Once Upon a Time .....

[atom3624]

..... they made REAL movies, with story lines, fantastic actors, ....

Yeah, yeah, we've heard that before.

Stumbled on my all time FAVOURITE Western.

Not True Grit
Not Good, the Bad, the Ugly - nearly my equal favourite Western, 'though I'm not really into Westerns, just action, principles, etc. ....

Once Upon a Time in the West - FANTASTIC!!

Caught in by chance on Sky Classics HD.

Fonda, Robards, Bronson ....

I like westerns myself on the rare occasion I get chance to sit down and watch 1 but cant say Ive seen it. Will look out for it as they usually repeat them over the week.

Not a western but I watched the Dirty Dozen before Christmas!

Bloody great Movie Al

But my favorite has to be The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly :2guns:

Both are involving real history, if somewhat 'adapted' for the silver screen.
Music is fantastic in both.

..... same era mate!!

NOTHING.

Not Westerns 'though.

Original Italian Job was great.
Great Escape kind of grated a tad after 15 consecutive Christmases!!
Still a great movie.

Good one James.

Loved his music in the movies. This was particularly a gem.
It just made them such complete movies.
Nowadays it seems that unless John Williams has had something to do with it, it's just some form of remix / rehash of a chart music .....
