15 Western Films To Get You Ready For Red Dead Redemption 2
(GameSpot DS News)
 


The western has had a long and strange history, which has seen it veer from being one of the most popular movie genres, for decades until the 1960s, to one of the least popular in the `80s and `90s. But while audience interest in the Old West has varied, it`s an era that has continued to fascinate filmmakers, from the earliest days of cinema to the present day, both in the US and in other countries.
