Pretty much what I think.

Gritty, urban 70s cinema tastes killed the westerns.

Although, A lot of westerns made after it's heyday I liked.

Outlaw Josey Wales, Silverado, Pale Rider, Lonesome Dove, dances with wolves , Unforgiven. We're all strong in their own ways.

The Big Country starred Gregory Peck, Charlton Heston, Burl Ives, Chuck Conner, and Charles Bickford. It was 'epic'.

As for Wayne, I'll cast a vote for Liberty Valance.
I could never stand the Pecker head rest of that cast is golden!

Have you ever noticed that Pale Rider is pretty much a remake of Shane combined with a bit of High Plains Drifter?

Barquero (1970)
Chato's Land (1972)
Hardcase (1972)
High Plains Drifter (1973)
Billy Two Hats (1974)
Outlaw Josey Wales (1976)
Barbarosa (1982)
Lonesome Dove (1989)
Unforgiven (1992)

I like Gregory Peck. Pork Chop Hill, Guns of Navarone, Cape Fear (1962), The Omen - the dude was in a lot of great movies.




Outlaw Josey Wales


Anybody else think the movie bogged down a bit after Josey gets his new "family"? I was really hoping Eastwood would have gunned down the old woman and the carpetbagger. Still a great movie. Little trivia: The author of the book was a white supremacist.

Shane was a POS the kids whine made me want him gunned down.



That was a movie Hollywood thought a western should be. Not at all what a fan wants.

I completely agree. That potato headed tard annoyed the hell out of me. Alan Ladd was completely wrong for the part of Shane too. The man was 3 feet tall. Jack Palance was good though.

Shane is a classic!


And yes, Pale Rider was basically a knockoff of Shane.

The plot is solid, but the casting ruined it for me.

That must have been his answer to the Dirty Harry series and westerns were starting to die out in the early 70s.
Trivia note:

John Wayne (and Frank Sinatra) turned down the role of Dirty Harry.

Hard to picture either of them in DH. They made the right choice.
