It's hard sometimes to choose between this one, the one in For A Few Dollars More, and the three way one in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Obviously OUATITW has the most emotional one, and I'll never forget the first time I saw the bit with the hanging for the first time. However the scene that gives me chills now is where Fonda blasts the McBain kid at the end of the massacre. It didn't occur to my young mind at the time, until a guy who drove our works van said that as a father it freaked him out. And this from a man who was a member of a local gun club! And I should remind our US friends here that guns are RARE in the UK! "Now that you've called me by name......" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbUbr-lbG_c Even by today's standards the ending is still pretty shocking !    Posted:   Sep 17, 2015 - 4:02 AM     By:   Thomas   (Member) I finally got around to watching this last night. An enjoyable film, a slight story but it was all done well. I liked the scenes when they were doing their work on the train. Music came across well too, with some scenes that just had the music playing at length.    Posted:   Sep 17, 2015 - 5:43 AM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) I finally got around to watching this last night. An enjoyable film, a slight story but it was all done well. I liked the scenes when they were doing their work on the train. Music came across well too, with some scenes that just had the music playing at length. Amongst the latter was Samurai's desperate chase. I'm afraid the music was overshadowed by wondering how he managed to make it back on board the train when he doesn't bend his legs when he runs! On the other hand, there was a long series of scenes with them simply working on the train with no scoring at all. I'm sorry but that dragged a bit, and I couldn't help comparing it (unfavourably) with the heist scene in Rififi, which worked brilliantly in silence.    Posted:   Sep 17, 2015 - 5:44 AM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) A heads up that this is being shown at 0.30am Friday morning. Never seen the film but a great score with an edgy main theme, the recurrent Muerte Donde Vas in several variations and some grindingly compelling action music. Can't wait to see it in situ. TG taking the plane out of new York. should be their by dinner time on 7/10/15 I'll be at your door sing "new York, new York". please have cold beer and some kind meat to eat. I don't take too much room, but a do eat a bit. Doggie - sorry, boy, missed this. You'd be more than welcome, apart from the cat may not take kindly to you invading her territory.    Posted:   Sep 17, 2015 - 8:22 AM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) im savouring this. half way through in two chunks. will watch the rest in peace over weekend. "Hey animal!! hurry up and feed them chickens, i got work for you to do."    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 10:31 AM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) "I just joined the revolution!" to annoy joan, im just reporting that i thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the Dutchman and his army last night. And tonight on Movies4men, A Bullet for the General, 7.55pm!    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 12:27 PM     By:   joan hue   (Member) "to annoy joan." Bloody right, I'm annoyed. I want to see this western. Bloody Brits Binging American Bandwidths. Who cares what is playing in Britain?    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 12:47 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) "to annoy joan." Bloody right, I'm annoyed. I want to see this western. Bloody Brits Binging American Bandwidths. Who cares what is playing in Britain? oh joanie it was great. Especially all those Morricone theme music variants that werent on the CD! Do you know what, Hueybaby - i may watch it again tonight! i wonder if TG will watch again too? Then we could both report back. by the way whats a "binging"? is that where we sing Crosby songs?? And more to the point, whats a bandwidth? is that when Earth wind and fire or Def Leppard lie down across the stage and see how far they can reach??!    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 12:52 PM     By:   Bob DiMucci   (Member) TCM in the U.S. has run it in the past, and eventually they'll run it again. Of course, it's always available (at a price) from the Warner Archive.    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 1:27 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) great poster bob. Cant believe Ennio gets no credit!! Hes the 6th man in the army! there is a tiny line along the bottom, cant read it. it either says All rights reserved or Superb Music by the great Morricone! ha ha.    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 1:33 PM     By:   joan hue   (Member) Someone should help poor bill with vocabulary. In the meantime, I shall "binge" on some chocolate and check out TCM offerings.    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 2:29 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) i thought you meant bingeing. one of those words that you spelt correctly huey you smartarse, but everybody knows it should be spelt bingeing. Otherwise binging looks like we should be crooning like Bing or that you left the r out after the b!! ha ha    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 3:00 PM     By:   joan hue   (Member) http://www.gingersoftware.com/english-online/spelling-book/misspelling/binging-bingeing-biinging    Posted:   Sep 23, 2015 - 3:29 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) yeah yeah i know i know.

Keep rubbing it in. Be careful not to open any strange packages from America that may arrive on your doorstep especially if they move or have dangling wires.    Posted:   Sep 25, 2015 - 4:55 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) youre sending me a new battery for my ninja motorbike?! wow thanks joanie, so thoughtful. in the meantime, "...
