Posts from MartyB2 in thread „What Are Your Favourite Non-Duke Westerns?“

    Like ZS_Maverick I too enjoy the Western genre. There are many, many westerns that I enjoy but there are three mini series and two theatrical releases that make the top of my list:


    LONESOME DOVE...the best western ever made not a mistep any where..."A man that wouldn't cheat doesn't want a poke bad enough."..."Just once in my life I'd like to shoot at an educated man."
    CENTENNIAL.........every episode is good but the mountain men/cattle drive is top drawer
    SON OF THE MORNING STAR....(and the companion piece CRAZY HORSE) certainly not totally correct but closer than any other visual representation to date
    SHANE...still great after all these years and Jack Palance with "Prove it"...wow
    BROKEN ARROW...Jimmy Stewart is very good but Jay Silverheels as Geronimo sends chills down your spine with..."This is Apache Land, it is Cochise Land and where Cochise lives...no white man can live!!!"


    Like the rest of you I can go on and on...MAJOR DUNDEE, TOMBSTONE, WILL PENNY, LAST COMMAND, 2004 ALAMO, OPEN RANGE, all TNT Tom Selleck movies...LITTLE BIG MAN, DANCES WITH WOLVES...I could be doing this all night
