Western Movies

Dates covered are mid-1983 through 1996. I didn't start using stars until late 1989, so ratings for movies older than that have been added after the fact. Also, I did not write as many reviews as Siskel & Ebert. These are NOT the only western movies, or the best western movies, to come out during this period; they're just the ones I have reviews for.

BACK TO THE FUTURE, PART III. 4 stars (A western for part of the time.)
DANCES WITH WOLVES. 4 stars
DESPERADO. 4 stars (I know this isn't REALLY a western in the temporal sense, but it looks so much like one I had to include it.)
LEGENDS OF THE FALL. 3 stars
QUICK AND THE DEAD. 3 stars
RETURN TO SNOWY RIVER. 3 stars
RUSTLERS' RHAPSODY. 2 stars
SILVERADO. 4 stars
SOMMERSBY. 4 stars (Not a traditional "western," but the temporal setting is right.)
TOMBSTONE. 3 stars
WYATT EARP. 3 stars
