Your favourite cowboy actors.

[Dave7]

A few loose rules (very loose).
You can name 5
You can (if you wish) give some reason why.
They have to be known for roles in cowboy films/series ie not good actors but only in one cowboy film.
It is YOUR favourite.......it dont matter what others think.
Dont have to be original......you can have the same favourites as others.
Us old codgers may have a slight advantage over the whippersnappers.
Mine........

.Eli Wallach. A great baddy. Good the bad the ugly. Acted for over 60 years. Fab character actor.
. Clint Eastwood. Dont think he was ever in a bad film.
.Burt Lancaster.... I just enjoy his characters.
Paul Newman. Cool Hand Luke, Hombre. Brilliant
.kirk Douglas. His infectious smile. I can recall his B&W film days
Many others but some pillock set the limit at 5

As above but I liked John Wayne too.

Clayton moore, who can forget his words?
John Wayne(Just as he started down the river bank they cut to London and people abseling down a building).
Clint Eastwood, painted the town red.

Eli was always the baddy. Came close, but never got the girl.

Me too but he turned into a bit of stereotype. He could never match the atmosphere and tension in scenes like this;

Probably the best scene from any cowboy.
