myFiveBest Opinions: Historical Western Films
Everyone loves a western. American cinema was founded upon the cowboy and his journey over the plains of our nation. Screen legends, such as Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, and John Wayne are icons to the men who pioneered the West. The problem with trying to find a historical western is that 99% are stories. Here is a list of westerns that hold some semblance of the truth. Feel free to add your own choices to the list.
