    If you guys can stick through it, I think watching Seven Samurai and then compare it to The Magnificent Seven.

    Great suggestion! I've seen both, but that was well over 25 years ago. Putting those on the to-watch list!

    I've heard of that series. Can you describe it or give me a short synopsis? Is it like a violent western or more on the comedic western?

    I watched that when it first came out. Javier Bardem is a badass in it!

    I did, and it still is. Jack Elam at his funniest, and Suzanne Pleshette always tingles my gootendooter...

    Original Django with Franco Nero is great.
    [​IMG]

    "Once Upon a Time in the Old West" is an amazing film! It's another film directed by Sergio Leone and scored Ennio Morricone. The film stars Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Jason Robards and an Italian Actress. Classic film, but a bit of a slow burner.

    Trinity series with Terrence Hill is quite popular if you like comedy westerns.

    Watched that movie the other. It's pretty gruesome and painful at the end for Django.

    Just a suggestion..not Italian or Spanish productions, but John Wayne had a few good films..I think The Gunman and True Grit were a couple of his last..have fun with your Father.
