10 Iconic Westerns You’ve Probably Never Seen
For every High Noon, Unforgiven, or Once Upon a Time in the West, there are many other lesser-known Westerns that warrant dusting off and rediscovery. The 12-minute 1903 film The Great Train Robbery is considered one of the first Westerns ever made, but it wasn’t until the 1923 silent film The Covered Wagon that all of the trademarks of the Western genre began to coalesce: horses, cowboys, Native Americans, covered wagons, gunfights, and a home where the buffalo roam. Although the popularity of Westerns ebbs and flows, every decade since the 1920s has yielded at least one standout movie that elevates the genre. The American Film Institute defines a Western as a “genre of films set in the American West that embodies the spirit, the struggle and the demise of the new frontier.” Whether the following lesser-seen Westerns are traditional, revisionist, or bend the AFI definition of the genre, Western fans will still want to lasso them up.
