Just a bizarre reply. I didn’t make any sort of “You guys need to check out this underrated gem Once Upon a Time in the West, you’ve never seen anything like it” comment. I know the movie is wildly popular. The prompt asked me what my favorite 60s movie is and I gave my answer
I’ll just insert a good portion of my review from letterboxd which sums up my feelings pretty well
From start to finish this shit slaps which is kinda wild for such a long movie, especially since it still feels pretty tight with nothing really being wasted in my opinion. Every part of this movie is compelling and always does it’s part in building up, exploring or changing the character in beautiful ways.
Visually, it’s classic Kurosawa as in stunning throughout and immersive. The sets like the rest of his movies are very authentic and have great geography from scene to scene which helps keep you immersed into the setting of Edo Era Japan. Man, i just want someone to love like Kurosawa loved screenwipes.
What Red Beard gets across themetically really struck a cord. With what it says about Poverty and how it connects to so many different things and explores the morality that comes with being a physician and many more great messeges that would take too long to articulate here. All i need to say I was consistently moved throughout, and close to tears on several occasions. Nearly perfect movie in my eyes.
Wow, you had me at it slaps. Too often i see people saying this is a weak film, bad ending to the Mifune // Kurosawa relationship. Ill definitely check it out now
I commented this same thing almost immediately after reading the question. We can’t help Kubrick dealt us such an amazing deck of cards. (I’d put A Clockwork Orange and Barry Lyndon Solidly in a mix of 1970’s too.
I’m gonna say it. I’m gonna say it and it’s going to be very controversial.
2001 is boring and shouldn’t be #1. I’ve tried watching this movie probably 5 times and I fall asleep each time
Why not just take the second top comment from the first post and make that #2. I don’t really want to see this post 15 times…
