Think I'm getting a Western bug

[dochudson]

Clint Eastwood days.. all the spaghetti westerns plus Unforgiven.
John Wayne days.. The Searchers, True Grit, Stagecoach, Red River, Rio Bravo, Big Jake, McLintock!
Odds and Ends days.. The Wild Bunch, Blazing Saddles, Cat Ballou, Shane, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Magnificent Seven,
at least once every winter a Lonesome Dove weekend.

"The Proposition" with Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone, Emily Watson, and others you'll recognize. John Hurt makes a kick-ass appearance as the philosopher/bounty hunter Jellon Lamb. It's a little slow at times, but very cerebral Western set in Australia.

Many great westerns have already been mention and several have listed Tombstone, Val Kilmer was amazing as Doc Holliday. Anything with John Wayne would be on my list as well as Lonesome Dove and Open Range. Now I'm not sure this is a true western because of the time period but "Last of the Mohicans" IMO is pretty special as well.

I'm going to make an educated guess to Lawrence's trivia question. Not sure because I was a little kid ...DeForest Kelley?

+1 on all of the previous recommendations.

Also:

Monte Walsh (Tom Selleck)

Tall in the Saddle (for all of you Duke-a-philes- a great old movie)

Huge John Wayne fan. For comedy kinda western North to Alaska is good. Also one of his older movies Angel and the bad man. Also non western John Wayne that gets overlooked is Hitari. Rounding up animals for a zoo.
