Review of Once Upon a Time in America (1984) by Greg B — 24 May 2013
A novel film in that you have to watch it again to understand the great nuances in it.The final film of Leone shows that he was not just a great genre filmmaker he was a great filmmaker in the same class as Godard and Bertolucci.
This film I feel is the best in showing gangsters as what they are which is immoral broken people who can only express themselves through violence and betrayal. These gangsters are not like Vito and Michael Corleone these are degenerates.
I would say everyone gives a great performance.
