is like art what people like s different for everybody. My favorite western was Red River.

Howard Hawks was a great director. Haven't seen Red River myself, but i did really enjoy Bringing Up Baby, His Girl Friday and Rio Bravo from him.

I have saw The Magnificent Seven Oli and in my opinion is no where near TGTBATU.

Have you seen Once Upon a Time In The West by Leone? It's on yt if you haven't.

Yep The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is better than the Magnificent Seven. For a Few Dollars More I might like better than that. I thought the Eastwood/Van Cleef combo was the best out there (as evidenced in TGTBATU).
