Default What's the greatest western of all-time?

What is the greatest western of all-time? So many greats, The Magnificent Seven, Outlaw Josey Wales, The Big Country. For me, it's The Searchers. John Ford and John Wayne in their prime, with The Duke being a not-entirely good guy, unusually menacing and bad-ass. What do you say?

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Torque it down till it breaks off, then back it off 1/4 turn.

All great choices, especially Tombstone. For anyone who's a John Ford-John Wayne fan, check out "3 Godfathers". It's a little-known gem.
