Western films with no risk of hearing a single spaniards' word

Posted on 03/04/2023 8:23:55 PM PST by Right Wing Vegan

What are some great western films, especially old, without any mexicO's language or music involved? I guess maybe Midwesters are the best chance?

Of all movies the Western genre uniquely provides the director with vistas that wonderfully do what movies do best, convey information visually rather than orally. But that does not excuse a Western from fulfilling its duty to viewers, to say something worthwhile. It is one thing to set the mood and quite another to bestir the soul.

For example, Dances with Wolves is a stunningly beautiful film with magnificent landscape scenes. The problem with Dances with Wolves is that it was a rank propaganda piece: red man good, white man bad.

Black Robe is part of the Western genre with equally beautiful photography but it is, in effect, a Dances with Wolves for grown-ups. Dances with Wolves tells us that the clash between Indians and whites as a result of the perfidy of whites. Black Robe explores the cultural and, more importantly, the fundamental theological or epistemological beliefs of these races that made their clash inevitable and the near extinction of the red race inevitable.

In other words, Dances with Wolves was a tawdry bit of emotional manipulation for a woke political aim. Black Robe reached a higher level, and prompts us to consider our own modern religious condition.

“I don’t remember any Spanish in The Searchers”

Well, the Comanche chief was named ‘Cicatrice’. Scar in Spanish.
The scene in the New Mexico bar with the old Mexican rancher and Jeffery Hunter’s character asking the Mamacita for more Frijoles.
All to me qualifiy as Spanish.

I’m a Texan, but you keep ignoring people and what we think of the language.

Here’s “The Gael”, the wonderfully haunting theme from TLOTM.

Your bigotry extends even to a language? One that has deep roots in the history and culture of this country? What’s the matter with you?

How do turn even one’s opinion of sounds into “bigotry”?

You people are getting nuts with your woke stuff.

The Outlaw Josey Wales (or anything Clint Eastwood)

The Big Country (Charlton Heston, Gregory Peck) is a very good western
however there is a lovely Spanish family living on the ranch

any of the Sackett movies (Tom Selleck)

I’m not sure what you are asking for, but it was the Spanish who taught the settlers in the US to punch cattle. You can’t possibly avoid Spanish words in cowboy Westerns.

Wrong. The Mexican carpenters.
