About this product
Product Information
Morton (Gabriele Ferzetti), the power-hungry owner of a railroad company, hires Frank (Henry Fonda, playing against type), a gunfighter without a conscience, to kill anyone who stands in the way of the completion of the railroad. After Frank murders land owner Brett McBain (Frank Wolff), McBain's widow (Claudia Cardinale) hires two killers of her own to protect her and gain revenge: a mysterious, harmonica-playing desperado (Charles Bronson) and his rogue sidekick (Jason Robards). Using techniques previously unseen in the genre, Sergio Leone utilizes close-ups, color, and Ennio Morricone's trademark score to create a tense and somber meditation on death which is widely considered to be one of the best westerns in cinematic history. Soon-to-be legendary Italian directors Dario Argento (SUSPIRIA) and Bernardo Bertolucci (THE LAST EMPEROR) collaborated with Leone on the screenplay.Product Identifiers

I watch this movie at least once a year; I purchased this copy for a friend.
Another engaging epic by Sergio Leone, whose Man-with-no-name sagas brought another dimension to the Western. With all the realism and grit that makes the story as honest as each day, Leone chose all his actors as if they only had to don the costumes to be the characters whose role they played. The honesty of the portrayals makes the characters more than just believable. Using Ennio Morricone for the musical score adds another piece to the epic, by assigning each character with his/her own signature musical score, as they appearedin the story. Leone also used many of his former colleagues to achieve the winning formula in producing this epic.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A Clasic Western, well told, well worth the time to view it
An epic Italian western spanning several years. Henry Fonda plays the bad, bad guy, and Charles Bronson plays the good good guy. Jason Robards plays a good bad guy or is it a bad good guy. You get to choose. And Claudia Cardinale plays a good bad girl it is it a bad good girl. Again you get to choose. The story is epic in scope: an entrepreneur comes west, buying up lots of cheap land where a railroad could come through. When the RR commits to building thru his land, the entrepreneur and his family are murdered by land grabbers, but they somehow miss his new bride (Cardinale) and she inherits. Cardinale is then by turns romanced, threatened, scammed and coerced to give up her inheritance, and so the story goes... Filmed in Spain, this has great visuals, great music, and terrific actors telling a great story, with several stories w/in stories, all leading to an epic conclusion. Entertaining, involving, enchanting and engaging, this film is a lot of fun, telling a story in a way Hollywood never would. They haven't got the skill or the patience. This is a classic Italian Western well worth the time to view it. Get a copy for yourself and enjoy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

An All Time Classic Western and One of the Greatest Film Ever Made!
One of the greatest films ever made and a top 5 western. The music alone is a work of musical art. I have listened to Orchestras in the North America, all over Europe, South America and Asia perform the entire score. The film itself is an accurate representation of the true America West - no clean cut folks. The story is mesmerizing and its difficult to keep one's eye off the screen. All film collectors need to acquire tis film.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Another Classic
This move is fantastic, I like how the first 15 min. or so have no dialog, just sounds and great visuals. Driected by Sergio Leone, with help from Bernado Bertolucci and the wonderful musical score from Ennio Morricone, this is a classic. A must for your Classic collection.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

My Best Western Classic Of All Time!
In my opinion, this is the best amazing Western Classic I have ever seen. The casting/characters, content, production, editing, directing, location, dramatics, and screenplay are all superb! Even the music score is so alluring that it captivates the viewer into almost a; mesmerizing stupor. It's rather lengthy but it draws the viewer so, that time doesn't matter... you just want it to go on and on. I do not think that there could have been any more improvements to this movie at the time it was made. Kudos to Director Sergio Leone and his crew for a well balanced and structured film. "Once Upon A Time In The West" offers mostly everything a viewer could ask for in a great classic Western; action, drama, suspense, romance (short, light and clean), and light satire and humorous parody. Anyone fond of Western Classics would like and appreciate this very entertaining movie! aabatezVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

CLASSIC, all the way.
The way this movie begins is with a harmonica player that just sets the tone for the rest of a very fine movie. All the actors are so good that this movie is a MUST BUY for your collection, in my opinion. The seller got it to us quickly and was very accurate in the descriptions. Fast too.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
