    Why are his old westerns so watchable?

    High plains drifter

    The outlaw Jose Wales

    The pale rider

    Hang em high

    Fist full of dollars and his insulted mule.

    Old Westerns are the best, gritty, how westerns should be.

    You missed out the best of the lot, The good the bad and the ugly.

    Unforgiven is quality too.

    A perfect world is excellent but very under-rated.
