I've always liked Westerns and I've seen most of
them from the good to the bad and the ugly -
pun intended. My question is, in your opinion,
what is The greatest Western of all time?
Not an easy choice to be sure but for me it's clear:
"Lonesome Dove". And your choice is?

Unforgiven is probably my favorite but I’m going to do a Mia and pontificate. I’m also kind of partial to Pale Rider … something about the supernatural aspects of it, but not as problematic as certain scenes in
High Plains Drifter.
I struggle with Outlaw Josey Wales because of the pro-confederacy aspects
and the fact that the author was a hard core segregationist. Otherwise, it’s a pretty good movie.
For pure fun though, I’d have to consider Tombstone. Val Kilmer
performance as Doc Holiday is easily the greatest in the genre. And
likewise the Young Guns movies are also a lot of fun.
The production quality of the spaghetti westerns keep them from
consideration in being my favorites even with the great anti-hero tropes.

Earlier westerns rarely do it for me as I think the acting and scripts are so bad.
So with all that, I’m sticking with Unforgiven. It’s just too good.

I like High Noon
Anything with Gene Hackman is better than anything without him so probably Unforgiven. I probably liked Tombstone as much as any western I've ever seen.

Asked this of my mom, her response was Broken Arrow.
She has been watching westerns since the 50s and now with cable TV
possibly seen every western ever made. Her TV is on permanent rotation between INSP, ScreenPix Western Channel, Me-TV (daytime Gunsmoke,
Bonanza, The Rifleman, Wagon Train), and any other occasional western
show she can find.
