“The Searchers” is better than anything except “Lawrence of Arabia.”
The Searchers is a *great* movie. Shane was my late father’s favorite Western novel and film. Took the boys to see it at the theater, and we watched it many time together on TV. Became our favorite, too. I’ll go with the Western Writers Association’s list of 100 top Western movies that has Shane at #1. They have High Noon #2 and The Searchers #3; I would switch those two. In the end, though, it’s a matter of preference and fun to debate.
