What's shaking?

I'm doing research on Western's. What is your top 10. If you dont't have a top 10, then best, top 3 or 5 will do.

Peace in the Middle East
Brian De Palma “Repeat yourself-only better.”

I knew that if I had the chance to direct a film that it would be an unpleasant experience, which it was and still is and never ends because one has a million chances to control things and people. Especially people and things, things and people. Controlling people . . . it's just hateful, it's the most horrible thing in the world and I'm very vindictive and unforgiving and punishing and it's horrible. And I knew I would be sucked in and I would have to control the food at craft service and I would have to control everything and if one thing didn't go right I would have to punish everyone. -Vincent Gallo

I think Sergio Corbucci's Django series is by far the greatest of westerns.

I've been wanting to see a lot more. Glad somebody made this thread, I won't have to ask for recommendations.

butch cassidy & the sundance kid
mccabe & mrs. miller
rio bravo
the searchers

I'm renting Dead Man from netflix...it should be on it's way soon. That movie looks fucking awesome. I'm gonna make a point to see The Good The Bad and The Ugly too. I can't believe I've never seen that...or The Wild Bunch, I've never seen that either.

I remember seeing this really bad one called True Grit. That's the only western I've seen that I haven't liked.
