Top 10 Westerns
what
components make a western truly great? That depends
on who's asking, as there are so many subgenres
and different takes. There's the classic,
the Spaghetti western, the singing cowboy western,
the comedy western and the contemporary western.
We tend to favor the slow-moving epics à la
Leone over fast shoot-'em-ups, and our gunslingers
and cowboys to be complex, stoic characters faced
with morally difficult situations we believe are
microcosms for all of life. There were many contenders
for this very American genre—even though
some of the finest were shot by an Italian. We've
also tried to include a couple of rare choices
that do not easily spring to mind, such as the
Australian oeuvre "The Proposition."
After all, you can Google John Wayne yourself. But
what list of top westerns would be complete without
The Duke?
