Bonjour,
The next topic I would like to cover is that of the western movie. I really love western movies, not just for the gunfighting and duels and whatnot. I also really enjoy the whole ambiance and scenery of movies that are set in the southwest. According to the AFI a western is a film "set in the American West that embod[y] the spirit, the struggle and the demise of the new frontier."
The whole concept of a person setting out to conquer a new and untamed land is an extremely romantic idea. I think genre as a whole really depicts what life was like in the west at that time. Actors such as John Wayne, Lee Van Cleef, and Clint Eastwood all made careers out of acting westerns.
Below are a few clips of some western films:
