    This film is the last western film directed by the director Sergio Leone. In this film, we can see that Leonne is no longer just confining the pattern to his original Italian macaroni western film style. , This film creates a more outstanding epic atmosphere, in this range the boundary between good and evil has been diluted and blurred, and what it wants to show is no longer a personal destiny, but an era. Destiny, almost every shot of it touches the pulse of history. The excellent shaping of...

    The cctv6 national edition, the western film has an epic thickness, and each character is distinct and distinct. Despite the similar styles, Leonne has more idealism and heroism than Coppola, so he rejected "The Godfather" and made the "Once Upon a Time Trilogy". This "Once Upon a Time in the West" is indeed worthy of The title of "the greatest western film in history", the desert and yellow sand, rewarding good and punishing evil, and happily enmity, presumably the "New Dragon Inn" by the old...

    The ultimate Western film: 1. Western pioneering history, deserts, water sources, railway stations. 2. For the most money, a small town, even the beginning of a city. 3. Gunfights and duels, Ford-style, Leonian-style. 4. Anti-type, the victory of the Indians, the defeat of the cowboys. 5. Harmonica, a kind of formalism, a great soundtrack. 6. The New Orleans prostitute, the final...

    The master Morricone has passed away. ccav6 should be to commemorate his performance in this movie. Morricone said that he is a composer, and he does not like to use movies to limit his work. I still remember that his eight evil men won the award. At the time, he was so nervous that he was trembling, and he was so humble. I even thought it was an Oscar shame because it turned out to be the first time he won an award. I listened to the original soundtrack of the movie first. It was the first...

    It can only be described as "great". I'm a bit regretful that I watched this one before I watched other westerns, I'm afraid it will be tasteless later. Many people say that the tempo of the first hour of the movie is too slow, but I think it was exactly the first hour, especially the first ten minutes, which achieved the ultimate language of the movie. Very quiet, very slow, but every second feels thrilling, and there is some power ready to go. A pioneering point is that the image of the...

    Western movies that pretend to be a masterpiece, the first 10 minutes will be able to tell you what is the highest level of Western movies through music, tone, composition, and props in the first 10 minutes. Many martial arts films and writers in China should be influenced by this film, and there is a piece of music that is too similar to "Laugh in the Sea". It is said that Director Leone is a director who is exhausted in the movie. I have watched two of his past trilogy. I feel that the color...

    N brush, personal favorite top three, the theme of personal grievances in macaroni westerns is combined with the background of the decline of the western era. The western era was run over by the wheels of history. The lonely prodigal still turned away happily. The martial arts temperament rises to the epic swan song of the west, and it is also the real end of a genre film. Fonda’s Frank is one of the most underrated movie...

    Another era is coming, just like the spreading railroad tracks. Such a straight man's revenge story, using such a touching soundtrack is very unscientific-the mosquito scene should be a tribute to the episode of "Breaking Bad". The story with female characters is quite unexpected, and the racial conflicts are covered a bit...

    Some shots are really slow and long, as if the boundless western desert has stretched the time. In Morricone's romantic and sad music, the sea-like hatred of Sean and the harmonica rages in people's hearts. That is the true meaning of "Western." The inserted memory images are close and clear again and again, until the last incident emerges. Morton crawling towards the standing water heard the waves. The picturesque Katina on the big screen is infused with life courage by Shane's butt touch. |...

    Film screening! A western epic shrouded in an invincible accent, every frame and every shot is the coolest and most handsome accent. On this point, whether Quentin or Refern face this film, they must bow down: dialogue, footwork The rhythm, the timing of the close-up, and the deep understanding of the wide-screen format have created the best film ritual...

    slow before

    After three days, I finally finished the nearly three-hour "once upon a time in the west".

    It was the first time I saw such a rough and delicate western, so delicate that one expression would stay for several seconds. The soundtrack is also very good, especially when Jill watched the soundtrack when...

    The difference between Gu Long and Jin Yong

    Many people say that this is the ancient dragon of the west. I agree with this statement. Both are men's fairy tales,
    a knight who walks alone in the wilderness, an unparalleled quick grab, and a plot of revenge that is

       different but also very different.
    This cowboy is not a fake Dakong who sees...

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.
