Western films

Western films are a genre centered around the American frontier during the 19th century, often depicting cowboys, outlaws, lawmen, and Native Americans. They explore themes of rugged individualism, justice, morality, and survival against the vast, often harsh, landscape. Typically set in the American West, these movies highlight iconic elements like horses, guns, deserts, and frontier towns. Westerns can be action-packed, dramatic, or contemplative, reflecting both the mythic adventure and complex history of westward expansion. The genre has played a significant role in shaping American cultural identity and storytelling traditions.
