I don't think that has anything to do with it.
This is a fantastic film but it's not something that's going to appeal to a lot of folks, it's mostly a complex character study with a deliberate pace and a long title that's hard to pronounce for many.
Also, without getting into a debate over what and what doesn't constitute a western, for most people Westerns are fast-paced shoot 'em ups that take place during the Old West (late 1800s, very early 1900s). I wouldn't use this film's popularity or lack thereof as some sort of gauge for the popularity of westerns, or vice versa.
