Re: most under-rated westerns of the 1950s

Shane and The Searchers would be top 10. Probably The Big Country as well. High Noon might just miss. And I'm not a big fan of the popular Rio Bravo....it's good but might not make even a top 20 of the 50s for me.

Re: Out of the Past

My favourite Noir, probably because of the double dose of femmes fatale.
