Check out "The Drop" if you haven't seen it already. It stars James Gandolfini in his last role before dying while on vacation in Italy. It also stars Tom Hardy as the two main characters. It can be a bit slow moving at times, but the end is worth the wait.

Yes old, foreign, new it doesn’t matter

One of my favorite older westerns is "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" starring James Stewart, John Wayne, Andy Devine, Lee Marvin, Strother Martin, Lee Van Cleef, Vera Miles, Edmond O'Brien and Woody Strode.

Newer westerns include "Silverado" and "Open Range". Both are pretty fast moving westerns with great casts.

If you want really obscure, give "The Ruling Class" a look. It stars Peter O'Toole and he's likely the only actor you'd be familiar with since the rest are older British actors. It is a bit off-beat but funny as hell once you get into it.

Here are a couple of others if you haven't seen them "Things Change" starring Don Ameche and "Being There" starring Peter Sellers.
