Once Upon a Time in the West > The Searchers

But Red River is probably the quintessential American Western. I mean they're driving cattle...and staking claims to land...and fighting...and John Wayne at his peak.

Once Upon a Time in the West is not only my favorite western, it is my favorite movie period.

This, all day long. Gus was one of the best characters to grace the screen.

That was good. I like that his most modern pick was from 1971.

He and Ed Harris did a great job making Appaloosa (2008) which is terribly underappreciated. The shootout scene is awesome and a jab at modern westerns by Ed Harris.

"That was fast."

"Everybody could shoot."
