Spaghetti westerns have always interested me. I like how the italians wanted to make their movies like the ones made in hollywood. But the movies being cast by italians added a certain type of twist. Espcecially in the eerie music always being played in the background. Also the cinematography was excellent. You can definitely tell the directors really wanted the movies to look good. Also the close ups and gun dueling/gunfight scenes. I found it really cool how Lucas commented on Leone's use of music to add a sense of epic-ism while Lucas was filming Star Wars.
Throughout the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly you can see these traits added by the Italians. The movie is really a good movie, and it will always be a classic. Clint Eastwood's acting is good, and without him I don't think the movie would've been as good.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you in Spaghetti Westerns they focus alot on the music I think this is great You could watch the entire movie with no talking and know pretty much what is going on
ReplyDeleteI agree - the cinematography is excellent! The director really had a vision for how he wanted this movie to look and sound and like a true artist, he was able to pull those elements together with his storyline to make a masterpiece.
