One of the best movies of all time. I just watched it again the other day.

The only one left now is Claudia Cardinale.

RIP.

“Once Upon A Time In The West”.

All trussed up in that back brace.

OHMSS- Draco- the “legitimate” construction contractor.

BTW Diana Rigg was stunning in that movie. Better than when she was in the Avengers.

“Tuberculosis of the bones”

She looked great, yes. He was 007s father in law for about 45 seconds.

Completely creepy. Charles Bronson was amazing in that movie, though.

Never saw it as creepy....

Saw it as a awesome movie...with pretty well known actors getting X'd out at the very beginning...Woody Strode and Jack Elam.

A classic beginning of a movie....and genius by Sergio.
