No. 5 is not a Western (maybe a South-Western). Westerns have to take place in THIS country in the West, ya mook!
My favorite Westerns have to be realistic or so fanciful that they epitomize the legend of the West.
In no particular order:
Unforgiven
The Searchers
Appaloosa
The Good, The Bad, and the Bluesman (oops, I mean) The Ugly
Tombstone
Silverado
OK, I know that's 6, but the Canucks wasted one of his. The Quick and the Dead did not make the cut. Sharon Stone does not make up for Lenny the Goat (Leonardo di Caprio).

Then out spoke brave Horatius, the Captain of the Gate: "To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late; And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, For the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods,"
"Well, John Henry said to the Cap'n, "A man ain't nuthin' but a man. But, before I let that steam drill beat me, gonna die with my hammer in my hand, Lawd, Lawd, gonna die with my hammer in my hand."
