It’s true that for the last few decades, the Westerns have become less popular even though there are still occasional hits theatrically and its influence is everywhere. Kevin Costner’s recent attempt to bring the genre back to the big screen failed, but it’s admirable that there are still filmmakers who want to keep the old-school westerns alive in theatres and not just on Taylor Sheridan’s shows. Then again, obviously, the genre is more than just traditional/old-school kind. Many filmmakers put their own twist on the formula, and this list aims to have them all: from character-driven dramas to genre-blending tales.
