This guy left out the dozens of John Wayne flicks that could have easily made it.
My favs: True grit, El Dorado, and McClintock

Dunno how it stacks up, since of these I've only seen "High Noon" and "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" (liked 'em both), but I'll always have a soft spot for "Gunfight at the OK Corral".

Nope, a New Yorker who was transplanted to this hellhole back in June. I just use that tagline to freak people out.

Oh. . .and "Stagecoach" is a real winner too.

ITA, anything with John Wayne is a true western.

I'll put in for Peckinpah's underrated Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, starring James Coburn and Kris Kristofferson. .....and a virtual who's who of famous western character actors. Soundtrack by Bob Dylan, who also played the character "Alias."

I like "They Call Me Trinity", and "Trinity is Still My Name". Terence Hill and Bud Spencer are a great team.

My favorite western is #3, High Noon.
I also like quite a few of the John Wayne ones.
To: pissant
Although it's an amusing film, High Plains Drifter shouldn't be on that list.

The Searchers!
She wore a yellow ribbon.
Just watched Open Range with duval and costner it was
pretty good.
My all time favorite is RED RIVER!

High Noon for me, the true movie of the american spirit. No bravado required, just standing up for what's right.
To: pissant
"This guy" thinks Eastwood is the best western actor.
John Wayne defined the "Western" in America, and The Searchers is the best Western ever.

Defnitely The Searchers, also Stagecoach.

What about "Shakiest Gun In The West" with Don Knotts.
"A seven-shooter?"
To: everydayislikesunday
That is good way to describe it and that is why it is my favorite.
