To be fair, neither The Alamo nor Assassination of Jesse James were true westerns. On the other hand 3:10 From Yuma was a true western, but also a remake. The last western I really enjoyed was Open Range, which also happened to be the only Kevin Costner film I actually liked.
Also, True Grit was a very popular novel first, so in one sense the original movie was also a remake.
