    The praise in the comments for Sergio Leone is of course fully warranted. However, don't overlook the contribution of Tonino Delli Colli, the cinematographer. Leone's films would not have been lit and photographed nearly as well without him. Too often directors get credit when it belongs elsewhere.

    • @TheGlasgowGamer
      @TheGlasgowGamer 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      I totally agree. It is why Citizen Kane was probably Welles’ finest film. It wasn’t just his extraordinary vision and how he instructed his collaborators as to how the scenes should look and play out, but also the incredible lighting and depth of field from the one and only Gregg Tolland. Cinematographers arguably have the most difficult job in film. To actually make it look good on both cinema and TV screens, but more so cinema of course.

    This movie needs much more recognition. It's literally a hidden masterpiece and it's Sergio Leone's "Godfather" and much realistic, but convincing potrayal of America during the early 20th century and prohibition era. I would go far as rank this above the Godfather and one of the best movies ever made or atleast that I have ever seen

    • @andreybellamy6381
      @andreybellamy6381 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This movie is much deep and stronger than "The Godfather", because Leone don`t show gangsters in this movie like a people with honor and dignity, this is the BIGGEST difference between the movies. Yes, Michael turns out to be evil at the end of Part 1 too, but not in the same way that Noodles and his crew were in this movie. Once Upon a Time in America is just much more...adult?

      @@andreybellamy6381 This film is very different to The Godfather, it is much more believable, and much more relatable, honour and loyalty are in the hands of Max, Noodles, Cockeye and Patsy, it's Noodles Gang, and Max seduces the gang into turning against Noodles in a very subtle way, which is why Noodles dreams the follow on that he does. His gang has been taken, all that remains is for Max to take his woman and his cut of the money, and not only that, he takes his bloodline too, a really toxic future, he had to imagine that ending to justify his action in the death of his three friends, that said, Noodles was a very cold in the way he approached things, the powerful moments of reflection make us love his character despite his many flaws, nothing comes close to this film, it is misunderstood, and it was butchered in the cutting room.

    This is easily a Flawless Masterpiece. The emotions I felt while watching it as a 14 year old boy and then Re-watching it as an Adult I wouldn't able to explain in words. It's a powerful picture that was heavily snubbed at the Oscars! This is Sergio Leone Masterpiece! I also love the ending so much, its arguably the greatest ending to any movie ever! If you have never watched this film before I recommend that you check it out, make sure to have a lot of spare time as this film is nearly 4 hours long but it's worth every second. Obviously you could cut it down to episodes but I wouldn't recommend doing that, its a type of experience that you just have to sit through till the end. It hits differently if you pause the film and then come back to it later, it just doesn't work the same way at least in my opinion.

    This film has to have some of the most beautiful cinematography of any crime film I’ve ever seen, heck, probably any film period. The way Leone so epically recreates New York in the three time periods with their various differences and similarities coupled with the almost dreamlike atmosphere of the entire production it’s a truly beautiful film and probably one of the best films ever made, for my money.
    Tonino Delli Colli (who also shot Once Upon A Time In The West and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly for Leone) really does not get enough credit for having shot several of the most beautiful films in history.

    Me alegra que Sergio Leone haya cumplido su sueño de hacer "Once upon a time in America", unos años después se animó a hacer con ayuda de productoras rusas, una película sobre el asedio de 800 días contra Stalingrado, que seguramente habría sido su obra más cruda y dramática, quería que el protagonista fuese Robert DeNiro.
    Pero tristemente falleció después de pisar el primer estribo de ese proyecto.
    Sólo podemos alegrarnos de que esa también hubiera sido una genial película.

    This movie when finished was 10 hours long and then cut to the theater version of a little over 2 hours which ruined it.
    The critics panned it as it was made so that it really had no story.
    It should be brought back as the 10 hour series.
    Reedited to its full length.
    It is so good that it could still stand on its own and become one of the best series EVER.
    I think all the stars are still alive.

    Sergio Leone always has the best visuals I’ve ever seen. Morricone’s music was always most perfect when he worked with Leone. The best duo to ever grace cinema and WAY ahead of their time; the visuals and music coupled together r better than anything that was released prior to or since each of their movies

    The beauty and uniqueness of Leone
    Is that he always wanted the actor to express the human insight of the character
    And this is totally different from acting
    Example is the way Bronson and Fonda played the role in the most iconic western of all times”once upon a time in the west”
