1.The Good Old Boys starring: Margaret Bowman, Wilford Brimley, Matt Damon, Jeff Gore, James N. Harrell September 02, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $20.98
Why can I not get a DVD for this movie? I have been waiting for years for a DVD and still nothing.

2.Texas Across the River starring: Dean Martin, Alain Delon, Rosemary Forsyth, Joey Bishop, Tina Aumont directed by: Michael Gordon November 24, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $23.88
Got this for a friend of mine. Came on time and he enjoyed it very much.

3.Tombstone starring: Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, Sam Elliott, Bill Paxton, Powers Boothe directed by: George P. Cosmatos November 11, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Love the DVD. My VCR tape finally wore out. I can really understand the words better- much clearer than the tape. This is a must have in every home if you like a good action packed movie that has serious moments, good laughs and great lines about how to think about life and living in it. Val Kilmer, Kurt Russell and Sam Elliott at their best.

4.Rio Conchos starring: Richard Boone, Stuart Whitman, Anthony Franciosa, Jim Brown, Wende Wagner directed by: Gordon Douglas January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $18.00
Richard Boone carries this rather uneven Western, with superb support from a stellar cast, although Whitman's role is disappointingly small - THE COMANCHEROS is a better choice for Whitman fans. Boone's is a rare blend of tough-guy savagery and rough-edged humanity, and contemporary Hollywood is starved for the authentic manliness that actors like Boone once brought to the screen. Factor in his distinctively droll humor, and you have that indefinable Star Power so elusive today. Granted, the film - as noted in previous reviews - is startlingly violent, but it is not gratuitously so. On the contrary, the movie trades Hollywood-style storytelling for realism. There are no "good soldiers" or ... Read More

5.Little Big Man starring: Dustin Hoffman, Faye Dunaway, Chief Dan George, Martin Balsam, Richard Mulligan directed by: Arthur Penn January 10, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.88
Dustin Hoffman is great in this classic Western. It's one of the best Westerns out there. Hoffman plays a cavalry man who ends up living among the Native Americans. It's a bitter story of how poorly and unjustly were these people treated. Unfortunately, they're not faring much better today and the government does not treat them better either. There are some truths in this movie that we're still not willing to face and come to grips with today. This should be a required material for school kids and grown ups alike. We'd be much more grateful for what we have instead of complaining for what we can't buy if we thought about these things more.

6.Across the Wide Missouri starring: Clark Gable, Ricardo Montalban, John Hodiak, Adolphe Menjou, J. Carrol Naish directed by: William A. Wellman September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $12.99
It is impossible to watch this at time breathtakingly beautiful movie without sadness not least because what survives is a mere fraction of the movie made by the great William Wellman -the studio interfered in the picture excising great swathes of the footage Wellman shot and adding a ponderous voice over narration declaimed in sonourous mannner by Howard Keel which adds nothing to the picture whatsoever . It is a movie about the destruction of a way of life -that of the mountain men .The source material is a novel by Bernard de Soto which is based on the life of one such man , Flint Mitchell ,who controlled the trade with the Blackfoot Indians in the Rockies during the 1820,s .In many ways he was the very incarnation of the pioneer spirit , a trader and adventurer married to a Native American ,and ...

7.The Virginian starring: Bill Pullman, Diane Lane, James Drury, John Savage, Dennis Weaver July 11, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.94
There are no words to describe how SLOW this movie was from beginning to end, but let me try anyway so as to give people a fair chance to avoid it and thus try and prevent their day/evening from being ruined: the film deals with the story of a schoolteacher from New England who meets a Virginian cowboy on the plains of Wyoming. The presence of Bill Pullman and Diane Lane did very little to alleviate the pain of watching this slooow and boooring mooovie... In addition, Diane Lane's character was way to pushy/bossy/feminist for late 19th century, making it rather unrealistic. As for the supporting characters, this film does not seem to be their thing, and subsequently they look like they are out of place. In relation to the plot and the dialogues, they are way beyond "below average." ... Read More

8.The Lone Ranger starring: Clayton Moore, Jay Silverheels, Lyle Bettger, Bonita Granville, Perry Lopez directed by: Stuart Heisler January 30, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $24.96
I purchased this movie for my parents, so I haven't viewed it! My mom was surprised and excited when she opened it for Christmas, though! I'm sure it will be just as they remember The Lone Ranger!

9.Rio Grande (1950) starring: John Wayne, Maureen O'Hara, Ben Johnson, Claude Jarman Jr., Harry Carey Jr. directed by: John Ford January 12, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Another one of my favorite movies with John Wayne and the whole John Ford crew. The scene where Ben Johnson, Harry Carey Jr., and Claude Jarman Jr. ride two Horses Roman style (that's standing on the two horse's backs) was actually done by them, not stuntmen! They just don't make them like that anymore.

10.Geronimo (1962) starring: Chuck Connors, Kamala Devi, Pat Conway, Armando Silvestre, Adam West directed by: Arnold Laven September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.78
I viewed this movie as a decent Western, if taken as pure American mythology, in the same spirit as Longfellow's "Song of Hiawatha". Unlike, however, Longfellow's epic and flowing lyric, "Geronimo" gets bogged down in some noticably stupid aspects; most obviously, the ludicrous casting of the blonde/blue eyed Chuck Connors as the lead. Although, it appeared as though real Native Americans were cast as extras, all major Apache roles seemed to be filled by whites. Another imbecility was that the beautiful actress who played Geronimo's wife was repeatly seen in the middle of the New Mexican/Mexican wilderness perfectly suited in nice clean clothes, perfect hair and make-up. I didn't know that Apache women used Avon products. The illiterate Geronimo is also seen pontificating to his Apache warriors like ... Read More
