I recently directed a short film which was heavily influenced by Sergio Leone’s spaghetti westerns. It’s called Invisible Bullets[/url] and can be viewed here:
In a visual sense, a lot of the ideas in Invisible Bullets were inspired by A Fistful of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More, whilst The Good, The Bad and The Ugly provided us with a starting point for the music.
Let me know what you think of the film, and if you’ve got a minute please vote!
[quote=“Dillinger, post:2, topic:2448”]I liked the showdown with the garden gnome, especially the close up of his eyes.
I would have liked more western and less arcade sounds to make it a bit more straightforward.[/quote]
The intention was always to make a modern-day western of sorts, hence the arcade sounds. It does seem to have divided people, but on the whole I think a majority appreciate the ‘electronic Morricone’!
I like it, every generation presents a new angle to look at the great man and his movies
There are a few other film makers active here, such as Hungry Bear and Bad Lieutenant, check out there things
By the way, the actor (you?) has the right face for a spaghetti western, a little like the actor Hungry bear used in one of his shorts (the one filmed in the Ardennes)
