  • I just rewatched this one again, for the fourth time and I love it. I think that it is just fantastic from beginning to end. I would argue that this is the best movies he ever made, or at least the best western. It's one of those movies that doesn't get stale with repeated viewings!

    dc65,
    I couldn't agree with you more! There are so many layers to the story, that are revealed the more you watch the film.

  • Following on from my last post. Whilst The Searchers is the original soundtrack but it also has quite a bit of hiss/crackle. If they had bothered remastering or cleaning it up it would have been great.

  • Hi all,
    I love "The Searchers". Casting,Directing ,Cinematography All is great.
    and soundtrack is so wonderfull.
    Titlle song is reminds me wide open spaces east Texas(but,actually it was
    taken Monument Valley)
    The Searchers is unquestionably one of the top western films of all time.

  • I only have one of the comics (The Conqueror), Jim. The others that I am posting are examples I found elsewhere on the web over time. I do have all the books I am posting, though. That is where my interest was when I was collecting. The books I could afford, but the comics always seemed to be out of my price range.

  • That's a very nice piece you have there, H.sanada. I bet that would look real nice in a frame on the wall.

  • Hello H.sanada,

    I don't put them on as attatchments, I put them in my photos. Look below your name in the post above. If you click on the my photos count (your's is 0), it will take you to a page where you can put photos. You are allowed up to 100 photos in your gallery. Then you just link to that picture in your post. I have to trim my down a little, I have 94 in my gallery. I hope that answeres your question.
