Western film genre

Hi welcome to my blog, I'm researching urban realism and discussing different film genres, identifying they're convetions and iconography.

Western movies are usually set in the desert in usually southern america ,they normally involve cowboys and horses.They would also involve guns and rival gangs that have 'shoots outs'.This is what we expect to see in a typical western movies because we have a good understanding on the film genre.The good, bad and the ugly is a typical western film that includes many of the genre'sconventions.The good, bad and the ugly is a spaghetti western film which is a subgenre that involves italian film makers.The weird west is used to describe a western film crossed with another genre for example horror, fantasy, thriller.
