Once Upon A Time In The West (1969)

[Scott]

Well, I finally finished the great film that is ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST by director Sergio Leone and starring Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Jason Robards, and Claudia Cardinale. After viewing it I recognized the death scene of Frank with the harmonica in his mouth from when I caught 10 minutes of it on AMC one day. I stopped surfing the channels that day when I saw the boy holding up a man on his shoulders until the boy couldn't hold him up anymore resulting in his hanging with the younger Frank looking on. It was a great scene and I didn't even know what the movie was till now. Thanks to those who suggested this viewing. Great film. Sergio Leone is truely the greatest director. The right degree of everything for me.

I've always hated that they gave away the whole "killed his brother" thing on the back of the box.  I know it's getting harder and harder to avoid spoilers for movies, especially one as old as this, but the back of the damn box!  What the hell were they thinking?
