2 man robbed a bank, one is wounded. They get help from a dr and his friend who are on a hunting trip
A man drives a snowplow toward a shack trying to kill the people in it, he is thrown out of the snowplow by another man who steers the plow away from the shack
The snowplow runs over the killer
Sounds like Nightfall (1956) starring Aldo Ray, Brian Keith, and Anne Bancroft, and directed by Jacques Tourneur.

Nightfall is the film. Very good noir. Aldo Ray is actually pretty good in this one and great seeing a young Anne Bancroft. Good work, your thread EP.

Next: Just before his death, the villain realizes that the man he faces in a showdown was the young boy to whom he "gave" a harmonica.

Thanks, EPM.
The following one will probably be as easy to figure out as I found yours to be.
As the protagonist of the story lies lying in the street after being shot in the back, he lies to the law officer about how it happened in order to not have his murderer arrested for his crime.

Dargo, I think a hint is needed.
Right. Seems so. Okay then...
The film in question is a western. And I've always thought its storyline might have inspired Rod Serling to write a particular episode of his Twilight Zone series that starred Dan Duryea.

Could it be The Gunfighter (1950)?

Swithin,
According to Wikipedia, I think you nailed it. But, Dargo will confirm your win.
Regarding The Twilight Zone episode that Dargo alluded to, here's an abbreviation of Mr. Denton on Doomsday.

The villain, running from the cops, takes refuge in the back of a garbage truck. The truck driver, up front, turns on the apparatus. The villain is crushed. The cops approach the truck. One of them says:
"He died a fitting death, like the garbage he was."

Hint: Think of a character's name in The (otherwise unrelated) Ten Commandments.
