The Missouri Breaks, Lonely Are the Brave, and Duck, You Sucker are among the most underrated Westerns that every film fan should watch.
There's a case to be made that Westerns in general are somewhat underrated, especially nowadays. It was once a consistently popular genre, especially around the middle of the 20th century, perhaps not appealing to viewers quite so much in a post-1960s world. That being said, it's a genre that by no means has died or gone away; more so that there aren't quite as many being made as there used to be in decades past.
9 'Lonely Are the Brave' Lonely Are the Brave is a Western that follows a man stuck living as though he's in the Old West, despite the film being set in modern times . Kirk Douglas plays this man: a troubled Korean War veteran, and someone who ends up getting clashing with the law, finding himself pursued by lawmen across New Mexico.
Douglas plays two roles here , with the rest of the cast largely made up of Australian actors. It's well-known within the country it was made , but remains less well-known outside Australia, and perhaps deserves a little more exposure. One of his last Westerns ended up being his best: 1972's The Cowboys. It doesn't get quite as much appreciation as titles like The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Stagecoach, and The Searchers, but it's a high-quality film, and one that pushes certain boundaries that other John Wayne movies don't. It's got a degree of bite and edge to it that makes it hold up well, even when watched today.
4 'The Missouri Breaks' It's strange that a Western starring two of the biggest and best actors of all time - Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando - is still relatively underappreciated, but life can indeed be strange sometimes. The film they were both in was The Missouri Breaks, with it coming out just four years after Brando had won his second Oscar, and only one year after Nicholson had won his first.
2 'The Great Silence' Western movies don't get much bleaker than The Great Silence, a violent yet powerful movie that is easily one of the greatest Spaghetti Westerns of all time. It follows a mute gunslinger who stands up to a group of vicious bounty hunters in a small town they're targeting, only to find he has his work cut out for him in a major way.
