[Western] Published in 1969
I’m sorry to have never met a woman who likes western movies, but this time it’s a western movie.
The movie music master Ennio Morricone was lost on the 6th of this month, and he had lots of melody in his mind, Nihil was cool, passionate, and sometimes horrifying. Of course, I reminded me of movies as well as music.
A rendition of Akira Kurosawa’s “Bouncer” played by Sergio Leone’s “Bouncer in the wilderness”. I think many boys have become fans.
Since that day, I’ve watched Ennio Morricone chase after music-making movies. (It’s quite a flow at the store)
“Elevator on death row”, “New Cinema Paradise”, “Untouchable”, etc. are famous, but there’s no other reason to give up…
This time I would like to introduce “Western” directed by Sergio Leone. I don’t remember any more movies when it comes to music excitement.
The story is that in the western pioneering era, when a station is built, a town is created and people with various dreams come together, and desires swirl. Brett, one of the pioneers, was one of them, but Frank (Henry Fonda), who suddenly appeared in preparation for welcoming his beautiful wife Jill (Claudia Cardinale) to his family, killed them all. Jill, who has become a widow without starting a new life, decides to take revenge on her husband and live on the land she tried to protect.
Frank, who was hired by the railway company, pretends to be the work of the bandit Cheyenne. Jill, desperately trying to survive, joins Cheyenne (Jason Roberts), who tries to get wet, and the mysterious gunman Harmonica (Charles Bronson), and gets closer to the railroad company and Frank, which is the truth of the case.
Moricone’s music excites the movie more than the actor in the duel scene and the majestic last scene, which are the climax of the movie for nearly three hours.
Sergio Leone invited to Hollywood to shoot the so-called macaroni western asked Bernardo Bertrich to draft the original as an homage to the orthodox western drama, it was made in a form that completely ignored the expectations of Hollywood, and as a result the world It’s a masterpiece that surpasses the traditional Western acclaimed by. (I just didn’t want to receive it in the US because the national actor Henry Fonda was appointed as an enemy)
Claudia Cardinale, who plays Jill, is sensual and may not be female, but it is beautiful. In addition, Henry Fonda, the American national actor at the time, played a villain, and it was addicted to it, further enhancing the goodness of the lone gunman Charles Bronson.
Ironically, since this movie, almost no orthodox western plays have been made. It’s about “Unforgivable” directed by Clint Eastwood.
I don’t think women watch Westerns unless there’s a great deal, but if you are interested, please take a look. If you like “Gone with the wind”, you’ll be fine…
5 western movies I think
1. “Shoot towards tomorrow”
2. “Station wagon”
3. “Midday duel”
4. “Wild Bunch”
5. “Shane”
