MaryAnne Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Growing up my father always watched westerns. I think his favorite is "Shane," followed by a random sampling of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood. I however, never really took to westerns until I saw "Winchester '73" with Jimmy Stewart (and a very young James Best) several years ago. I now dig westerns. LOLSo....favorite westerns??

Brian Coltrane Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Westerns! Don't even get me started. To the already great lists, lemme add one from several years ago. "The Quick and the Dead" with Sharon Stone. Also dug "The Alamo" which came out a couple years back. My all-time favs are the classics already mentioned, and more too numerous too list. But I'm glad that Hollywood still cranks out new ones once in awhile. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val Strate Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 I always did like Mclintock. Plus another favorite of mine is Quigley Down Under, Tom Selleck was the hero in this one. And another one I saw just recently on video which was on TV apparently at one time but now on video, is 'Johnson County War'. I think 'Johnson County War' is my favorite though. Burt Reynolds plays a character in there named 'Hunt Lawton' and I tell you he's an ornery cuss in that movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miz_smarteepantz Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 McClintock is another one of my favorites, pretty much give me a John Wayne and I'm a happy camper as long as it's a western and not one of his war movies I don't like those.Brandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redneck woman Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 John Wayne is so awesome. I grew up watching all of his movies that my mom could find. Some of my favorites include Rio Bravo with Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson. I love the scene with the singing. I also like El Dorado and North to Alaska among others. Now I'm going to have that Johnny Horton song in my head all day. *sings* North to Alaska go north the rush is on, North to Alaska go north the rush is on. Big Sam left Seattle in the year of ninety two... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
