I'm feeling nostalgic for DeadWood and want to watch some great Westerns, something with a broad story I hope. What are some of your favorites?

Re: What are some great Westerns?
Duck you sucker was a good one, but I'll wait to see it on Bluray for next time. Kind of the forgotten Sergio Leone pic.
Anyone got any good resources of information for approaching the writing of a western?It's the eye of the Tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Do you guys (and gals) think there are many parallels between westerns and crime sagas? They feels similar to me in many ways, but I can't think why.
am I off the mark with this?It's the eye of the Tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

My list:
The Wild Bunch
Stagecoach (1939)
The Searchers
The Professionals
Navajo Joe
Ride The High Country
The Tall T
Rawhide (not the TV show, but the film starring Tyrone Power and Susan Hayward, and it was written by Stagecoach's own Dudley Nichols!)
Ballad of Cable Hogue
3:10 to Yuma (both versions)
Silverado
