Once Upon a Time in the West
From 1968, Once Upon a Time in the West is the final spaghetti western from Italian director Sergio Leone, and it's a fantastic, sprawling, epic movie that features pretty much everything you would want from a film. It has great action, great dialogue, great acting, superb direction, a great Ennio Morricone soundtrack, it's all there, making for a fantastic film. Henry Fonda plays a bad guy, which was already against type, and here he plays him as such a cold-blooded bastard that it was downright shocking when it came out in '68. His nemesis is Charles Bronson, no stranger to awesome westerns or action movies himself, and their rivalry culminates in a great finale, and at 165 minutes, it's a nice, long build up to a great pay off, something Leone always excelled at in every film he made. Check it out now!
