Greatest Western of All Time - Sweet Sixteen

Pitting "Rio Bravo" against "Once Upon a Time in the West" is particularly nasty. I ended up choosing the latter.

But no way that "Unforgiven" should beat "Red River" even though "Unforgiven" is a good movie.

Red River is the one with the cattle drive mutiny (sort of), that had the changed ending of John Wayne adding the kids initial to the brand? Nah, Unforgiven blows that away on many levels.

(Trivia: The original ending was the kid reading over John Wayne's grave, the same passage Wayne read over the people he had killed in gun fights. Man I hope I am remembering the right movie...)
