Your favorite westerns.

[Endur]

My favorites have already been mentioned, except for two that are missing.

Chisum ... Has John Wayne and Billy the Kid, can't go wrong with that

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ... classic film with Robert Redford

 

[amethal]

Has anybody mentioned Destry Rides Again?

That's a fun western, where James Stewart almost manages to prove that you don't need a gun to be an effective lawman in a western.

I'd also like to mention Yojimbo . As I understand it, the film was inspired by westerns, and for those of you who haven't seen it, if you do watch it the plot will seem strangely familiar ......

Other than that, I can only echo what everyone else has said - especially about Unforgiven and High Noon.

 

[Maerdwyn]

I watch The Magnificent Seven any time I get the chance.

I'm also a big fan of Tampopo - does that count for this list?

 

[Hand of Evil]

I may have missed it on the list but Red Sun, if you have not seen it do! East meets west as legendary Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune teams up with Charles Bronson in Terence Young's "Red Sun".

Winchester 73 with Jimmy Stewart.

Okay, don't hit me but I like the Apple Dumpling Gang movies.

 

[David Howery]

I'm not a huge fan of westerns, but there are few in my collection. "Unforgiven" is probably my favorite. Others are Open Range, Big Jake, True Grit, and all of Eastwood's "man with no name" movies...

 

[TemplarSaint]

A lot of good movies here, and I don't want to repeat any of those fine selections, so I'll just add the one movie I remember liking that I don't see yet: Red River. John Wayne and Montgomery Clift in a gritty, cattle-drive turned nightmare Western.

 

[Tonguez]

oops - great list above btw

 

[Tonguez]

Besides Little Big Man, A Man Called Horse and Paint Your Wagon I'm partial to

The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean

and Cheyene Autumn

all the Terence Hill movies and Clint Eastwoods Spaghetti Westerns too

 

[Zarithar Savageclaw]

I'm going to have to go with:

The Outlaw Josey Wales

Once Upon a Time in the West (Charles Bronson... harmonica player)

Blazing Saddles

Lonesome Dove (the first mini-series... not the follow-ups).

 

[JRRNeiklot]

Hawmps.

That's all I have to say.
