I don't believe the Coen's True Grit or The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance have been mentioned yet -- they make my list of favorite westerns.
Ha very true it is quite slow. For those expecting lots of shoot outs and action sequences yeah they'll be in for a world of disappoint. The acting in it is the main reason why I dig it so much (the entire cast did a superb job in that department). As was the brilliantly done train robbery. It was so well directed and haunting (especially this shot)



Also great call on the Coen bros' True Grit remake. Can't go wrong with the Dude.
