Re: Poll Results

A number on the results list I don't think of as westerns: e.g., Treasure of Sierra Madre, Dead Man, Django Unchained. The latter is a southern, not a western, even if it's obviously indebted to the spaghettis. (Though Guns Along The Mohawk is a western and it's set in New York State. Deservedly not on the list, but has one of my favorite bits of momentary John Ford nonsense, where a preacher declares, in stern admonition and horror, "I hear that some of you girls have been seen dating... [pause]... boys from Vermont!" Then resumes his announcements with reports of Indian warriors gathering.)
