"Unforgiven" is my all time favourite Western...........and then Pekinpah's "The Wild Bunch" followed by "The Good the Bad and the Ugly".............

And I just love Leone's use of Morricone's musical scores for his westerns.....to me they are the stars of his shows........

I do really like the Artistic Direction + Cinematograpy in Ang Lee's "Ride with the Devil"............it's a beautiful film to look at but I don't think that it is aiming for classic western status........more like an nuanced enhancement of the genre.............(shit I could cop crap for that statement...........55555)
