Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I guess I prefer the euro version

As I imply below, one of the things I most enjoy about Leone is that his plots don't drive along fast - lots of individual elements in his films appear a bit purposeless, or could have been done more economically.

I doubt that any US film maker could have persuaded anyone to finance such things, even had they wanted to make it.

Good bad & ugly, especially, wanders all over the place, and to good, no - mighty, effect, I reckon.

Which ain't to say in the least that Hollywood can't make westerns. But I do think that Leone brought them something extra.

If I am not mistaken, Leone has not been taken very seriously as a film maker in the States. It's different here in Oz.
