Leon's western ambitions don't tell stories and want to rely on epic masterpieces. Unfortunately, this time the script is far less good than "Once Upon a Time in America", the rhythm is very slow, and this time it is cut too...

Editing is the biggest flaw in this film. It's not a complicated story if you think about it carefully, but after watching it once, you just don't know what it's about. The powerful soundtrack and camera shot make the pretentious atmosphere very...

170 minutes, the beginning, tense, slow, the setting is deeply western, the costume of a knight, the image of a tough guy, and the manliness is full. Close-up shots are more common in later Hong Kong films. The emphasis is on the demeanor of the characters, and the lack of inner...

Side B of "Once Upon a Time in the West": The Pinnacle of Italian Westerns
In the last article, I think "Once Upon a Time in the West" is a masterpiece of American Western films. However, "Once Upon a Time in the West" in many aspects, especially in terms of narrative and filming techniques, did not follow the traditional "routine" of American Western films. It can be...

Something change; Something never change.
Time changes ruthlessly took away personnel. But there are always things in people's hearts that will never change with the passage of time and the vicissitudes of life. This is the essence of Leon's movie.
In the past in the west, in an uninhabited wilderness with yellow sands, there are gradually...
Once Upon a Time in the West quotes
-
Cheyenne: What the hell is this?
Harmonica: [off screen] Can't you see?
[emerges from behind a pile of wood]
Harmonica: It's a station. And all around it a town. Brett McBain's town.
Cheyenne: [starts to laugh] Was HE crazy, heh!
Harmonica: Yeah in a very special way. An Irishman.
[starts measuring out a square and hammers wood spikes into the ground]
Harmonica: He knew sooner or later that railroad coming through Flagstone would continue on west, so he looked over all this county out here until he found this hunk of desert. Nobody wanted it, but he bought it.
[continues with work]
Harmonica: Then he tightened his belt, and for years he waited.
Cheyenne: Waited for what?
Harmonica: For the railroad to reach this point.
Cheyenne: Ah, but how in the hell could he be sure the railroad would pass through his property?
Harmonica: Them steam engines can't roll without water, and the only water for fifty miles west of Flagstone is right here, under this land.
Cheyenne: Ah-ha! He was no fool, our dead friend, huh?
[chuckles]
Cheyenne: He was going to sell this piece of desert for his weight in gold, wasn't he?
Harmonica: [looks at Cheyenne] You don't sell the dream of a lifetime. Brett McBain wanted his station. He got the rights to build it.
Cheyenne: How do you know all this?
Harmonica: I saw a document. It was all in order - seals, signatures, everything. One thing though, in very small print, there is a short clause which says that McBain or his heirs lose all rights if, by the time the railroad reaches this point, the station ain't built yet.

Harmonica: Now I gotta go. Gonna be a beautiful town, Sweetwater.
Jill: [with tears] I hope you'll come back someday.
Harmonica: Someday.
