By modern, I mean filmed within the past 20 years.

My vote goes to Tombstone. Thought Val Kilmer was a very good Doc Holliday.

Never heard of the ox-bow incident and its got a high mark.
Made in the 1940s I see so I'll look out for that. Just about late enough to be good I woulda thought.

The Proposition (2006) is probably the best western of the past decade

Appaloosa (2008) also worth a mention
