Heh.  I grabbed "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" when it came out on DVD.

And I don't watch westerns, generally...  however, when I am flipping 
channles, and come across one, I linger and watch.

::anecdote time::
I was sitting in a doctors office in Mexico once, and the TV had a 
Western movie playing, obviously Mexican made, and in Spanish.  I 
remarked to my translator friend, that it was easy to follow even if I 
didn't speak Spanish,  cowboy rides, meets the girl, chases bad guys, 
shoots bad guys. saves the day. gets the girl, rides off with girl, etc.

He agreed.
