One of its director's most well-known westerns, Howard Hawks' reactionary rebuke of "High Noon" is a macho yet sophisticated defense of American exceptionalism.

Rio Bravo is a spirited western but it overstays its welcome.

This film was virtually remade as El Dorado, even to the point of recasting crotchety old cowpoke Walter Brennan in the same role. That was played more broadly and for laughs, but each version has merit. And Dean Martin (unsurprisingly!) plays a very believable drunk...
