Review of Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) by Phi N — 31 Jul 2013
A landmark in the field of Western cinema, Sergio's most finely-crafted epic shines in every respect. The film constructs this legendary tale over the quiet and slow-paced reality of Western America with the thunderous events and notable characters such as Bronson's Harmonica and Robard's Cheyenne.
When it comes to it's climax, it finishes with one of the grandest standoffs in film history, a heart-pounding experience that makes this film what we know it as today. The Western that all Westerns aspire to be. That and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!
