There’s no movie genre more patently “American” True Westerns —the visually breathtaking work of genre auteurs like Howard than the Western, and perhaps none more Hawks, John Ford, Sam Peckinpah, and Sergio Leone—are more like Greek generally misunderstood. Squeaky-clean heroes mythology set to an open range, where the difference between “good” and versus categorical evil-doers? Not so much. “bad” is often slim and sometimes none.

There’s no movie genre more patently “American” True Westerns —the visually breathtaking work of genre auteurs like Howard than the Western, and perhaps none more Hawks, John Ford, Sam Peckinpah, and Sergio Leone—are more like Greek generally misunderstood. Squeaky-clean heroes mythology set to an open range, where the difference between “good” and versus categorical evil-doers? Not so much. “bad” is often slim and sometimes none. If we’re missing one of your favorites here, rest assured this is a first installment of an ongoing salute to this most epic of all genres: the Western.
