Review of Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) by John D — 06 Nov 2011
AVAILABLE ON NETFLIX:
This movie was incredible. When you first see Charles Bronson playing the harmonica you think nothing of him. But as the story progresses, "The Man with a Harmonica" theme will begin to give you the chills as Charles Bronson plays it.
The acting is top notch, better than the dollars trilogy. I'm not saying this movie is better than the dollars trilogy though because they are special in their own right.
You can bet that Ennio Morricone composing has a lot to do with making Sergio Leone's long and close up scenes more powerful in all of Leone's movies. Without Morricone's music, the long close up shots would just feel awkard. Thank God they are quite the opposite.
