    Here are my picks for the top ten westerns of all time. Now I know this isn't necessarily a historical question or comment, but we all know we love top ten lists. So here goes in no particular order;1. The Searchers2. Lonsome Dove3. Dances with Wolves4. Open Range5. Unforgiven6. High Noon7. Quigley Down Under8. Once upon a time in the West9. Tombstone10. The Outlaw Josey WalesI would like to give honorable mention to almost any western Jimmy Stewart ever made, and of course Blazing Saddles.

    I don't usually like Westerns much, but Sergio Corbucci's The Great Silence with Klaus Kinski is cult!http://www.moviemail-online.co.uk/sleeve/larger/18917.JPGAnd of course The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is a classic.

    Welcome Fritz! Interesting choice. Thats a movie I've never heard of. Was that made around the time Sergio Leone was making his westerns?

    Yes, late 60s. It was a cult movie in Germany, maybe not anywhere else. 😛
