Loads more as well!! It’s gonna take some time but I’ll try and whittle it down into ten. There are no spaghetti’s cos that’ll just do my nut in. I’ve only just worked out my Spaghetti Western Top Twenty. Intergrating spaghetti’s and non spaghettis will fry my brain.
Haha. I hate trying to cast out some of my favourites to make a list of only a few. You’ve got some good ones in there. Some that I’d forgotten about, or never even seen.

My Darling Clementine
Stagecoach
High Noon
She Wore A Yellow Ribbon
The Wild Bunch
Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid
The Ox Bow Incident
The Naked Spur
I cant help feeling like I’ve forgotten something. One spaghetti in there and it’s my clear favourite. Gotta mention Costner’s Dances With Wolves and Open Range. Tombstone as well cos thats a great movie. And Three Amigos!!
i would make a list too but its bascially the same as alot of peoples already…but i guess my top two are “TGTB&TU” and “the Searchers”…as far as the newer western movies, “The Assassination of Jesse James” has been the best western in the past…geez…i dont know how many years…and on a side note…i dont think No Country for Old men" officially counts as a western…i mean, its kind of western influenced…shit, Cormac McCarthy is famous for writing westerns, but “No Country” is not one of them
