I think Unforgiven outshadowed his earlier westerns.

But...painting the town red was never so cool! :aok

"The Searchers" was one the best westerns produced, if not THE best.

Personally, I thought "Dances With Wolves" was a bit too much politically correct fluff-n-feathers.

I like Eastwoods westerns, but they're hardly realistic.  But...dayum...."The Unforgiven" was a good-un!

I get this feeling that the good old days of Westerns are going to go the way of the classical comedy if they haven't already...(You know, the comedy where 4 letter words were not necessary to get a good laugh)
