    I grew up having to watch this moving. I thought it was so long but it was my dad's favorite. Now he is 95 and in a memory care unit. He has poor vision but he still talks about this movie and I love to play it for him when I visit. W both love the soundtrack. He can't see the screen but he describes every scene with crystal-clear memory. I will always love this movie and think of my sweet dad.

    Without Ennio Morricone's music, the film would never have been as successful and would not work as well. The filmmaker said in a documentary that he had the music played on set and the actors also acted according to the music. For me this is the perfect collaboration and a masterpiece. Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone!!! Thank you for your life's work

    Sergio Leone was a great rare master, he understood cinematic dimensions, angles, light, sound, depth of field, costumes, makeup and narrative usage, like very few do. He knew how to block and shoot a western better than anyone and this is what makes Once Upon a time in the West, unmatched!

    And he had a unique talent for gathering the best people around him. He cast Eastwood, Van Cleef and Bronson, three actors whose qualities Hollywood had ignored. And of course he cast Fonda, Wallach, Robards, Steiger, Coburn. And with Morricone, Tonino Delli Colli (camera) and Carlo Simi (costumes/sets), he had three men who did outstanding work in their field. I don't think any other director has ever applied such extraordinary cinematic talent to a popular film genre as the Western. Leone never wanted to be an elite or intellectual director, but wanted to make popular films.

    It''s got some superb scenes but I've always thought (and still do) that it was too long, and self indulgent, and sometimes a bit too sentimental. Even the best film directors have a tendency to become too self indulgent over time. David Lean was the same. So were Kurosawa and Bergman.

    The two greatest shots in cinema history: 1. The Sweetwater crane at the beginning 2. The Monument Valley crane here at the end and both set to the rhythm of Maestro Morricone's music and even there does Maestro Leone use music as a character as it's Jill's theme that accompanies the early crane shot and Harmonica/Frank's theme that closes out the final confrontation/reveal. Simply incredible Cinema by the Masters.

    “Keep your loving brother happy…” I was a kid myself when I first saw this movie and I still remember the vile hatred that welled within me at this scene. I might’ve actually muttered “you bastard…” once I realized what was happening. His fall is still one of the most satisfying defeats in cinema to me.

    When you watch the last gunfight. You see a certain satisfaction on Bronson's face, like he knows redemption is at hand. Then the flashback you see his face change, like he remembers why he wants revenge. Then he goes into angel of death mode. Absolutely brilliant.

    Exactly this! Tears in the eyes with that revelation and a swelling hatred for the guy that killed your brother....it feels as if your own brother was killed and you want revenge, you want to see that a-hole dead! Masterfully storytelling...just perfection. And I love that moment of recognition in Fonda's eyes in his last seconds, when he finally realizes who Harmonica is. It may sound like nothing, but it's brilliant acting.

I just recently saw it again. and was so exited. What a Masterpiece...and the music! everyone having their own sound track.

    You see, in writing we learn the difference between showing and telling. The same rules apply to visual media as well. On paper, this scene is as simple as “two men walk behind the building, at each other intensely for awhile, and both draw their guns to fire”. Simple set up, but infinitely more beautiful when we are SHOWN! This a ten minute climax to a three hour film and in theory it really is that simplistic, immortalized though in its EXECUTION!

    What a lot of younger viewers are probably unaware of is the handsome Henry Fonda with those piercing blue eyes usually played good guys. So when the camera panned around to first show his face audiences were stunned - it was a big deal back then. It is really an operatic Western where each character is introduced with their own theme.

The story-telling camerawork, the lighting, the film quality stock, the ACTING, and of course...the music.
