High Plains Drifter
El Dorado
The Way of the Gun

Any list without Lonesome Dove in it, is suspect!

Lonesome Dove shouldn't be on any of these lists. The topic is top five all time Western movies, not Western miniseries.

The Westerner with Gary Cooper and Walter Brennen as Judge Roy Bean is a good one

The Searchers is a must watch [look for Festus (Ken Curtis) as a singing cowboy]

High Noon - Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly

River of No Return - Robert Mitchum and Marilyn Monroe

Flaming Star with Elvis as the son of a Kiowa mother and a Texan father

Hombre with Paul Newman

Stagecoach (the original)

Shane

The Shepherd of the Hills with John Wayne and Harry Carey, Sr.

Shane
Searchers
Unforgiven
Outlaw Josey Wales
The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

1. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
2. Once Upon a Time in the West
3. Outlaw Josey Wales
4. The Wild Bunch
5. The Searchers

I could probably flip flop 3, 4, and 5 depending on the week.

The Shepherd of the Hills with John Wayne and Harry Carey, Sr.
