An underrated masterpiece from the greatest filmmaker of all time, Morricone's complete score is my favourite
underrated by who ? lol, not by me
mine too.......
Have watched many movies in my time , this to me is a 4 star . The acting is superb, the soundtrack deserved an Oscar nomination . the cinematography is spot on . It has epic proportions .
I think the film deserved a lot of Oscars and not only for the music. If the production had been American, with an American director, the Oscars would have been galore.
Would’ve been so much more epic if they hadn’t deleted several scenes that would’ve explained the plot more… same with Once Upon a Time in America!!!
My personal favorite Leone movie.
My favorite movie period.
Between this one and 'Once Upon a Time in the West' is such a short call... Ok, 'Duck You Sucker' music wins hands down.
p.s. as for the 'menage a trois', Sir Christopher Frayling missed the point, rather strangely if you'd ask me as he did such a fantastic job anywhere else.
The woman James Koburn and David Warbeck's characters are sharing, is not a 'human figure; per se, but freedom.
Anyway, I'd suggest you read Fryling' "Something to do With Death." No other book has better talked about Sergio Leone.
Matteo Prezioso the music is fucking sublime and one the reasons I make music
@@MatteoPrezioso thank you. I agree
This film is a f'ing masterpiece!!! Nothing less!
My applause to you. So right. A wonderful film
I loved this movie as a kid and after seeing it in the theater I stayed and watched it a second time.
At age 11 it was seared into my mind.Setting the bar.
@Steve Rakes 🤝 I was 15 on the film’s release, it was the noon show, and exactly the same experience occurred to me ! Then I came back to the theater the day after, at noon again, for another double screening, then…, etc. I remember that In the end Il ’d seen it « ten times » ´over two or three weeks, until i almost knew by heart all the lines of each character. On watching now the above clip, I do realize I still have quite a good memory afifty years. Geee-half a century !!! Times fliiiiies, definitely. ⏳

First saw this movie on IFC when I was 14, has stuck to my mind ever since. The Dollars Trilogy was cool but there’s something about Duck you Sucker that no other film has, not even Once Upon A Time in America… :)
10 years old with my younger brothers… Canadian version had the Mao quote. I remember reading that.
My father bought the soundtrack LP and we played it while eating dinner.
The cinematography and soundtrack of this movie is one of the best I have ever seen/listened.
Leone movies were really like opera, emotions, character developments, great stories.
This movie and The Good ,Bad, Ugly are one of my favourite movies ever.
I was fortunate enough to see this in a theater when it was released. A Fistful of Dynamite? Nah, the title will always be Duck You Sucker to me! Juan and John putting on the moves...very heavy
Leone said all his movies were about friendship. If you think about his films, it's one of the key elements that makes them all great. The music score in this one is so haunting it may be my favorite of all Morricone's works. Too bad so few movies by Leone were made.
Fistful was not
If he had gotten to make Leningrad.. would’ve been an epic war romance drama!!
Sir Christopher Frayling's observations and remarks on "Duck, You Sucker" are spot on.
Tremendously overlooked and underrated film!!!
Quite a layer cake of a movie. Damn good movie.
Thank you. I love this film. The best director
@half a rasher raytown and be strong to you as well friend
Leone has taken out every mythological aspects in Far West, Revolution and Mob, but he told us in sublime ways.
His Narrative has become the very myth.
I loved this movie as a kid it was always my favourite western. I’ve discovered a totally new side to this movie with this documentary making the film even more enjoyable. I’ve never seen the cut scene which has just blown me away like a dynamite explosion 💥
I have been very fortunate to have seen this classic and extremely happy to have found a vinyl copy of the music soundtrack.
This will forever be my personal favorite out of all of Leone’s films.
Brilliantly done. One of the best, definitely, of its genre.
"Terrorism appeared on the streets of Rome for the first time ever." I'm guessing Frayling isn't a student of ancient history.
I watched this movie at\s a child....I don't understand why I liked it at the time. It was funny and sad; I remember being shocked with the innocent people getting killed. It was mixed with prophecy/destiny or something. Very magical - I never forgot it. When I got older I searched for the move by piecing together the actors and moments I remember
Soo Mallory was to be played by Cheyenne (Once upon a time in the west)...interesting
Thanks for uploading this documentary. Giú la testa, what a movie!!
I love Leone he is the best director of all time. I dont think Leone is having an attack on left wing politics. He just hates bullshit.🍀👌🏆
@Barfy Man yes probably.👍
Well said
The sound track , the scene , actors , putting all togather all at the top of their trades , never will be bettered
Leone is the Greatest Director of all time ♥️
Thanks for uploading, very interesting doc.
By chance, I was watching the Richard Pryor film - The Toy - and towards the end of the movie, he actually yells "Duck, you sucker" to another character. I had just seen this film and learned about the title and how Leone thought it was a common phrase. I'm guessing purely coincidence, unless a screenwriter was doing it for their own enjoyment.
Thank you for this documentary, could you do my name is nobody next
Whew. I had vague memories of seeing a documentary about spaghetti westerns as a kid, and there were brief snippets from Duck You Sucker so it seemed like a lighthearted comedy. Then I sit down to watch it and it's like what the actual fuck?
Same
It’s one of my all time faves. And it does give me a few laughs💜
The exact same thing happened yo me on my first watch lol. I liked the first half because it was very similar to The Good,The Bad and The Ugly bit everything from the cave scene onwards had me shook. That's where I know that I just watched my favourite movie of all time
So do i. I mean the zapata era spaghetti westerns were always comedic as shit even if it had triump and badass moments (Il Mercenario as a example) and alot of them are just pure comedies on one side (being the revolutionaries). Then i watched this unaware of it's political themes... Good god, it was brutal the 2nd Juan's families were killed in that cave and that ending still haunts me down, even if both sides are good and awful, it's still war.
Fantastic ,well informed short documentary on this Classic . ( small point : Coburns “ Irish “ accent is way off , almost cartoonish . The Irish bar scenes were filmed in a well known bar in my hometown ‘Toners’ Baggot St, Dublin. Ireland . )
Thank you for posting ☘️
A truly amazing movie
I love this movie.. From Morocco 🇲🇦
The American title was the only change needed. “ Once Upon a Time in a Revolution”.
Hermosa película!
It's a terrific movie, and it's *really* hard to imagine what it would be like with Malcolm McDowell.
Much as I love sir Christopher Frayling's analyses in general I think it is wrong to call this film a western. It is about the 20th century and its horrors. with mass shootings massacres torture and betrayals
It still is a Western by virtue of its historical reference to the Mexican Revolution, even though a lot of the details are inaccurate. Not all Western tales are about white American cowboys.
Love the story, love the movie
Poor boys of all kill
Coburn's mock Irish accent grates on me.
Why is it so?
@@hamburgareable I don't know. Probably because I love Coburn's voice so much that for him to disguise it seems a shame. Maybe just me.
Rite fucking flick 🇮🇪👍
thanks i enjoyed it.
Sir Christopher Frayling is about as charismatic as the movie.
I thought Sir Frayling was Ivor Powell for a second. They look and sound very much alike.
For a split second, a couple of times during this, I thought he was talking about a Japanese movie named 'Dokusaka'. :)
And yet, the studio massacred the movie and cut it into pieces.
Would love to see all the Deleted scenes of this film. Also the 6 hour version of Once Upon a time in America would be great!!!
What is the music at 11:40 called?
Why does the pitch of his voice sound slightly odd?
Okay. Now that explains the flashbacks.
This may sound crazy, but the scene it which Juan and Sean shoot up that bridge the Nazis were crossing was my favorite part of the film. Not because so many Nazis get killed, but because it took two of them to take down thousands of Nazis.
In any event, violence is not pretty, not funny, and not anything to celebrate. It's just a sad memory.
Those were not nazis, they were mexican soldiers
@@Ruben901 Led by Jim Carrey.
@@Ruben901 True they where not Nazi but they were German Soldiers. Germany supported Carranza's Government.

..but the background IS the "real story"..
Great film but a real downer.
"What about me?" Wonderful ending.
The movie is plagued by historical innacuracies. If you look at the vehicles, the firearms, the events...
Who gives a fok
Why no oscars ?
The movie is great but i dont really understand the comparison to the earlier filmns as if they are all light hearted fun, complete nonsense, its insulting in fact. I would say the person we are hearing didnt understand the earlier movies, they went over his head.
Perhaps you're right. TGTBATU in particular was pretty heavy, but DYS was really, really dark, to me, anyway.
The Dollars Films are kinda lighthearted and cartoony compared to Duck you sucker and OUATIA.
It's always been a little mysterious to me why Leone chose American actors for his films: Coburn, Steiger, Eastwood, Wallach, van Cleef. Did he think American actor were super good, or what?
in the case of this movie Leone was forced by the studio to hire american actor Steiger, even tho he wanted Wallach.
I never heard any american ever pronuncing Leone's name right, it's not that big of a deal it's just that every time i click on a docu about his movies i tell myself . This one's no exception.
Maybe so, but he's English, not American.
If you are american its the same.
The only Leone film that disappointed me. Christopher Frayling makes me want to rewatch it but then seeing Rod Stieger over act turns me off again. Too bad Eastwood and Wallach didn't star in this film, that would make it epic!
I hate the first act. I Adore the rest...bravo!
Oh I'm sure the knighted brit has a solid understanding of left wing politics and revolution lmao
Dying a light Caucasian actor's hair black and having him play a Mexican is simply unconvincing. I don't know what he was thinking.
I really didnt care, as long as the character is not played by a shitty actor
Rod Steiger wasn't convincing, only because his accent was off. However, Eli Wallach was a very convincing Mexican.
@@huntstoddard9322 There is a difference. Wallach was Jewish, and looked as if he could be "Spaniard" Mexican, rather than Mestizo, which is what most people think when they think of Mexicans. Stieger looks Waspy and Germanic. His features look nothing like a Spaniard or Mexican at all,
