My favorites, in no particular order...
The Searchers
My Darling Clementine
The Big Country (Best western score EVER)
Red River
Shane
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Ride The High Country
The Magnificent Seven
McCabe & Mrs. Miller
Silverado
Lonesome Dove
The Claim
Ride With The Devil (Director's Cut, Criterion)
The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford
True Grit (2010)
I will watch any John Ford western with pleasure.
I'm looking forward to seeing 2010's Meek's Cutoff, with Bruce Greenwood, Muchelle Williams and Shirley Henderson.
If you liked The Proposition you might give The Claim a try. (It's The Mayor Of Casterbridge transplanted to the Canadian Rockies - seriously.)
I've tried but I cannot like Once Upon A Time In The West, in fact, I find it unwatchable. (And this is from someone who loves Tarkovsky, Greenaway and Lynch.)
