Which of these western movies is best

[Quasar44]

Wild bunch

Searchers

High Noon

The man who shot Liberty V

Butch Cassidy

 

[EvilEyeFleegle]

The Searchers..by a mile~

All these are better than all those:

The Long Riders

The Outlaw Josie Wales

Little Big Man

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Deadwood: the Series

 

[excalibur]

The Searchers, which is also one of the greatest movies ever made.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Wild bunch

Searchers

High Noon

The man who shot Liberty V

Butch Cassidy

From a standpoint of a movie buff watching a movie with innovative directing and editing, High Noon is the top. For a pure watch the movie and forget it's a movie, Searchers with MWSLV a very close second.

I'm on board with Fleegle's list above, except that I'm not a fan of the Spaghetti Western.

Fort Apache was a great one, but maybe more of a cavalry movie than a western?

I just watched Little Big man again... I think its up there...

I'm not a Sergio fan either...but...I do like the scope of the G,B&U~

For new stuff...1883, the 1923/Yellowstone Pre-prequel was pristine. Some of the best cinematography out there. Paramount+

1883 (TV Mini Series 2021–2022) ⭐ 8.7 | Drama, Western

1h | TV-MA

Butch and Sundance is my favorite but there are tons of great westerns... I wish Hollywood would do more but they would just mess it up with gay cowboys or something.....

"Western" is a big tent. Jeff Bridges modern western "Hell and High Water" ranks pretty high for me. The Shootist with the Duke is watchable.

Jeff Bridges is one of the best actors I have ever seen

J Andrews in Sound of Music was gritty and very realistic .

 

[themirrorthief]

the magnificent seven...nice
Jeremiah JOhnson....awesome

 

[Quasar44]

Once upon a Time in the WEST, Good, Bad, Ugly and Unforgiven are superb

These 3 are the best so far and not even close

Outlaw Wales was only great the first half
