When I hear the word “Western” as it applies to movies, I don’t think of location as such, but rather of era and attitude. As much as I love it, the TV show “Yellowstone” is not a Western. Yes, it features feuding cowboys and Native Americans and is set in the West, but in the end, it’s a well-executed, high-end soap opera set in the present day.
