Many of the Western Stars in that video were favorites of my Dad. He would ride his bike to town on weekends with his friends and watch the latest western.

Most of those disappeared from TV re-runs by the time I got old enough to enjoy them, but thankfully many are now going to DVD.

Out of the Westerns I grew up with My favorites were:

The Magnificent Seven

True Grit

The Cowboys

Once upon a time in the West

The Good the Bad, and The Ugly

The Cheyenne Social Club

The Outlaw Josey Wales

Favorites to me ...... and I mean those movies that I have to watch when they come on and just love to watch over and over...... great stories ...

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance

Big Hand for a Little Lady (very funny)

The Cowboys (every boys fantasy to go out on his own... the opening where John Wayne goes to the school and the next day when all the boys show up is priceless)

Tombstone......Val Kilmer's best role

Unforgiven

The Searchers

Shane

High Noon

Treasure of the Sierra Madre

Lonesome Dove

wow... I just can't believe that there hasn't been that many more made recently. I guess it's not PC to have guys with guns save the day unless your a protected chosen class.... fighting the white Christian fundamentalists...oh well.

Geez, I can't believe no one has mentioned "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". It wasn't gruesome. It had only one, well placed, obscenity. And it was brilliant.
