Open Range - bought the DVD, best gunfight.
The Shootist - Wayne at his best
True Grit - One good line and one good scene "Fill your hand you son-of-a*****!"
The Unforgiven - Excellent
Silverado - Hokey , but fun to watch.
High Noon - Tic tock .. great flick.

You need to add Tombstone to this list. :)


Oh... and whenever it's on, I can't seem to not watch "Once Upon a Time in the West".

They had a double disc set on sale at the movie store this weekend, both James Garner movies......

Support your local gunfighter

Support your local Sheriff

And of course one of my favorite newer westerns, Maverick.  I loved the twist at the end, loved having Garner in the movie.

Duke said that film bothered him more than any he'd ever done. He didn't like portraying that indian-hating character at all. Really got to him. Maybe that's why he said he'd never try mehtod acting again. Didn't like feeling not himself.

Never understood the fascination with the notion that some actor had to be a hero in real life to be admired for the films they did. You couldnt pay me to watch Audie Murphy, despite the fact he is a bon afide WW2 hero, means nothing to me about the films he did...or John Wayne. I liked the work Wayne did onscreen, I could care less what he did, or didnt do, in real life.

I dont think Eastwood ever arrested anybody. I can still like Dirty Harry cant I?
