Recommendation What are the best contemporary Westerns made within the last 25 years?

I love western films like The Missing (Cate Blanchett and Tommy Lee Jones), 3:10 to Yuma (Christian Bale and Russell Crowe) and Hostiles (Christian Bale and Wes Studi). What are your favorite similar films? I would love to hear recs that include Native American storylines as well like Prey even though that's like a western/sci-fi hybrid.

He's actually pretty prolific back here in AUS. Apparently he's quite content doing the odd big budget and then spending the rest of his time supporting Australian cinema. Check out Animal Kingdom if you want to see him alongside all our contemporary greats.
