If their name were John Wayne , Clint Eastwood , or Glenn Ford , they were have a go at it almost entirely for spiel puncher and gunslinger because they look and voice the part .
After the ' sixty , some histrion seek to come to the writing style whenWestern pic became unpopular in Hollywood , while other player like Eastwood ( and afterward Kevin Costner and Tommy Lee Jones ) stay fresh Westerns awake by appear in one every ten .
finally , it became a badge of accolade for mod thespian who had never appear in one before like Kiefer Sutherland in the ' LXXX , Brad Pitt in the ' ninety , or Christian Bale in the ' 00s to examine their gritstone , but apply that the plot of land are historically base , they take a sure amount of credibility .
This was if an doer face , do , or go anachronous , it can take fan out of the chronicle .

Wild Wild Westpaired Will Smith and Kevin Kline together as a westerly interpretation of James Bond and Q and was exalt by the TV serial of the same name that aggregate the Old West set with espionage and sci - fi in the ' sixty .
Smith fundamentally play the Fresh Prince in a puncher lid , which did n’t turn with what Kline was doing as Artemus Gordon , nor the camp operation Kenneth Branagh was turn in as Dr. Loveless .

Motley crew of untested worker flog on six - shooter were n’t Modern whenTexas Rangerscame out in 2001 and had been done very well in pic likeYoung GunsandSilverado .
But come in Ashton Kutcher , clean from hisThat LXX Show Fameinto the heart of Texas in 1875 with James Van Der Beek fromDawson ’s Creekfelt out of billet .
Their fashion of act along with their feature of speech do n’t bestow themselves to the character of Texas Rangers , particularly when place next to the craggy Dylan McDermott or the always - interesting Alfred Molina .
This was ## 5sean connery in shalako
shalakofeatures clueless european patrician bring their hunt company deeply into apache district , and while it might seem like sean connery would be toy a scottish maker , he ’s really the nominal tracker .
As Shalako , he pull through Brigitte Bardot ’s countess from being lay waste to and keep the pampered outlander secure while they doddle around on Apache ground .

4Elvis Presley in Charro
Elvis always want to be a serious role player , and western ease up him that chance , peculiarly since they were n’t fill with song likeViva Las Vegas , Jailhouse Rock , and the relief of his catalogue .
While he was in an fantabulous westerly about tension between blanched settler and the wall First American tribe enkindle Star , he was miscast inCharroas a brute torpedo .
He maturate a byssus and take a stab at be a tough sea wolf , but The King was at his upright when he reserve his built-in sensibility and emotion to get his public presentation , not suffocate them into a substitution class of maleness that he did n’t befit and did n’t accommodate him .

While her operation was n’t tremendous , she was too well - fuck for modern-day moving-picture show at the meter , and no amount of buckskin could modify that .
2Dean Martin In Rio Bravo
Like Frank Sinatra , Dean Martin was a balladeer who became a successful role player , and turn in full performance inRobin and the 7 HoodsandBells are ring .
This was image him seem inrio bravoalongside john wayne , however , was trouble , peculiarly since the motion-picture show stop in the center , so he can execute a couple with teenager heartthrob ricky nelson .
