Starting on Friday, we're taking a look at some of the best of the West films worth checking out and here to break it all down is culture critic at the weekend.

Jeeva Lang Jeeva.

What is your favorite classic Western?

That is a very easy question because it's also one of my favorite movies ever made.

I'm gonna have to go with The Searchers by John Ford.

It's 1956 Film shot in Technicolor.

This division Most of it was shot in Monument Valley, so it is just gorgeous.

Gorgeous, gorgeous.

It stars Natalie Wood, Jeffrey Hunter, Ward Bond, who's one of the great Western character actors and, of course, John Wayne.

This was one of the 14 films John Wayne made with John Ford and part of why this film is so fantastic.

It is in conversation with the myth of the American West as it was established and created by other Westerns and also by other John Ford films.

So it really presses and pushes the classical form to its breaking point.

John Wayne is ostensibly the hero, but I think anybody who watches this film would be appalled by his behavior.

He is obsessive.

He is a maniac, as Ahab like quest to find his niece, who he intends to kill because she has been living with Native Americans.

So very strange, deranged hero that were supposed thio root for.

Perhaps not, and it's gorgeously composed.

It's very intentional.

It begins with this famous shot out the door into the West in Monument Valley, and it closes with the same frame one time.

John Ford's coming the last time he is leaving so kind of bringing up these themes of the values of the Old West held maybe don't have resonance or importance to future generations.

I think it's a film where if you're somebody who is like, oh, westerns aren't those those movies where white people are killing Native Americans like the Searchers is very aware of that and is working against it intentionally and kind of pointing the way towards like the films of Sam Peckinpah that would come in the next decade, the revisionist westerns that would confront those unfortunate themes that are in a lot of early westerns.

That's very interesting that your your favorite is basically a kind of a critique on Westerns.

Someone was looking for a modern Western to get into, and they don't usually watch westerns.

What would you recommend?

I would actually pick that question apart a little bit, So I think my question to somebody would be Why do you not watch Western?

So perhaps the reason is that you're just not familiar with them.

You have encountered them a whole lot.

You don't watch TCM obsessively in which you say, Start with something like True grit or the new 3 10 to Yuma, both of these air remakes of older films.

So if you're looking for the like, rip roaring like introduction to the genre, this is going to show you what westerns are all about in the vocabulary of older Westerns.

If you're not watching Westerns for maybe ideological reasons or it's not a style that particular attracts you, I would point you to films like First Cow or the Writer.

Both of these films are made by women.

Neither of them is working in a traditionally Western vocabulary.

There are a lot slower films, but both riel gyms that are in conversation with Westerns that came before them.

So if you're completely unfamiliar with Westerns, he's the first Westerns You better watch.

I would recommend going back and also watching older westerns once you're finished with them, because I think it will bring Mawr like insight and perspective in tow what those films were trying to grapple with.

Now people can see Tom Hanks and his very first Western If you don't count Toy Story at home this week in News of the World, whose another actor that you would love to see take a stab at being in a Western Oscar.

Isaac has the face for it.

I could see him doing something.

I also really love the idea of like a Margot Robbie like stage coach robber like do the Old West outlaw thing with her.

You know, maybe somebody classic like Belle Starr or Calamity Jane or some character like that.

I know I'm giving you so many answers, but there's so many people I want to do.

Western.

There's so many great indigenous actresses as, well, me, even Nelson.

She plays Lady Silence in the Terror.

She's fantastic.

Needs more work should be a great lead in a movie one day.

How do you think you would like to see the genre evolve?

And do you think the stories of the Old West actually hold value to like modern audiences?

Yeah, great question.

So Westerns kind of have this reputation of being like Dad movies.

But modern Western, they're doing such interesting things with the genre, like really pushing back on things that were established by the classic films.

So like I think, a movies like Brokeback Mountain, which kind of like overturns the idea of the West, is like an extremely heteronormative space.

Or when River, which deals with how decades of genocide and oppression created the missing and murdered indigenous women crisis we're having today First cow, which replaces Chinese immigrants back in the West, frequently absent from Western even films like the Revenant.

I'm not going to go as far as to call it an ICO Western.

But Leonardo DiCaprio's character he plays a frontiersman is kind of at war with the landscape itself.

In a way that's really interesting, because there's the whole idea of Westerns is being like man conquering the West are taking over the West, and in this one the land fights back a little bit.

So I could also see westerns going in a direction that has something really relevant in terms of climate change or environmental protection in the future as well as the genre continues to develop and deal with this modern themes.

Oh wow.

Yeah, I got a lot of untapped stuff in there, I guess.

Yeah, great.

All Westerns air kind of about telling ourselves myths about ourselves.

And so the best Westerns or the films that interrogate that and ask, Is there a dark side of what?

The stories that we're telling ourselves about ourselves?

Well, thank you so much, Jeeva, for coming on the show and giving us a different perspective for westerns.

Where can people find you?

I'm on Twitter at at J E Underscore View H and at the week is where my writing is.

Happy trails.

Happy trails available to watch at home.

Friday is promising.

Young woman.

Do you remember the accusations made against Alexander Monro?

I don't.

He took a girl back to his room.

Way get accusations like this.

Yeah, all the time.

Everyone said Cassie was a promising young woman until a mysterious event abruptly derailed her future.

But nothing in Kasi's life is what it appears to be.

She's wickedly smart, cunning, and she's living a secret double life by night.

Now an unexpected encounter is about to give Cassie a chance to right the wrongs of the past in this thrilling and wildly entertaining story.

The film is written and directed by Emerald Fenella and stars Carey Mulligan, Laverne Cox and Bo Burnham and available to watch it home today as Horizon Line.

Having a harder Okay, okay, class up.
