Best WESTERN?????

It's certainly one of my favourite American Westerns indeed. But those Italian ones just rock my soul!

 

Some great films mentioned... Tombstone is great, Unforgiven... I'd say my all time favorite has to be The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Amazing acting, amazing plot, beautifully artistic directing and one of the greatest scores of all time.

 

i think my dad had the soundrack on vinyl.....would love to get my hands on it!!!!

 

The Searchers.

EXCELLENT.

 

Ah, my dad has the one from Once upon a time in the west. With one side of the sleeve that supreme scene where the harmonicaman tries to save his brother.

 

Oh man! What a soundtrack to have In fact, I think I will try to download it now.

 

Try to download the one from For a few dollars more as well, also a great score from Morricone. Haha, we're turning this into a music thread.

 

John Wayne, i think was the best cowboy.. My fav movie is The Searchers...

 

Eastwood in High Plains Drifter

 

yes it was...

my vote for best western of all time.

 

The best western of all time surely is an italian one. I can't really choose, but it seems it doesn't get much better than the Good, Bad and the Ugly.

 

Clint Eastwood indeed. He has that indisputable cowboy charisma even now when he's grizzled and grandpa-like.

 

Rebel
about a former Confederate soldier, Johnny Yuma. Haunted by his memories of the war, Yuma roams the American West in search of inner peace and find his Sheriff father murdered.

 

Johnny Yumaaaaah... was a rebel. I love that song.

 

Josey Wales,Missouri Breaks and my current favorite ,Open Range.Bad day at black Rock was pretty good toh yeah--check out 'My Darling Clementine' with Henry Fonda.It's a true black and white classic and has Walter Brennan too.It's the same story as tombstone.

 

I love the whole Man with No Name Trilogy... especially the one in the Quote above and Fistfull of Dollars... Eastwood rocks.

 

Lee van Cleef rocks as well. And Klaus Kinski and Tomas Milian. They made some superb spaghetti westerns. But in the end that trilogy just is the best indeed.

 

Tombstone and Josey Wales for me.
I just got done watching High Plains Drifter. Can someone explain this one to me Im kind of at a loss. Specifically who was Clint supposed to be? Are we supposed to know? My best guess is he is somehow related to the Marshall. That would be the only explanation for what he did to the town and everything, otherwise it doesn't make much sense to me. Anybody have an explanation?

 

i like the man with no name trilogy. dead man with johnny depp is also amazing but insanly different from all other westerns

 

High Plains Drifter===Maybe don't depend on a saviour--depend on yourself or bad shit can happen?
