Hard to pick a favorite. I have a 3 way tie between Shane, Ride the High Country and The Sons of Katie Elder.
If we are talking TV show instead of movie, I am picking Cheyenne or Gunsmoke (earlier ones with Chester) |

So many to agree with but yes yes for Lee Marvin. He was always at the top of his game in every movie he was in.

I caught the end of The Searchers with John Wayne last night on cable. Pretty sure I'd seen it before, but my wife watched it with interest - that's rare.

ALL the spaghetti westerns directed by Sergio Leone are classics and are excellent. The Wild Bunch (1969) by Sam Peckinpah is excellent, along with The Ballad of Cable Hoage (1970) and True Grit (1969) as well. And don't forget El Dorado with John Wayne....a remake of Rio Bravo (or is it the other way around.....both are killer). There were a lot of excellent Westerns in the '60's and '70's, and some great ones years later as well. Firecreek (1968) holds up very well with Henry Fonda as a bad guy, and 1971's Lawman with Burt Lancaster is excellent. Hard to choose.......
Many of these period films had the same excellent cast members in character roles: Jack Elam, Woody Strode, Strother Martin, L.Q Jones, Bo Hopkins, etc.

My favorite western is "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly." Has to be the long uncut version.
Favorite comedy, Mad Mad Mad World, also the uncut version. I saw them both when they were new and just hit the theaters. I only had enough $$ to see them once back then. |

Nobody has mentioned Duck You Sucker (aka A Fistful Of Dynamite).
James Coburn. Directed by Sergio Leone, music by Ennio Morricone. And James Garner had a pair of comedies, Support Your Local Sheriff, and Support Your Local Gunfighter. Quote:

As a boy, western series on TV were my equivalent of video game addiction today.
I suspect I rarely missed episodes of The Lone Ranger, Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, Bonanza, Zorro, Have Gun Will Travel (Paladin!), Wagon Train, and the best- Rawhide (..head 'em up, move em' out...). To this day, if I get bit by a rattlesnake I know I need to use a filthy bandana as a tourniquet, cut a big X over the bite marks with the biggest knife in the county, and suck out the venom. My high school job was a projectionist. I probably watched (OK, ran) Little Big Man a dozen times.. was a good movie. My work buddy and I were really excited when they hung the poster for Zachariah, "The First Electric Western"! How could any movie disappoint us when The James Gang was part of the soundtrack? Well.... that movie was so bad none of us begged the manager for that poster. Not a candidate for best western movie. True Grit is a "local" favorite here, having been filmed in and around Ridgway in the Cimmarons. Beautiful scenery. I admit I own a copy on DVD and agree that "..fill your hands you sunny beach.." is a John Wayne classic moment. |

All great suggestions... Did anyone list "The Cowboys" with the Duke and Bruce Dern (as a really creepy bad guy)? Also, I also liked "Will Penny" with Charlton Heston, Lee Majors, Donald Pleasance and Anthony Zerby? A very realistic portrayal of cowboy life.

The Last Outlaw ,, with Mickey Rourke - was another one i really liked.
Wouldn't call it epic , but it was really very good. Rourke's best film Even better than Harley D. and the Marlboro Man - my opinion. |
