7 Western movies I like - name yours

[thebinmann]

Paint Your Wagon...

Even though Homer was disappointed that it wasn't paint your wagon with blood it is good "I was born under a wandering star...."

If were're going musical I'll through in Seven Brides.

[Galloping Major]

Quick and the dead is good, and actually has an amazing cast

Open range is Michael Gambon (I think) as the Irish guy. Not sure it is that like Unforgiven...

Saved me pointing that out, Gambon was great in Open Range, but then, when isn't he?  

Rehetorical question BTW

The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid (Cliff Roberston is great as Cole Younger)

The Grey Fox (Richard Farnsworth as Bill Miner)

The Wild Bunch (just because)

The Magnificent Seven (again just because)

The Searchers (if only for the last shot of the Duke framed in the doorway)

Wild Bill (partly based on Pete Dexter's Deadwood - a book you must read)

and Unforgiven (for breathing life back into the genre)

[Galloping Major]

The Grey Fox (Richard Farnsworth as Bill Miner)

Yes, a really nicely made film, made about the same time, and set about the same period:
Harry Tracy (Bruce Dern)
