How about those good old westerns,the best western movie I've ever seen was the magnificent seven. what's your

Once Upon a Time in the West

Just watch the opening scene. It's Leone's masterpiece, in my estimation. By using operatic symbols, sounds, and images, "Once Upon in the West" both simultaneously references the deconstruction of the western genre (and the actual plain itself) while being altogether progressive in its approach to film theory. What you have is essentially the most "cinematic" Western ever made.

I'd have to say The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly or Foe a Few More Dollars for old western. Ennio Ennio Morricone is possibly the greatest movie composer of all time.

As for new western is a toss up between Young Guns and Tombstone. To compare the catch phrases of Billy the Kid versus Doc Holiday... tough call.

"The Magnificent Seven"

"The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly"

"For a Few Dollars More"

"Hang 'Em High"

"Unforgiven"

"Tombstone"

"Open Range"

"Young Guns"

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence, the best. Followed by Tombstone, and Shane.

favourites are

The good, the bad and the ugly

Little Big Man

True Grit

McCabe and Mrs Miller

the Magnicent seven does nothing for me , I've seen Seven Samurai (on which it is based) it is a much, much better film.

"the man with no name" trylogy:

For a Fistful of Dollars

For a Few Dollars More

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Anything with Clint Eastwood.

My favorites are:

Lonesome Dove

Tombstone

Wyatt Earp

...oh, hands down!!! "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly", of course!!! (...the ending, coupled with composer Ennio Morricone's gripping musical score...oh, the Ecstasy of Gold...is quite chilling!!!)

I liked "the unforgiven" by Eastwood, his last western. also, the Shootist....
