The history of the  Western movie begins more or less with the end of the Old West itself. The Western movie flourished during the silent era, and while the genre's popularity has fluctuated since then, it's also a way to talk about American history and reflect on the country as it is. A series of violent, psychologically complex Westerns that emerged in the 1950s, for example, captured changing attitudes toward Western settlements and the treatment of Native Americans while conveying the spirit of a nation still recovering from a devastating world war. While there are certain themes and elements that define the genre, it has also proven to be flexible, capable of hosting many different stories and infinitely diverse characters.
