Branchwater Jack SASS #88854 Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 Kind of a morbid question... But you know the end is near. You have just enough time to watch one last Western before you shuffle off this mortal coil. What do you watch?
DocWard Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 Ohhh.... Tough question. My knee jerk reaction was Tombstone, but that was immediately followed by the original Magnificent Seven. Heck, Maybe I'll croak as Yul Brynner says "Only the farmers won."
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 Why watch something I’ve already seen?
Pat Riot Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 Coin toss… Heads - Silverado Tails - Tombstone Hoping it lands in its edge.
Cypress Sun Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 The Neverending Story. That is a Western isn't it?

Utah Bob #35998 Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 I think if I had two hours left, watching a western wouldn’t be a thing. Probably just listening to great music.
Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770 Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 If I want to watch for my entertainment, either "Tombstone" or "Outlaw Josey Wales". However, since I'm dying, I might choose to make it seem like a long time as possible, so Costner's "Wyatt Earp".

Buckshot Bear Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 Bugger a Western....I'd be just holding my wife's hands and staring at her face telling her how much I loved her and thanks for a wonderful life together.
Dantankerous Posted May 11, 2022 Posted May 11, 2022 I'd read The Virginian until either the bourbon or my time ran out.
Buckshot Bear Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Some danged depressing end Westerns you pards are choosing to go out with!

Cholla Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Cry Onion, because every minute would feel like a stinking eternity.
Buckshot Bear Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Ok ....for a last laugh as your crapping the bed and farting away to oblivion - Blazing Saddles!

Nostrum Damus SASS #110702 Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 If I had to watch one more Western before departing for good, and wasn't permitted to do anything else (which is what I think the OP was asking), it might be something more personally meaningful, like Unforgiven.
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Walt Disney presents Louis L'Amour's Cherokee Trail. Little known, very under-rated. Second choice would be The Daughters of Joshua Cabe. Same comment. Third is paint Your wagon. And yet again.
Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Lonesome Dove Second, would be Deadwood.

Yazoo City Gal Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Once Upon a Time in the West. Beautifully filmed with beautiful people!
Utah Bob #35998 Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 I think a better question, without the impending death factor, would simply be ”What is the best western you ever saw in your life”Now one last sip of coffee, one last draw on this fine cigar and I’m off to whack weeds. The wind has stopped….for now!
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 Wind came down here for a spell. We're hoping it goes back to where it's appreciated.

Sundog Posted May 12, 2022 Posted May 12, 2022 If it meant prolonging the end... I would watch the continuing saga of... Gunsmoke... all 635 episodes... 20 years' worth.
