- The Gold Rush (1925) Director: Charles Chaplin. The prospect of finding gold in the uncharted territories beyond the frontier swept like wildfire through the popular imagination of 19th-century America.
- The Wind (1928) Director: Victor Sjöström. While inclement weather is a staple of many a frontier yarn, few come as elementally charged as this silent masterwork from the great Swedish filmmaker Victor Sjöström.
- The Big Trail (1930) Director: Raoul Walsh. The vast, wide-open spaces of the frontier lent themselves to cinematic visions of escalating grandeur. By the late 1920s, Hollywood had begun to embrace the idea of widescreen presentations.
- Wagon Master (1950) Director: John Ford. Much like The Big Trail, Wagon Master follows a caravan west, this time to the virgin lands of San Juan river country, where a Mormon family intends to establish a settlement.
- 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.
Jun 26, 2018 · By virtue of the interplay between the pioneers and the Pawnees and the pioneers and the Sioux, Westward Ho, the Wagons! offers plenty of action scenes, the most exciting segment coming towards the middle of the film as the families are attacked by Pawnees while traveling through open terrain.

Review by PUNQ ★★. Felt like they went to the effort in making Wagons Westward (1940) more than just another western, but unfortunately it's solid cast and Chester Morris in dual roles didn't become as enjoyable as it would look on paper. Lacks something to get engaged in the story.
