Monte Walsh

It was done twice, first with Lee Marvin and then with Tom Selleck.
I would recommend watching both.

Good list.

I'd add High Noon (1952) with Gary Cooper.

Also Shane (1953) with Alan Ladd.

Yes, scrub his war movies but never his westerns.

And I missed a big one - Silverado, with Costner, Scott Glenn, Kevin Cline, Danny Glover, Dennehy, Cleese and Jeff Goldblum. Can't for the life of me remember the name of the little bartender called Stella. She stole the whole thing IMO.

Does "Dances with Wolves" classify?
I loved it but inexplicably nobody else did... 😞

Maybe I was harsh about Wayne ... Stagecoach was classic.
He was hampered by a lack of acting ability which wasn't his fault..

I rather like Missouri Breaks (with Nicholson and Brando) but the critics and the paying public didn't.
