Little Big Man
The professionals w/ Burt Lancaster was pretty good.
Happy New Year to you too!
not bad
The list is a good one.
Never been a huge Burt Lancaster fan. I'm not sure why.
I like some of those as great westerns as well.
Yep, both versions.
I take it you like it better than the list of hollywood babes on the other thread.....
Darn, in my list I forgot to mention "Chato's Land" with Charles Bronson. Great movie, and to me, Bronson is right up there but just a hair below John Wayne.
I like Silverado, too.
Understand... but I ilked Vera Cruz also. Only two I really liked with . I think there was one with him as an Indian also that was fair.
The Professionals is a good one to check out if ya have time .

I love westerns, but Little Big Man was definitely my favorite. The Good, Bad and Ugly would be second. True Grit was great. Stagecoach was good. Hard to choose the rest, but Little Big Man is my pick for first.
Yeah, the Hollywood babes list was weak.
How about a top 30 Hollywood skanks list?
Though not a western, The Quiet Man, in my opinion is the best John Wayne Movie ever made. (also Red River). I never get tired of watching it re-run.
Indeed.......albeit not a western what was the one where he was running from the Canadian mounties ...Lee MArvin was in it also...??
Good grief, I made need to hire you as a consultant next time I post anything about westerns. Cheers!
"How about a top 30 Hollywood skanks list?"
It would need to be a top 3000, there are so many out there.
The G,B&U is a love or hate it type. I love it. The music & Eli Wallach steal the show.
Paris Hilton x 30........there yer list.........:o)
