| Posted by: eljefe15 at April 11, 2008, 6:27 pm | | Topic: westerns Forum: JoBlo | | just a few questions: * what are your favourites from the genre? It's hard to pick a few because I love the genre so much but I would have to say my 3 favorites at this moment are Once upon a time in the West, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and The Wild Bunch. * who's your favourite villain? Jack Palance as John in Compaņeros. I mean, he smokes herb and has a pet hawk, what's not to like? Plus he's just such a bastard! * Wayne vs Eastwood Motherfuck John Wayne...Eastwood can't be touched. * Ford vs Leone vs Mann vs Peckinpah vs Eastwood vs Hawks vs Huston Leone, no question. | | Static Link |

There's no better director in the Western genre. I'd also add Henry Fonda as Frank as one of the best villains. But I'll be damned if Lee Van Cleef doesn't have the best sneer! | | Static Link |

Ford
