I mean.... Nolan and Hans Zimmer in the dark kinght

quang le my the dark knight is trash

Henry Fonda was one mean bastard in this film, cold blooded, no remorse, sadistic, insane! He played that part well, to play Frank, leader of a gang of bad guys. Bronson is no spring chicken either! Tough as they come, on a mission to settle a score with a nemesis from his past. Eastwood was asked to play the role of harmonica but turned it down so Bronson got the part. One of the greatest westerns to ever hit the big screen, an instant classic! Who would argue with that?!

You should not have said Frank! Now that you called me by name, BANG!!! Fonda was cold blooded as a Walter the Walleye!

@@danielauer9307 no, Bronson stopped playing the man with no name and then Eastwood got the part. The next movie was "A Fist Full of Dollars."

Amen! Lol

Más que mejor introducción de villanos... es la mejor escena en todo su esplendor

Tdkr, tdk🤔

Souvent les hommes d'équipage prennent un albatros, vaste oiseau des mers .... et souvent les chasseurs lorsqu'ils atteignent leur cible, affichent un rictus de plaisir au bout de leurs lèvres. Bande de salauds.

Yes. Can you imagine how shocked a lot of the audience would have been when the camera slowly reveals it's Henry Fonda. Henry Fonda was well-known for playing the good guy. When Henry Fonda got this part he planned to to change the colour of his eyes with contact lenses that he had bought so they would be brown and he had grown a little moustache. He wanted to look the part of a villain. But Sergio Leone wanted none of that. When Henry Fonda turned up on set with the moustache and brown eyes he said No. He wanted the smooth skin and the baby blue eyes that the audience were familiar with.

when i saw this movie the first time as a kid , it seemed to me that the coats looked almost like drawings in this scene. like some coats in the lord of the rings animation where drawn with rotoshop technique

@@AutomanicJack They're called duster jackets. Got some just like the oens in the film.

Two words: Sergio Leone 😉

There are more perfect scenes on the film. The station scene with music is perfection.

This is no "Billy the Kid vs Dracula" (1966) but it certainly is one wonderful Western !

@ Vignesh Kumar: I got the movie on DVD. Who watches movies on fucking Twitter? If your girlfriend loves the film, go and buy her the DVD.

Audiences were aghast as fonda usually played the goody

Henry Fonda certainly showed how to play the baddie evil in this movie his body language and stare was enough to make you shiver

You know, one of the screenwriter of OUATITW was Dario Argento, Italian master of horror and thriller. He undoubtedly bought some elements of tension.

This movies number two. No. one is "Lonesome dove" by Larry McMurtry.

So true!

Frank was happy for the reason

It just shows how brilliant actor mr. Hond... i mean mr. Fonda was.

Henry Fonda always played the good guy in westerns so it was a masterpiece of casting and took audiences by surprise.

This is my first western and the first time I watched this movie today and it was quite shocking even nowadays. Hell it's because the movie was so old that I did not expect the entire family to just get killed off. I even thought they were gonna let the kid survive and had slightly jumped when they shot him too. To put it into context, I'm an avid reader and watcher of horror. I've seen the clasics and the more modern ones and you tend to anticipate these kind of grisly scenes but this genuinely took me by surprise as I watched in horror, bewilderment and strangely enough in amazement. Legit one if not the most badass/tragic scenes ever. Gonna start watching more westerns now.

@@Forastero011 Watch definitely the Good, the Bad and the Evil!!

Frank was going to leave the kid, but the idiot beside him called him by his name...... You can see the change in Fonda's micro expression, what an actor he was.

That is EXACTLY why Leone was insistent on Henry Fonda who expected to wear dark contacts to hide his blue eyes. Leone wanted those icy blue eyes that simply sparkled with evil.

The only movie that will live forever ? What about "The Ghost & Mr Chicken" from 1966 ? What cinema dialog could top "Attaboy, Luther !" ??

There IS a lot tbh. But he is one of the best.

I've watched this movie again and again.

Where did you go to see it ,and what year

Yes, dirt.

Basic screenwriting classes will tell you keep your scenes under 2 minutes. The master of not doing that is Tarantino. And for whatever reason I forgot to connect the dots and remember who he was influenced by. Such a legend.

@@RusticChivalry1985 They both learnt from Kurosawa.

Leone, Morricone, Delli Colli (cinematography) and Fonda together create a legendary scene. No wonder Tarantino is so influenced. Indeed Kurosawa is the master.

He did it for a few dollars more.

The Good The Bad and The Ugly

Is a great film, but not as good as this. Just compare the final duels if you want to see blindingly obviously why.

+chiffmonkey This is better than the good the bad and the ugly? dude be more specific.

TGTBATU has nice character devlopment and some cool settings, but the plot isn't as good, the soundtrack isn't as good, heck even the acting isn't quite as good (and that's really saying something btw), perhaps helped by the casting. What I meant by comparing the duels - TGTBATU's final duel is simple staring each other down then shooting. Though I'd admit the location is pretty cool. Someone tune that guitar though it's just annoying. Shooting the hat and gun into the grave are just plain silly (exact same sound effect played twice too). Meanwhile OUATITW's final duel contains a major plot point that unravels with the duel, getting the absolutely epic shot panning out from the arch in the middle of nowhere as you 'get it' - then ending with that brillaint bit of acting from Fonda as the last thing he ever thinks is remembering exactly who Harmonica is, the music this time going out of tune for an actual plot related reason.

+chiffmonkey Using the final scene to say OUATITW is better than GBU is absolutely crazy, that final standoff in GBU is one of the greatest movie scenes of all time. 3 unbelievable actors playing 3 brilliant characters, the music in that final scene is as good as can get and you have goosebumps because the movie buildsup to that scene amazingly well, the adventure they have gone through and it pays off sooooo good. With GBU the last scene was also less predictable than OUATITW, we knee the good guy will win and yes a plot point unraveled in that final scene but it was obvious that was coming. GBU you had 3 characters and everyone could guess that the bad will die but the intrigue was in wether or not the ugly would die who was such a great character. I also love OUATITW but it cannot compare however a big problem with the movie is the casting, Fonda was awesome but Charles Bronson gave an extremely wooden performance and I believe he single handedly held back the movie, it could have been so much bigger and well known if Eastwood was playing that role.

It isn’t. You should watch There Was A Crooked Man.

Fire creek

I think he was a villain in Firecreek, he brought a whole band of outlaws into James Stewart's tiny town...Also a 1968 film!!

Not the only, but one of a very few.

Bro same😄

I agree....the score, cinematography, and acting are perfection

❤❤❤❤❤

Tonino Delli Colli was the cinematographer responsible for the fantastic camera work. They shot with a Mitchell BNC (so I read) and a few, at least three Arriflex 35IIC, which can be seen in the many production stills. Noisy indeed. Both were modified for Techniscope, which is a smaller and cheaper format than anamorphic, since it only uses half of the 35mm frame, but it allows for those awesome deep focus shots. The slightly grittier image is perfect for this movie.

@@truefilm6991 cinematography is indeed astonishing for this movie - as demonstrated in the opening scene at the railway station -this movie is a textbook example of the supreme art of movie-making

Verissimo!!! E Leone non pensava agli incassi. Lui pensava ai Film, per trasmettere emozioni. Ed è per questo che moltissimi li considerano più un opera d'arte, piuttosto che intrattenimento.

The german translation is like a completetly different movie. It's called "Play me the song of Death", this is said twice during the film, both times when the harmonica is put into the mouth of a dying person. (The line"keep your loving brother happy" is missing, many german viewers think it's his father). Another change: The last dialogue between Harmonica and Mrs McBain English: "Will you come back someday?" "Someday." German: "I will wait for you" "There is always someone waiting"

@@truefilm6991 Sergio shot all his films silent, and had Ennio's score playing on set.

Well i was born that very year and i have it on DVD. Seen it on tv, around 2010 or 2011, Blu Ray 35 mm or something i think they call it. Got the feeling i could touch the Herringbone fabric on Robard's trousers. And seeing Fonda as a baddie on the tv in '95 was shocking.

+platotroy Henry Fonda's family said that Frank was closest to Henry's personality of all the characters he played.He sure played it well!

***** I'm glad he accepted the role.this film is truly stunning.

Better read ' FONDA - My Life '. By Henry Fonda and Howard Teichman. You'll see of all his roles in nearly 50 years,this was his favorite.

Fonda Rules, those blue eyes as the Bad guy..Perfect!!

bedstuy rover so he was an evil bastard in real life?

That hanging scene is mind blowing. So much tied up in that moment and then the rush of realization from the reveal.

The subject is made by a young Dario Argento also. I think this has greatly influenced the narrative.

+modder1975 absolutely!

Nothing to be sorry about because your absolutely bloody right!!

Get off it Kanye

What does that have to do with this clip?

You brought two too many

Why are you sorry?

That also happens in the Searchers just before John Wayne's brother's family are attacked by the Comanche. Sergio Leone was a fan of John Ford westerns

Was the same for me with "Keoma"...

@@Navarre751 I'm waiting for my hangover, after a lot of high abv beer I need some Sergio.

TM Rezzek don’t forget 12 Angry Men

In a Carson interview in the 70's,I believe he said the one character,which he identified with.Was Mr.Roberts,I agree on TomJoad,I was surprised to learn in all those years he never won an Oscar,until On Golden Pond.I thought Lancaster should have won for Atlantic City.He should have won for Tom Joad.

Yup

Nonsense. This is acting crap. If you want to see his best , there are a dozen films and a half were he should have or was nominated

In his autobiography, Fonda says this is his favorite role.

Actually this is an Italian movie.

Esse filme foi muito criticado em Hollywood que nunca reconheceram os talentos de Leone e Morricone por eles serem italianos. O lema sempre foi : "A América sempre em primeiro lugar."

It is preserved ,in the flim registry's, so this flim will be comeing out on new format

Sergio Leone, Ennio Morricone and Claudia Cardinale.......all #1

The greatest is The Good The Bad The Ugly by a mile.

@@idum01 Which was made by Italians 😁

❤❤❤❤❤

I was ten years old when watching the movie the first time (1985), and i will put it that way: It, and the tough action of Frank in that scene, well, could maybe have influenced me so slightly, that i had named my own Son, 28yrs later, Tim(my) too, maybe to make that murder unhappen (Enzo Santaniello were just eight in the movie, two years younger than me at first watching)... And i am a enthusiast in turkeys... Some movies shouldn't really be watched before a specific age, i guess- two more traumas to fight because of that movie ;)... Nonetheless i adore this movie, and it awakens my love for (excellent to better) Italo westerns too, which are no less than kind of a life elixir for me...

And the electric guitar is a reverence to modern times with the same kind of villains and cruelty

Ryan Osbourne, I agree. Like scenes in William Friedkin’s “The Exorcist,” there is a darkness to this scene. And despite the increasing amounts of obscene, visceral content Hollywood can show in movies, this scene is exactly what you said it is.

Jack Palace in SHANE was very scary also.

I can go along with that. Funnily enough, I'm a huge fan of Clint Eastwood. Love every picture he ever appeared in. But Once Upon a Time in the West is my absolute favourite Western, even though Eastwood was absent. Leone may have left a few spaghetti stains around but that don't matter one iota. His westerns were the very best & Once Upon a Time is the great grand daddy of them all. I imagine Eastwood playing all of the lead roles in this epic masterpiece & I come up short. Every minute of every actor on film in this stunning & jaw-dropping work of art is picture perfect. I don't imagine Clint could have improved on any of the performers in this production. This movie is just supreme.

Movie name please

@@MrAnsuman2010 Are you trolling? Gotta be...

Absolutely Correct,AMAZING MAN !

Mm ☹️

Absolutely true Sergio Leone was the best but we has someone following his steps cinematography Quentin tarantino is genius too his special atention to audio and visual detail is genius

@@santinho212 Tarantino is a genius but his strength is in dialogue - Leone used very little dialogue but could create an entire story with no words at all - look at the opening scenes of The Good the Bad and the Ugly

jes ,de best sounding and moevie allll time ever

Top 5 for sure imho

Yet when released it was panned by critics and a financial dud. Paramount butchered it by removing 45 minutes, and what remained made no sense.

Truly inspires a unique response of indescribable feeling.

Before it's time.........light years

It's a toss up with good bad ugly.

I'd disagree

Agreed. But she's not Irish at all - Ms. Simonetta Santaniello.

She was Italian, like the child, who was her real brother, Enzo Santaniello.

@@AriaLuminosayes they looked like siblings

True.

Agreed. A depth realized through incredible artistry by everyone involved. Impossible to reproduce by going through the motions with a formula.

I saw this at Fort Braggmovie theater in Sumner of '68 and while frank was having his way with Mrs. McBain while she was laying topless in the bed on her stomach a guy called out "turn her over Frank" and got a round of applause.

It isn't sympathy, Frank wants a surviving witness to tell everyone what kind of coats the killers were wearing. The plan is ruined when one of his compatriots calls him by name, which is what causes his annoyance. But then he remembers how much he loves his job, and that unsettling smile reemerges.

...and that DARK harmonica and musical score filling the theater after the gun blasts 🥺

I was 17 when I saw this. I went not knowing or expecting anything. And then this...

And you omitted the star of this film......CC

The cast couldn’t have been better…IMO

Except for one obvious mistake

I agree with you!

I didn't get it at first either, but later, it makes sense that Frank was pretending to be Cheyenne, and the boy would rat him out if he lived. Frank only kills him after the henchman calls him by name.

The boy had to die in order to take the land. He was eleminating a potential heir and a witness.

😂😂😂

Is that Ed Sheeran?

WhT about when Cheyanne meets Harmonica for the first ?
