Is Cowboys Versus Aliens Harrison Ford's first western?

I was just thinking while watching yet another commercial for it and I can't, off-hand, think of any other westerns that he has been in.

Thoughts?

You could argue that Star Wars was a western. IN SPACE!

The first movie was. My fav space western was Sean Connery's Outland, basically a remake of High Noon.

Haven't seen that one, but if you like it, it must be awesome. I'll check it out.

It's an oldie, from 1981, but still fun. It's really a western, but one with explosive decompression!

No it's not Harrison Ford's first Western. Back in 1979 he was in a movie called the Frisco Kid with Gene Wilder.

Frisco Kid is well worth seeing! Very, very funny.

I had totally forgotten about The Frisco Kid, one of these days I'll catch it again.

I knew that, just had spaced it. I wasn't in a position to hit IMDB when I made the original post or I might have caught it. I tried to record Frisco Kid not too long ago on my Tivo, I don't know what happened but the movie that I got was decidedly not that! I was very disappointed.
