Continuing with Leone…
Once Upon A Time in the West - What a movie. Watching all these in order you can really see Leone grow and learn to apply/execute different elements. The scope of GBU, but executed better, the character intrigue of A Few Dollars More, but more complex and with multiple characters (including the first female role with any agency). The ending that comes together in a way so perfectly that it even made parts I wasn’t sure I liked (the harmonica sound) into real story points that made it so it all made sense. A main character with real motivation beyond money.
Wonderful film. It’s tough to order these movies in terms of “best”. They are all so different and all so excellent.
