摘录部分法国学者的“西部片Top10”,他们基本上是阅片无数的专家,但西部之大,历史之长,Top10这个项目始终众口难调,而且根本不可能,因此这个节目,仅供大家选片藏片娱乐。世上没有任何一部经典西部片是完美的,因为总有另外一部经典西部片拍到了他没拍到的东西。不过,法国人的口感委实刁钻,像Allan Dwan这样被好莱坞遗忘的人物,竟成为他们西部遗珠中的英雄,而John Sturges、Richard Brooks、Arthur Penn、Clint Eastwood等人悉数不放在眼里。借此机会,你也可以看看阅片无数的Magasa的西部片Top30。Western Top10,a misson impossible forever。

我需要补一下The Hanging Tree和The Wonderful Country,不过大多数情况下,我们都还是在A级西部片那十几个大导演的圈子里打转,没有进入三四十年代的B Western和无声西部片,那里面的水就更深了。
The Hanging Tree没有看过,Allan Dwan的片子只看过一部,正在找Tom Mix和William Hart的早期西部片。法国人比较喜欢与noir有交汇的西部片,比较喜欢revision western。
第一个名单的Johnny Guitar是Samuel Fuller的?
写错了,哎,刚在舒琪老师那里看到,他经常把Ray和Fuller弄混,我马上就混了一次。
