1. Once Upon A Time In The West.... this movie made me realize what a badass Bronson is. He may not have been a great actor but his presence was all that was needed to let you know that he was a bad motherfucker.. him playing the eery sounding harmonica was strictly gangster... everything from the scenery to the soundtracks were just top notch in this film.

2. Unforgiven

3. The Searchers

4. The good bad and ugly

5. High Noon

[Dark Lord Al]

Blazing Saddles.

No spoilers.....but one of the most wtf endings there is. Cast of brothers
The Good, the bad and the ugly is right up there equal. Also The Outlaw Josey Wales..Broken Arrow..Little Big Man were epic!!

Nice list Finito, I'm a western fan and love all those movies. Butch Cassidy and the sundance kid, A fistful of dollars and a Few dollars more are also pure classics imo.

Most people will have seen the Magnificent Seven, but check out Seven Samurai, the Japanese film it's entirely based on. English subtitles and therefore not a "western" I guess?(completely has the feel), but an unbelievably good movie that just pisses on most any action/adventure film ever made imo.

In recent years, The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford(way to long a title) was awesome, as well as the remake of True grit, much better than the original John Wayne version. No country for old men is also a great movie.

Ironically Kurosawa's inspiration for Seven Samurai was John Ford westerns.

High Plains Drifter is one of my favourite films ever.

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly - this is a no brainer #1 for me, it's in my top 3 favorite movies of all time. Absolute masterpiece.

Unforgiven, Tombstone, Fistful of Dollars (a remake of Kurosawa's great Yojimbo since we're talking about Kurosawa), the Wild Bunch, The Searchers, Rio Bravo, and Stagecoach are also great.
