The Power of the Dog is a 2021 Western psychological drama film written and directed by Jane Campion. It is based on Thomas Savage's 1967 novel of the same title. The film stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, and Kodi Smit-McPhee.
Mar 6, 2022 · Campion says it's thanks to the film's "feminist" producer Roger Frappier that she got on board with the project in the first place after a meeting in Cannes.
- The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) The third and best-known film in Sergio Leone’s imperious “Dollars” trilogy, this superb spaghetti western is arguably the most famous on-screen depiction of the violent, opportunistic American West – despite being filmed in Spain and Italy rather than the States.
- Django (1966) It’s best-known now for lending its name to Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained, but Sergio Corbucci’s spaghetti western is iconic in its own right, spawning over 30 unofficial sequels.
- The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) One of John Ford’s many classic westerns, albeit with a far more claustrophobic feel than his sweeping outdoor epics, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance features an all-star cast led by James Stewart and John Wayne.
- The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) Directed by and starring Clint Eastwood (a solid fixture in our best western movies list, unsurprisingly), this is one of the earliest “revisionist” westerns: films that attempted to portray the Old West in a far more realistic, less clear-cut way than the more simplistic good guy/bad guy movies churned out in the past.
- True Grit (2010) Where to watch it: Various streaming services. John Wayne won his only Oscar for his portrayal of drunken Sheriff Rooster Cogburn, a fact that has perhaps imbued True Grit – a good film, with a better Glen Campbell title song – with a reputation it doesn't quite deserve.
- The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) Where to watch it: Various streaming services. A stunningly beautiful, melancholy and wistful meditation on the myth of Jesse James – and myths in general!
- The Homesman (2014) Where to watch it: Prime Video. Tommy Lee Jones helmed one of the best modern day westerns with the under-seen The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (not eligible for this list, but highly recommended), a genre he's long held in high regard.
- Open Range (2003) Where to watch it: Various streaming services. Kevin Costner's Open Range begins in a way that suggests it is to be a somewhat conventional western drama – open plains, buffaloes grazing, amiable music on the soundtrack.
