Tribute to Western Movie Actors

[CCT]

I used the term 'actors' rather than 'Stars' because some of my favoutites never got the acclaim I feel was deserved - anyway, here's a short list I applaud, BUT NOT in every film they made:

Glenn Ford
John Wayne
John Payne
Joel McRae
Gary Cooper
Clint Eastwood
Randolph Scott
Henry Fonda
Ben Johnson
Dan Duryea


Many of the 'popular' actors (male) are listed here:

Glenn Ford was my fave cowboy, he had a thousand yard stare that conveyed volumes of emotions to the moviegoer.

Robert Duval's preformance in Lonsome Dove is likely my all time favorite
As well as his Open Range preformance
Sam Elliot for his Louis Lamour films

How about Tom Selleck and Alan Rickman (one of my absolute favorite heavies) in Quigley Down Under?

Or, Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover and John Cleese in Silverado?

Anthing with Lee Van Cleef, or the Terence Hill/Bud Spencer duo? The Magnificent Seven anyone? The Unforgiven! (I'm not like that anymore.):flames:

Iron Eyes Cody, Jay Silverheel, Chief Dan George, Will Sampson and all the rest of the Native American actors. As opposed to Will Shatner in White Comanche.:uke:

On and on, the list of Western movie greats just keeps getting longer. I think it is the genre itself which leads actors to stellar performances.
