I sometimes get watching westerns and wondered what other movies other people liked.

What's your favorite westerns? 
I like Silverado and Tombstone for newer ones, but would have to go with Outlaw Jose Wales, WInchester 73 or Rio Bravo.

    Once Upon a Time in the West is my absolute favorite western, but Winchester 73 and Red River are tied for second. 
    I like all the Sergione Leone spaghetti westerns with Clint Eastwood also.

    Red River would be one of my favorites. She wore a yellow ribbon in my top5 with Outlaw Jose Wales, Rio Bravo/Eldorado, and the original Stagecoach.

    Quigley down under is good although it's not set in what I would call the traditional west.

    Also pretty much any movie adaptation of a Louis L'amour book. I'm partial to the Sacketts with Tom Selleck and Sam Elliott

    Any Clint or John Wayne will do it, was watching a JW the other night and noticed the backdrop was the mountains out in the backyard.
    Of course Lonesome Dove...“I won’t say I did and I won’t say I didn’t, but I will say that a man who wouldn’t cheat for a poke don’t want one bad enough.”
    A little dirt never hurt

    I stayed at a Best Western once...good time
    Cigars were made to be smoked, whiskey was made to be drank and women were made to be loved. The only thing I try to age is myself.

    When I read the title of the thread, my first thoughts were Little Big Man and Tombstone, then I read all the stuff above, and now I see that there are just too many films crowding the top of that list.
