Ken Valentine Wrote:It was "the west" at the time.
That means you must have missed WATERHOLE NUMBER 3, starring James Coburn, Carroll O'Connor, and Margaret Blye. (And the Ballad of Waterhole #3 sung by Roger Miller.)
So, my three favorite western comedies are:
1. Support Your Local Sheriff
2. Waterhole #3
3. Cat Ballou
As for the rest, I'll have to think about it (there are considerably more than five.)

Hey, Ken.
The west was not discovered: It was raped and pillaged. That's why we protest Columbus Day, not revere it. Come 2010's census, the numbers should have the Latino stats above 55% in the big states; we already have over 50% in California, Texas, and Florida, with Arizona, New Mexico, and Washington in the 40% bracket. Manifest Destiny, my ass.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Oh, that's right, top five westerns. Here goes:
1. Duel at Diablo
2. The Searchers
3. Tombstone (Director's Cut)
4. High Noon
5. Wild Bunch
Not in any discernable order. And I'm leaving out many favorites. These are just the five that hit me right now. I mean, The Good, The Bad,and The Ugly should be in there, but I'll leave it for another day.

P.S. The west was discovered indeed.... And Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves as well. Oh, and George Washington never told a lie. All right, all right. Don't change the channel. This is the top five westerns thread. Back to our sponsor.
