this thread is a rerun a bunch of times over, but the last time I saw one, I realized I'd misplaced my copy of "The Searchers".
ordered replacement DVD immediately, and took delivery today.
El Dorado + Rio Lobo also among my favorites (essentially same plot).
Big Jake
and probably my all time favorite.... "The Cowboys"
The Cowboys is my favorite, too.
Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.
Rehabilitation is way overrated.
Orwell wasn't wrong.

I think True Grit. Big Jake is also awesome. As are a number of them. John Wayne is awesome

The Shootist is real good too, except for the boring buggy ride with Lauren Bacall

Of course, Stagecoach 39 was his breakout film.

For westerns, McClintock is my favorite, but Donovan's Reef, with Lee Marvin, takes the prize.

I think Big Jake but maybe the Shootist. I liked them all. All of them from 1970 on saw at the picture-show first.

I enjoy every movie he played in but I have to say I have probably seen McLintock more than most of them. Hard to pick a favorite.
