Once Upon a Time in the West

In this documentary, this movie is explained as being a remix of all Hollywood westerns. Shane and High Noon are two movies that has reference to this film. The gentleman talks about how the scenes are almost identical. He provides examples from High Noon such as the gun shooters waiting on the train as it slowly arrives . The example he gives for Shane is the scene with the boy and the gun. He speaks on music and image ans how they provide a distinctive atmosphere and the actors respond well this. The songs that are played serves as that actors "theme song." I liked how he described a traditional gun scene. He stated that they are usually two guys on opposite ends (one good,one bad) and when they meet up they usually circle around each other a if they were doing a 'two step." After he mentioned this I realized that that is true. It does seem to happen like that!
