I'll do the definites first:
1. The Professionals
2. Magnificent Seven
5. Wild Bunch Warren Oates Go! Go! God!
6. Rio Lobo
7. Tombstone
8. Fort Apache
10. Shane
11. Rio Bravo
9. For a Few Dollars More..wasn't sure if it was this or Fistfull...but I'm going for 'For a Few Dollars More'
Is that your last answer Molly?
Yes.
3 could be 'Fistfull' but I'm not sure. And I'm not sure of the Heston...oh dear. That's embarrassing.
My faves...well most of the above +
'The Searchers'
'Once upon a time in the West'
'Man who shot Liberty Valance'
And cos I'm a girly:
True Grit
Stagecoach
And can I put in a good word for 'Billy the Kid Vs Dracula' tee heexx
I woke up at five this morning thinking: "damn, did we forget the theme from Hawaii Five-O?"
I need to get out more..... I dunno get a hobby or somefin...
Can we have Shenandoah here as well. 'I wrote you a letter...' Don't get me started on Shenandoah. I love it.
Actually...this has cheered me up as I've been at work since 7.30 and going through 'til 10pm. Boo hoo.
Is the Heston 'Will Penny'?
Doppeldude: Yes, that's a Shocking one we left out.
Molly: 8 out of 11. As far as Heston goes: don't think of him as the lead role.
The Man Who Shot Liberty V & The Cowboys almost made my list. True Grit'a ace too, except for that annoying girl.
3 is Josey Wales, innit? And the Heston one must be Major Dundee.
Got to agree with Tombstone (my personal fave), but would definitely have The Shootist in there too - The Duke's finest (and final) onscreen hour! Also got a soft spot for Silverado - thought that was a really underrated movie...
El Duderino has 1 right & 1 wrong.
I like Silverado too, although it goes off in the middle.
I have to say I think 'The Searchers' was The Duke's finest hour.
I don't think it's Major Dundee. That's all I'm saying currently...
Is the Heston 'The Big Country'?
JC - Nice one.
That just leaves #6.
OH...I'll put you out of your misery. Tis 'The Searchers'.
Can't believe I missed this and put it on my list as well. LOL!
Cool.
And I don't have to give anyone a prize.
LOL! That's the way to do it!
I would guess The Searchers. Trouble is bloody Wayne looks the same in everything.
Ah, the shirt's the clue in The Searcher's pic.
And the neck-tie too. In most of the others, it is brown.
But...could you do do your top ten films of all time for us to guess? Now there's a challenge...
*Small gauntlet is thrown across blogdom*
(Did you hear it land on the web?)
I'll get on it, though my top 10 of all time may vary from day to day & might be a tad easy, but will give it a go.
I do love a list.
Yes...I can relate to the vary everyday mantra. Will look forward to that.
OK, DZ, I've weakened. Go to http://jc44.blogspot.com/ to check out my film list!
JC - Been to your blog & wasn't allowed to leave a comment - it says 'team members only' so you might wanna reset.
Just for the record - in case somebody else guesses them all - I was there first!
Sorry, sorry, sorry. New to this blogging thing. Have made what I hope is the appropriate correction!
