oops I meant High Plains Drifter, the one with a town next to a lake.
I also like to revisit the sense of humor of David Lynch, as in the film Wild at Heart or the tv series Twin Peaks.
IainB:
Though I have seen him in archives of old TV Western/cowboy series (I forget which ones), after watching the superb "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" I reckoned that you could be guaranteed that pretty much any Western or other flick with Clint Eastwood in it was going to be worth watching. When he started acting in them and producing them, things took a step up.
Most memorable for me are: "A Fistful of Dollars", "For a Few Dollars More", "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly", "High Plains Drifter", "Play Misty for Me", "Dirty Harry", "Magnum Force", "The Enforcer", "The Outlaw Josey Wales", "Every Which Way But Loose", "Bird", "Unforgiven" "The Bridges of Madison County", and "Gran Torino".

agreed, seems like the guy can't make a bad movie

I think my favorite "western" is the sci-fi classic Outland with Sean Connery as Federal District Marshall W.T. O'Niel. This is a traditional story of corruption set in a frontier mining town - except this time it's on Io. This flick has it all: the lone honest lawman, the corrupt big company mine boss, the burned out doctor, dishonest deputies, the local saloon, dance-hall ladies, hired gunmen ...
Films like this show just how enduring those old cowboy themes can be. :Thmbsup:

That is a good one. :Thmbsup: I'd add Serenity to that list also, and Westworld.
