We had a modern one last month - it's time for a classics! 🐎 Although I could have named this poll "60s Westerns". 😂 I went through my movie suggestion submissions and picked some out!

This poll will be open for one week and close at end of day in my timezone on Fri Feb 14.

Happy Voting! 🥳

Movies with KL

Nobody voting for the James Stewart one, smh. It's like you don't KNOW ME. 😉 By the way, I know that there are a couple movies I "could/should" watch before TGTBTU, but I don't feel like adding another series to my list at the moment and I know those movies work on their own anyway. The dollar movies, I can sweep around back to them one day if I choose.

Sergio Leone made three spaghetti westerns with Clint Eastwood playing "The Man with No Name," which became known as The Dollars Trilogy. While not necessary, I'd recommend them in order... A Fistful of Dollars (1964); For a Few Dollars More (1965); and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966).

I knew someone would mention this, but I have no desire to add another trilogy to my list at the moment and I've been told they work on their own anyway.

Nathan Jasper

Although it was not Leone's intention, the three movies came to be considered a trilogy following "Man with No Name" Eastwood, wearing the same clothes and acting with the same mannerisms. The "Man with No Name" concept was invented by the American distributor, looking for a strong angle to sell the movies as a trilogy. So I mean, even the director didn't intend for people to watch them as a trilogy.

Tyler Foster

Personally, I think the order that creates a vague story arc would be the one that would naturally grow out of watching this one first: GBU, then Fistful, then Few.

Tyler Foster

I think that's a slight misunderstanding. "The Man With No Name" title was dreamed up by United Artists, but I do think Leone thought of the Eastwood films as a trilogy, as did many of the cast and crew. In the finished films, Eastwood goes by different nicknames, but when the script was written his name was the same from Few to GBU. It's certainly a very loose trilogy, not the kind of thing we think of now when we think of a series, but I do believe Eastwood is supposed to be the same guy and Leone knew they went together in some way.

I’m here for The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. I read the story it’s based on in high school and then we watched the film in class afterwards. It’s nice to see it here! Plus it’s the only one I’ve seen before on this poll.

Tyler Foster

Not that it matters since it is clear what is going to win, but I voted for the James Stewart one for you. As it is less likely that people will naturally suggest older films as recommendations without movie stars in common, I'll break from my usual tradition and name a couple of other Jimmy Stewart Westerns to put on your radar: The Man From Laramie (1955) and Winchester '73 (1950). I actually haven't seen the latter, but it's been highly recommended, and it also sounds like it was a major landmark in Stewart's career. He was an actor before WWII, and he enlisted. When he came back, he wasn't 100% convinced he should keep acting (the first instance of this self-doubt occurring on, of all things, the set of It's a Wonderful Life), but with Winchester '73, he had a huge hit that reinvigorated him and convinced him to stay the course. Also, Winchester '73 is notable for being the first film where an actor, Stewart, took no upfront fee in exchange for a cut of the box office. It earned him much more than his usual paycheck, and changed the way Hollywood did business with movie stars forever.

Guy Gordon

If The Good, The Bad and The Ugly weren't in the list, Liberty Valance would have gotten the vote. And yeah, this is one of the rare instances of a trilogy where order isn't particularly important. I originally did GBU first and it didn't really detract any when doing the other 2 later. All are great and worth a viewing.

Thank you KL you finally made it. 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Perry Campbell

Thanks u the best. If the one I think going to win, you will need plenty of snacks and liquids lol

Jason Chirevas

Agree with Tyler here. THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE, in addition to being a fantastic movie, would be a good gateway to the more stylized westerns the other three choices represent.

Bopper

The Wild Bunch is one of my favorite westerns of all time.
