Once Upon A Time In The West (Italian, 1968)


Director: Sergio Leone
Cast: Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Claudia Cardinale,  Jason Robards
Genre: Western

Plot: A newly widowed is trapped between three men - First one is trying to kill her, second one is a suspect murderer of her husband and the third is a mystery!

Another classic by the King of Westerns!
Mother of all movies in terms of innovative backgrounds score and cinematography!

Some notable high-points of the movie:
  •         Masterful use of ultra-widescreen cinematography
  •         Detailed long shots which have certain tranquility about them
  •        First negative role for Henry Fonda.
  •         State of art sets.
Enough to make a cinema fanatic desire it!
There is so much depth in each and every frame that mere words can’t explain. It is an experience to be had.

An avant-garde masterpiece yet to be bettered!
8.9/10
