The Best Western Opening Scene Ever 

One

AMd

This scene. 9.0 out of ten. The whole movie, about a 9.5 out of ten. I stumbled on this movie one night by accidnt and decided to watch and I was captivated. I think its one of the best westerns I have ever seen.

HAHHA, I was thinking the same thing. This mofo badass if he plays his own music.

Like the music box in a few dollars more, or the Bible speech in pulp fiction. When you hear that., it means your ass

Luckily for him Morricone didn't write it for piano.

@@driewiel hahaha great comment!

This was the first thought that came to mind lol

@barry6941 Why's that?

onwLike I what was said about all the true old country music makers "Who gonna fill their shoes?" ain't no one stepping up that I see

@@rogerdavies6226 Try Benjamin Tod and his wife, a.k.a. "Lost Dog Street Band". One of the best Outlaw Folk/Bluegrass/Country I've heard since Tyler Childers' "Nose To The Grindstone".

Sturgil Simpson…Jamey Johnson… And people HATED this spaghetti schlock, when it came out…(I love it, so back off…And accept that there’s the lucky few, that respect, and enjoy it, while acknowledging, there’s justified critique… I just can’t…cause I’ll watch anything w Jack Elam in it…..

Look at wagon train, Bonanza, Gun smoke they all had oil painted mountains in the background.

I love that scene. Nothing happens and it never gets boring.

And don't forget a hat being fill with water.

Exactly! Jack Elam trying to blow away a fly that lands on his face. That whole movie is amazing.

like the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. 18 minutes with no dialogue.

I love that part!@@crimlarksSteve

i seen this movie many times and yesterday again on tv. it is a masterpiece with brilliant music and great actors. merry xmas

Ditto and I'm 78~!!

Exactly same here Sir Born in 1953 and without a doubt my favourite film i don’t know how many times I have watched it and a music well i don’t think I got words to describe it must a heard music probably 100 times.

There best...two too many...

Well Charles really was a badass.

My favourite Bronson line is in Death Wish II. (Looking at crucifix necklace of bad guy) "Do you believe in Jesus?" Bad guy: "Yes I do." "Well you're gonna meet him" * bang *

Would've been nice to have had Clint Eastwood utilize the other horse. Then there would have been two bad asses.

@@timhinchcliffe5372 Yes that was a great line.

WHAT WAS THAT MOVIE ? THAT IS AMAZING. GREAT ACTING

My brother, who's now a fire chief used to bring him oxygen in his later years in Ashland, Oregon. Said he was a real nice guy. Great old cowboy actor. Peace!

@@gregvetter5070and that's where he died was in Ashland. So cool your brother knew him on a personal level!

That’s a great story. I’m ashamed to say I only knew him as the doctor in Cannonball Run, and I was actually a little proud of myself for recognizing him here because of the age difference. Him and that damned finger made my childhood brighter lol. But now I’ll have to watch some more of his work.

Great badguy. Was an movie accountant and supposedly asked Sam Goldwyn to let him play in a movie instead of his usually salary. That look was amazing.

My favorite movie with Jack Elam is Support Your Local Sheriff. He's hilarious in that movie.

It's pretty good but Eastwood's "Get three coffins ready" is better.

@@oregonflatland "Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?" - Josie Wales (Clint Eastwood)

It's the audience that is being pandered to with thier ADHD. A casual movie goer these days would find this scene long and boring. I wish more filmmakers would stop pandering to today's audience's and just make a really good movie. Few directors are though but no one sees them.

Yes!

Because the talented dop is muslim

In real life? Firing from the hip with a pistol in real life at that speed means missing the target. Add to that the range they are firing from. The odds are on the side of the three men, not the one. After the first shot that missed, they'd all be trying to get to some sort of cover or concealment. When I train for something like this, I'm normally about three feet away from my practice targets. What we are seeing is the west as Holly Wood portrays it. Not saying that this isn't one of the best gun fights ever produced for the movies because it is. I suggest you read some books or video about how most gun fights really went down. Not trying to cut you down. It is a bad ass scene.

Sergio Leone had a knack for creating great scenes like this, as he did with his "Man with no Name" trilogy. I'd say that a lot of westerns after it, tried to follow that style of directing, with some succeeding and others not so much. I'd say that "Unforgiven" did a good job of presenting this style of buildup in a scene.

the score came first. leitmotif. this was the only movie to do that. as far as themes for characters, starwars, lord of the rings also do it, but the score didn't dictate the story. this is also the best score ever for a movie.

Agreed, superb use of music. If I remember correctly, Cheyenne's theme is played after he is dead from the gunshot wound, rather than Harmonica's theme. Of course Harmonica got his guy, so why use the theme? Yet, Cheyenne is dead, so why use his theme? I still wonder why he chose Cheyenne's theme after he died.

Don't forget the fly that breaks them all down.

Top of the morning to you buddy 🇮🇪🇯🇴✌️💯☪️☪️☪️

*Woody Strode, Jack Elam, and Charles Bronson* all served in WWII - even though Elam was blind in one eye. Charles Bronson was a gunner in a B-29 Superfortress, flew 25 missions including over Japan, was wounded and received a Purple Heart. It's strange to think of that generation of actors and how many served in the war.

two too* many

@@Tsamokie stop.

One of my favourite quotes in all cinema. 5 words that utterly evaporate any confidence those cowboys had. Delivered as a matter of fact.

media.tenor.com/8rAXolE-CYwAAAAM/spongebob-scared.gif

Yep, they were order takers for Frank, and didn't appear to be the sharpest knives in the drawer, but, it didn't take Elam and Strodes very long to figure out what CB meant by THAT statement, lol.

Yeah he takes a "hit", but, no blood, he puts his arm in a sling and he's good to go? I agree it adds the layer but it does seem pretty thin in that regard. Edit: ok fine, i saw the blood on his shoulder blade after watching again, but that was barely noticeable, lol.

@@barneys4236 I noticed the blood right away, also he's clearly injured so I wouldn't say he's good to go.

@@sam8404 Well, he got up and kept going so yes, my point still stands - he was good to go.

How is this movie call or nane; it whorts to show my boys the leyend wéstern movies! 😊💪🏽👊🏽👋🏾 best regards.

@@TheRrsierra68 This is 'Once upon a time in the West'. Music by Ennio Morricone, one of the greatest sound tracks ever. I have seen this movie at least 20 times and still love it. Absolute must see.

It gives the impression he has done it many times before

@@CH3FFI3 Been there, done that, got the coat...

Yes I enjoyed it also but I kind of wish he would have wrapped it with something to stop the bleeding would have been more real~!!!

I would argue it is the best western ever made. The only other contender that come to mind is Unforgiven. After that there is a lot of competition.

I would put The Good, the Bad and the Ugly up there with this one and Unforgiven in the top 3 slots.

Oh, I thought this was Blazing Saddles

What is this movie?

@@jamesmaybrick2001 I agree with you 100%! Clint Eastwood hit it out of the park with Unforgiven!!

I’m 27 and I share your frustration in this. It’s truly sad that we’ve not only lost the appreciation for such excellent scenes and pacing. But deem it as something bad and would be critiqued if it came out today, for being way too drawn out and slow in today’s society.

I am 15 and totally agree with you! Far too many of my peers use attention span draining applications and cant enjoy good things anymore without getting bored very quickly...

The end scene was far too long for even the most dedicated fan to watch. All that boring staring at each other.

Most people talk in sound bites and can't even carry a conversation. Social media has distorted their minds so bad that they can't hold on to a subject for 5 minutes straight. Sad

I could not roll my eyes harder at this comment

Good, Bad and the Ugly.. all time best.

Wild Bunch.

As art, this is the best western ever made. I agree.

"Young Guns" gets my vote.

There are so many though... One eyed Jacks, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid, fistful of dollars trilogy, Tombstone, assasination of Jesse James, the list goes on...

If not the greatest-in the top 5 westerns for sure-The Musical score was awesome.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly had the greatest music score by far.

The waiting and shootout could've been a short film by itself. Its it's own story.

yes the audio alone is the star of this piece. the fly getting trapped in the gun barrel etc

Yeah, this clip was too short and started too late. The flies buzzing around while they are waiting, the water dripping into the man's hat until it's enough to take a sip.... those build so much of the atmosphere of this scene.

What movie is this?

I love the way the three characters are built up, only to be wasted five minutes into the film.

brought

It's right up there with: "My mistake, 4 coffins." from "A Fistful of Dollars"

@@Alobo075 absolutely!!

And that's when the guys knew they were in trouble..... to be that sure of yourself in the face of 3 armed men, clearly there to kill you.

@@Alobo075 Or "Yojimbo".

you are fortunate

Bronson is my favorite actor of all time What a guy

He is an ahole in real life. Big time. Everyone hated the guy on set.

@@brucef310 While working on The Great Escape, told David McCallum that he was going to 'take his wife'.. Imagine that. Well, he got Jill Ireland and David moved on.

@@ydcee3123 i wonder if he played his harmonica first.... before he told him.

*This is the best OPENING scene ever, because they got the sound of the rusty windmill ALMOST right.* Other than that? It's mostly complete shit. The "brought one horse too many" line is the ONLY good thing about it. The rest is Hollywood bullshit, and you all know it. If you think you like this, try Justified. After season 2 you'll think it's great. Once you pass season 4 you'll realize it's the best show of this century.

@@jonslg240 who pissed in your cup of coffee, boy?

@@StudioSerious1 ooh that's so slyyy.. acting like it wasn't you 😂😂

@@jonslg240 True.... Justified is a brilliant show and because of that it's on my 'watch again' list. There is absolutely no 'Hollywood Bullshit' in this movie, quite the opposite. Only two geniuses (Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone) could create such a masterpiece. I get the feeling that you are ignoring the music and even if you hear it, you are unable to see the context. Where in any Hollywood film or TV show do you hear music like this? And where in any Hollywood production do you find scenes with so little dialogue yet so much content?

@@jonslg240 this is not a Hollywood movie

I thought he was going to get to his feet and fond his harmonica had taken the bullet for him. Too cheesy?

@@cnrspiller3549 I was expecting that too, the fact that he was actually hit and just walks it off is way better.

He should've used two buttons, that one is going to pop right off.

Prevedite na hrvatski fala

I liked the way that he did it looked like he's done it before. Like *sigh* gonna be one of those days...

Glad you enjoyed it- I was born in 1950 and this one Ranks up there,not only with top 5 westerns but top 10 movies of all time-My opinion.

see shane and decide again.

No. It was simply one of the best films around of all times.

No, but certainly the slowest and most cliche'.

@@inkybeecher4172 Oh look we have an edgelord here 🤡

Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross. By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free gift.

Two Things: 1. Henry Fonda playing a Villain; 2. Later on at the end of the film when Fonda's character realizes who Bronson's character is.

And also grew up dirt poor and worked as a miner among other tough jobs.

Wow he got money for being a minor? Most kids don't get paid as minors, lol

@@motterjeffjm Jeff. Notice how I spelled the word. I really hope your joking and know difference between miner and minor. Fun fact: England passed the first labor law in 1833 ( which forbade any child under age of 9 to work) children were used in factors and mines for centuries. The US passed it federal labor laws in 1938. Have a good one!

@@brianmurphy250 well said brian / Bronson Coburn mqueen Newman a different class of actors seemed to drift into acting but playing them selves/

I sure wish movies still celebrated real men.

Yes. I'd never seen anything like it before. It was a revelation that a scene where nothing happens can be so filled with events.

@@sfjocko Then the action is all over in about two seconds - blink and you'd miss it. No modern director would dare do that - it would be all slow motion with agonised faces and squibs exploding under the actors' shirts. Leone gets it all over with, no gore, and we're back to the eerie silence.

Exactly. And Henry Fonda as Frank... he not only takes actors and turns them into different people, I think he intentionally subverted their popular image, so sweetheart Fonda plays a bad guy, and tough guy Bronson plays a sympathetic victim seeking justice.

I never even realized it was Bronson until he spoke. His face always seemed somewhat wider in every other movie I've seen him in.

"you brought"....

I love the squeaking of the wind mill water pump.

It's great - but, realistic shootout? Nah..

@@daniel_j_a Realistic by early Hollywood standards.

Realistic shootout. 😅😂😅

God bless you and your dad ❤

I thought it was R2D2.

@@davidszabo1618 OK, not up on the latest games. Mostly ride motorcycles and get out doors.

Epic for sure- compared to today's junk movies with Actors/actresses that couldn't hold a candle to Bronson, Fonda and Claudia. Even Ole Jack Elam was a master compared to some of today's so called stars.

All off them great faces for a closeup. 🤠

4 men in the scene but only 3 faces. Who was the other guy?

@@paule.parker9714 The third hired gun was Al Mulock, a well established actor and seen in another Leone film as well. He committed suicide before the opening scene was completed, and that's the reason you don't see his face the last few minutes (a stand in was filmed from behind). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Mulock

@@Vinterfrid i thouhht he fell

Mame of Novie ???

Are you talking about Twilight?

Not to mention the harmonica dubbing.

Except for the anachronistically white teeth and the missing propeller sound.

@@steinwey true Dental issues were a big drawback in them days

@@steinwey Realism goes only so far. Suspend disbelief...its "only" a movie.

I also liked his part as a gladiator fighting with Kirk Douglas as Spartacus, when Strode wins but decides not to kill Spartacus but prefers to die by attacking the romans...

Yes, I think the same about Woody and have you seen "The Professionals"~? He's great in that one too~!

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is better with better music as well.

Fonda went in to read for the part with brown colored contact lenses. The director was angry; no, no, no; he wanted Fonda's blue eyes. Good call.

Bronson wasn't acting.....He really kilt them fools.

Charlie :-)

Though he didn’t know how to pretend to play mouth organ!

@St. James Hawke A Lithuanian Eskimo from Pennsylvania?

I was a bus boy at Logan Airport in 1977 or 78, still in high school. I hung out with Charles, his wife Jill Ireland, and 2 or 3 of their young children, for about 3 hours. They were so nice, you can't imagine. I had many celebrity encounters (talked to David Bowie for several minutes, who was incredibly nice as well) but most famous people are pretty cold and not so nice. Charles Bronson was one cool dude, as well as a good husband and father.

I agree

Agreed. They've cropped this clip so it gets straight to the climax, but the whole build-up with the windmill,. the fly in the gun, the terrified ticket seller and the rest is all part of the pace and tension of the scene.

@@JohnSecker Without the constant windmill squeeking, the dripping water tower or the anticipation of the train's arrival, this scene is missing most of what made it so great. I'm not a western movie fan, but this movie is different than the others from the 1960s-the visuals of this movie have the impact of the best comic books of those days, it's film in comic book form. One of my favorite movies that I watch very often! 👍

The water dripping on Woody Strode is the best part of the buildup.

The cowboy on far left was Al Mulock. After shooting this scene he went back to his hotel room in entire cowboy outfit and jumped off hotel. He died on way to hospital. He was in Good, Bad, and Ugly. The one arm bad guy in bath tub seen. They say he was terrible drug abuser.

The usual omission: Clouds of white gunsmoke from black powder.

Would have been better is he was gender swapped and the bad guys made cat calls.

@@FoulPet 🤣🤣🤣

You’re thinking of Annie Get Your Gun. Or maybe Calamity Jane?

Totally agree there was a scene that I really liked in a few dollars more , between Klaus kinski and Lee van cleef, when he strikes a match on his haunched shoulder at the bar with his Klaus tune for that character, and he , is stopped from drawing against Lee character, then ,Lee van cleef, takes his cigar , and light his pipe , Klaus kinski , character you could see the anger as his eyes swelling up, as the background music plays , brilliant scene Lee van cleef character smokes in his face. to anger him

It's in the writing and theatricality.

Take off the rose glasses. Put down the memberberrys and stop drinking the coolade.

@@llywelynddraig853 Are you going to something?

They can they just choose not too. If you don't expect much they don't have to do much.

Funny thing is a scifi adventure show like The Mandalorian is clearly Clint Eastwood in space. Han Solo is also a cowboy type persona.

The Western genre may be dead (with no signs of revival anytime soon) but elements of it have been implemented to other genres, especially sci fi. I'd really recommend Trigun (1998), its an anime that takes place on a desert planet called Gunsmoke where people have to survive using "plants," inter-dimensional beings that are capable of producing power and energy as well as water. It's the perfect blend of western and sci fi.

Yes, the fact that the great Woody Strode was able to get a shot off even as he was mortally wounded adds a wonderful touch to the scene.

The harmonica didn't take a shot, Bronson was actually hit in the shoulder, hence why he slung his arm afterwards.

@@Sergei_Ivanovich_Mosin He doesn't mean the literal harmonica got hit ! Charles Bronson's character is called "Harmonica".

Yes, CGI is ruining movies. I don’t want to watch a video game! 😄

2022 is fan dis-service, CGI, screen tint, McGuffins, character replacement, retcon, time travel, and forced identity politics. Analog film making is becoming a lost art.

@@bolt4694 true, it is a shame that he never got the recognition that he deserved

@@bolt4694 Ranks just right behind Leslie Nielsen and Danny Trejo among those who transitioned from a slew of bad-guy roles to comedy gold. Vinnie Jones gets an honorable mention for his turn in Galavant, even though only a lucky few apparently watched that brief, brilliant series.

One of the Best westerns ever, Fonda in his most evil role. Bronson, Robards superb and Claudia was stunning. Jack Elam in that opening scene was better in his 2 minutes than most actors are today in an entire movie.

What was the movie called

@@danielkeeney8444 if you mean this one, then it's "Once upon a Time in the West"

What's even more genius about Leone was that for most of his movies, he had Morricone compose the music first, telling him only length and the atmospheric mood he wanted for each scene. Then he fit the action to the music.

@@SirGutWriter Wow I wasn't aware of this and I have been a fan for more than 1/2 a century

I think this was easily one of Henry Fonda's best piece of work. I would have loved to see him play more villains. For me? Best line in the film is when the sits down at the desk and the businessman asks him what he thinks of it.... Morton: How does it feel sitting behind that desk, Frank? Frank: It's almost like holding a gun... only much more powerful.

Consider that none of the characters who died in the first ten minutes ever spoke one word makes your statement all the more truthful!!

Thank you Brother Dove, may Satan rule your life for all eternity, Ramen

@@dove3853 There is no historical evidence that Jesus was crucified. There is no evidence that he was resurrected. The four gospel accounts completely contradict each other and are obviously written as theological fiction, not fact. By the way, the gospel account is that he was dead for less than two days, from late Friday until mid-Sunday. You don't even know the Bible you claim to follow. The Ten Commandments are not the moral law. They are the religious law. Out of 10, the first four teach us that jealousy is an admirable trait. Most cultures venerate one's elders so the 5th is stating the obvious. Numbers 6, 8, and 9 are already illegal in every culture, Christian or not, so no contribution there, and the surrounding passages give every possible excuse for breaching number 6 on the slightest pretext such as God commanding the killing of a man for gathering sticks on the Sabbath. It would be interesting trying to make laws in relation to number 10 which deals only with what is going on inside a person's mind. It also treats a wife as a man's chattel equivalent to his ox or his ass, which is in keeping with the misogyny of the Bible generally. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tz3EEqtcJME.html
