Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid [DVD] [1969]
3.  Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid [DVD] [1969] DVD ~ Paul Newman

Rio Bravo [DVD] [1959]
6.  Rio Bravo [DVD] [1959] DVD ~ John Wayne
The list author says:
  "Howard Hawks's answer to "High Noon," Wayne as the quintessential pro, Deano as the town drunk and Walter Brennan as the epitome of grumpy. "That's all you got?" Yeah - but everyone counts ..."

Desperado [DVD] [2011]
7.  Desperado [DVD] [2011] DVD ~ Antonio Banderas
The list author says:
  "Tarrantino buddy Robert Rodriguez's postmodern Western pyrotechnics. Antonio Banderas stars as the mysterious Mariachi, but sidekick Buscemi all but steals the show - and a guitar was never so lethal."

The Wild Bunch [DVD] [1969]
8.  The Wild Bunch [DVD] [1969] DVD ~ William Holden
The list author says:
  "The swan song on the Old West and its movies only Peckinpah could've come up with. This ain't Butch Cassidy's "Wild Bunch" - and the final shootout is a seminal piece of the choreography of violence."

The list author says:
  "The 2 movies that solidified Eastwood's image as the lone Western gunman ("Outlaw Josie Wales," "Pale Rider") and his critical 1992 revival of the genre ("Unforgiven"). They done him wrong ..."

10.  John Wayne DVD Gift Set DVD ~ John Wayne
The list author says:
  "A deck of the Duke's best, plus Hawks, Ford, Deano, Mitchum, Stewart, Caan & more. "El Dorado" is "Rio Bravo" redux, just gotta love old Rooster - and "The Shootist" is Wayne's personal legacy!"

12.  Ox-Bow Incident [DVD] [1943] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] DVD ~ Henry Fonda
The list author says:
  "Mob mentality, injustice and Henry Fonda standing up for civilization (in that, it's similar to his "12 Angry Men," but less clear-cut). Fonda's pet project, based on Walter Van Tilburg Clark's novel."

The list author says:
  ""Come back, Shane!" Alan Ladd's best film, epitomizing the genre's "good vs. evil" stance (Eastwood's "Pale Rider" in particular is "Shane" redux). And to think that Jack Palance couldn't even ride..."
