Main characters on the poster for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1966)
When it comes to a good many Western movies, maybe it's the breathtaking landscapes and exciting shootouts that stand out first, but like just about any genre, characters and what they say matter. Some Westerns prioritize escapism and spectacle, but even those tend to have interesting things to say about the Old West, and interesting characters who themselves also have interesting things to say.
9 "That's right. I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawls at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you did to Ned." 'Unforgiven' While The Searchers was dark and emotionally intense for its time, Westerns changed a great deal over the next several decades, ultimately paving the way for something as bold and effectively deconstructive as Unforgiven.
7 "You tell 'em I'm coming, and Hell's coming with me, you hear? Hell's coming with me!" 'Tombstone' Tombstone admittedly has a more direct approach to the Western genre than Unforgiven, which was released one year earlier, and it feels a little broad and old-fashioned, but not in a bad way. It’s a big, sweeping film that does end up feeling like a heroes versus villains tale.
5 "I like the way you die, boy." 'Django Unchained' As is to be expected from a Quentin Tarantino movie, Django Unchained has a good deal of graphic violence , and it’s also tremendously well-written. It’s a story about the titular Django enacting vengeance on monstrous people and saving the one he loves, and is packed with one great line after another that it’s hard to single out just one.
