Go West young man, stopping at the snack bar first Ok, I finally saw Brokeback Mountain. What a depressing damn story. If I want a western buddy movie, I'm gonna stick to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. No, if you ask me the best western, hands down, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada. Tommy Lee Jones directed a much more brilliant film of isolation and friendship. And unlike Brokeback, Jones' actually filmed his western in The United States. I'm just saying.

Of course, I rented the Back to the Future trilogy from the public library this weekend...now if you want a great western go no further than Back to the Future, Part 3. I assume there will be no argument here. You could mix the two and get humurous results...but why mess with perfection?
