If you're anything like me, there are always those lazy days when you're flipping through the channels and, for one reason or another, you stop on the station that plays all those old movies. You know what I mean, the station your mom always wants to stop on because she, "hasn't seen this movie in so long!"

Well, don't feel ashamed! There are some amazing old classics that really take the cake when it comes to "country" films. Take a look, you may like what you see.

The Great Train Robbery


You want a classic film? This is a classic film! Filmed in 1903, The Great Train Robbery is a silent western that upon release, was seen as one of the most innovative movies of its time. A typical good-guy versus bad-guy story, The Great Train Robbery stands as a benchmark of American westerns. There's even some funny trivia to go with it, like, even though it's a western it was filmed entirely in New Jersey! Martin Scorscse even payed an homage to the film in both Goodfellas and The Departed.

Brokeback Mountain (for the person before me) is not a
western....

Anyway, I think Tombstone is a pretty good western...ish movie!
I personally dont like westerns probably because my step dads has
them on all the time. I am personally so tired of seeign john
wayne. Im sure it wouldnt be so bad if they werent on our family
tv all the time. But I did really like brokeback moutain. Cried
like a baby. LOL
Nice article!
