Favorite Western Film

What is your favorite Western film?

I just finished watching "The Magnificent Seven" with Yule Brynner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Eli Wallach, and Robert Vaughn.

I saw it at Wall Mart for less than $10 and it's too good to pass up.

Can't beat that list. Watched J. Johnson the other day for the first time in years. The h2h stuff is very good, none of this thirty minute slug fest, quick and brutal.

"They Died With Their Boots On" (1941). Starred Errol Flynn as General Custer and Olivia DeHaviland as his wife (she was hot!). It portrayed Custer sympathetically, and ended (as could be expected) tragically.
