Yeah, I haven't seen that yet (though I am interested in it) but whenever I watch anything that isn't sports, I pretty much need to watch it on my own, because I go absolutely crazy if I'm trying to follow the plot of something, only to have people constantly talking over it. I can get pretty nasty if I'm watching something and people start trying to talk to me LOL
He he it´s quite ironic that someone would talk over a film with very few spoken Words LOL. I enjoyed this one too., and thankfully no one ruined the movie for me with talk Big smile

Almost forgot, also watched this short film:



This is what the director of movies like In Bruges and Three Billboards made first. Already shows plenty of darkly comic brilliance. I overlooked that I had this on the DVD extras of Three Billboards until yesterday. Embarrassed

40's colour western. Also part of John Ford's cavalry trilogy. I didn't especially prefer this or Rio Grande - both had their strengths and weaknesses.

Darkly amusing, as expected. a 70's gem.

Black and white 50's cavalry western starring John Wayne and directed by John Ford. A bit too much singing in this one for my taste. 



Another favourite I haven't watched in a while. For me this is one of the most underrated movies of this decade.



I thought I would give this another go but I found I enjoyed it less on a re-watch. The things they changed and took out of the story from the game really detracts from the story it's supposed to tell IMO.

Fairly entertaining, at least better than the last one:

Re-watch of one of my favourite Eastwood westerns.



The last Eastwood western I hadn't seen, not counting early minor roles. More comedic than usual. 



Watched it years ago and always meant to watch it again, but for some reason only just got in a second viewing. 



Much improved on the first film, a great neo-western. 



A comedy favourite I haven't watched in a while.

In a word: crap.



Everyone who watched this told me not to bother, I found the opposite to be true. Maybe not reading the book gave me a different perspective.



A bit too obviously low budget to be a truly great movie, but it does a lot on very little. I'm looking forward to watching the sequels. 



They intentionally gave this movie a really dull sounding premise. It turns dark really quickly.

My 100th western movie seen. Seemed fitting to make it a classic. 



Very good psychological thriller film, featuring a story within a story.

True Grit's sequel. Not as good but an enjoyable western.

Very entertaining!



Dirty Harry's final film is his weakest, but still pretty good. Did a double take when I spotted Guns n Roses during a funeral scene, even after hearing their music earlier in the film. 



Second watch of this one. Definitely a keeper. A sad but compelling movie.

A good western set during the Civil War, where the Union and Confederates reluctantly team up to stop a marauding Apache. A bit overlong in the end, but mostly very good early Sam Peckinpah work.

The fourth Dirty Harry movie proves to be a bit of a step down again, but still very enjoyable. 



Even in the hands of another director, this Tarantino scripted movie proves just as essential viewing for any fan of his work.

Real obscure 70's western. Despite mumbling's around the internet of it being a hidden gem, it's actually a real low budget movie that's short on actual plot (those lines on the poster? Pretty much complete fabrication) and 'The Indian' is unfortunately played by a white actor, which seems real bad in a movie that puts a black man and a Native America as its two leads characters. 

Also neither of them is called Charley One-Eye. Charley One-Eye was a fucking chicken. 

Weird film. Worth watching I guess if you enjoy westerns as much as I do and want to see something unusual, otherwise not recommended. Had potential to be so much more.

Solid western.



Excellent western.



Another decent western, maybe could have been trimmed a little though. 



So weird that it'll keep you watching, but I can't honestly say it was a good film upon conclusion. Leaves too many questions unanswered and I actually found it rather depressing.

Another brilliant 50's western. 



More excellent Eastwood.

Early Sam Peckinpah western. Probably the weakest of his I've seen so far.

I preferred the Coen Brothers later take on this story, but this one is very good too and definitely among John Wayne's best westerns.
