Rabbit Hole

After yesterday's post, I got sucked into a rabbit hole of trying to work out what is the greatest western ever made.  I spent a very enjoyable evening watching loads of great scenes on YouTube.  I think, for me, it is between Once Upon A Time In The West and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.  I definitely favor the spaghetti westerns over the Wayne/Ford type westerns - better atmosphere, better cinematography, better soundtrack, much more memorable.  But it's been a while since I've seen either - so that's one of my goals for next week.

  1. G,B,& U - without a doubt. Eli Wallach's portrayal of Tuco is genuis.

    "Tuco Benedicto Pacifico, Juan Maria Ramirez - known as the rat."
