The "Dollars Trilogy" or "Man With No Name Trilogy": A Fistful of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
....best spaghetti western trilogy or best trilogy about a man with no name.
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is one of my all time favorites.
A Fistful Of Dollars would also be up there....

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
Those were all great films. But they left me wondering, where do you go to get a supply of half smoked cigars?

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
Best "spaghetti western" hadn't been awarded, nor had best trilogy about "a man with no name."
It's been a while since I've seen Blazing Saddles, but I wouldn't even compare that to any of the "Dollars Trilogy" or the western genre for that matter.

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
I'd lean toward "The Searchers." Dialogue gave us the title to the Buddy Holly hit "that'll be the day."
Tombstone for westerns. Or the original True Grit. Wayne was classic.

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
Still on my list. Haven't seen it yet, so I cannot comment.
I do love me High Plains Drifter, one of my faves (also featuring Clint as a man with no name, sorta).

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
OMG, you haven't seen "The Searchers?" Please make sure you do, soon. Wayne deserved an Oscar for that role. Very dark. Several times in the fiim somebody says something and Wayne responds "that'll be the day." It impressed a young kid in Lubbock enough to write a song. That device was also used in "Big Jake," where periodically people would say: "You're Jacob McCandles? I thought you wuz dead." And Duke would reply "not hardly."

Re: Top 27 best movies - ever
There's a crapload of old movies I haven't seen. I didn't start getting into them until the past few years. I had a severe dis-connect with movies made before I was a movie fan, actually. Dunno why. Now that I can appreciate what they offer, my queue is loaded with them. A few snuck through the cracks before then (mainly westerns and such) because they always used to play on holidays. Since we were usually at my grandparents, that was what was on (hence the previous old westerns I mentioned).
The only other mentionable movie I remember (and I have to see it again) is "The Great Escape" with Steve McQueen. I remember liking it, but it was so long ago I forgot why I liked it.

"Rio Bravo" -- also excellent. Plus Angie Dickinson is HOT.

I remember seeing her in other things, although I don't remember what. Yeah.
