The Old West


Charles Bronson plays Harmonica, in ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST.


It's taking me days to get through this movie.
I love it, but I don't have time to watch it all, so I watch 15 minutes here, 15 mintues there, soon I'll reach the end.
Every once in a while I'll take days to finish a long movie. I took a week to get through Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon. It's the same feeling of suspense I get from catching up on Sopranos, or Deadwood.
Sergio Leone (R.I.P.) is a cinematic master, and the music Ennio Morricone provides is so perfectly bad ass, that no one should ever attempt remaking this in any other way.
I loved Fist Full Of Dollars, and The Good The Bad, And The Ugly, both are spaghetti western classics, and must see films.
Chuck Bronson (R.I.P.), and Henry Fonda (R.I.P.) play some bad mutha fuckas, and I'm having a ball with it.

I don't have any good Ennio Morricone music to put up, but you might want to check out this album I Killed My Best Friend by this french chick, who goes by Le Volume Courbe

That graveyard scene is amazing. Very climactic.
These movies have a great pace, and nothing seems overdone. Even those films jokes are done tastefully.
