Interesting post, marky-mark.

I'm curious to know more on yr middle man ideas surrounding Cable Hogue. I've never heard this theory before.
They are arguably my fave 3 also, so please tell!!

This was great and extremely helpful thread and I can't think of any other old movies to add.
But I was wondering what you all think of the newer westerns to come out such as 3:10 to Yuma, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, and one of my recent favorites, The Proposition (which was written by Nick Cave of all people).

tombstone is by far my personal favorite, but i like pretty much anything that has John Wayne in it :] and 3:10 to Yuma was an AWESOME modern-day western!
