Dances with wolves
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

This. 100%, although I'd swap the order. No competition.

Pale Rider is great, but a blatant 'Shane' rip-off.

Surprised it took until page 9 to get a mention. After the Dollars movies its probably my favourite.

'Pale Rider' was mentioned on Page 1, and 'Shane' Page 2.

 

[RJs shoes]

All the classics have probably been mentioned but the massively underrated Little Big Man is one of my favourites.
Funny, brutal and thought provoking in turns.

'Today is a good day to die'.

Some generous soul has uploaded the full version of 'The Good, The Bad & The Ugly' on to Youtube. Not seen it for a good few years. About half an hour in, its just as brilliant as I remember,

It is like. The comment below the Youtube clip is great - "The single most classic gunfight in the history of Westerns. The tension is palpable...even the dog couldn't take it anymore..."

 

[hertsmackem]

anyone seen The Hired Hand?

 

[riffraff]

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid.

There's a handful of others, but the genre in general is a load of shite.

They’re just crime fillums with horses instead of cars.

Errrrh legends by definition aren’t real.
Yer western Fillum plots are mainly crime fillum plots.
