I would also prefer LVC keep his shirt on as well. DRAH was only a few minutes but Beyond The Law was too much. It was like George ‘The Animal’ Steel in a sw!
Keoma is not the first SW i ever saw, but the movie made me a fan of the genre when i saw if back in 2006. Eversens then i have been colecting and watching SW dvd’s. To this point i’v think i seen around 44 or 45 spaghetti western movies. It was the first SW i my dvd collection and has sens then been one of my bigest favorits. It has this “moody darkness” that i so long wanted to see in a western before i discoverd the Italian ones, and it has a great story with a great soundtrack and nasty shoothings. It also made me a fan of Castreralli as a director.

Imagine if they had a flashback scene in GBU? I’d like to see a cigar chomping kid in a serape.

OK, this is off topic for Keoma, but I had to say it:
Blondie in GBU is already younger than serape-wearing Blondie in Fistful of Dollars or For A Few Dollars More. GBU was made last, but chronologically, it is the first in the series.
To prove my point:
GBU - Civil War Setting, including 1851 and 1860 revolvers.
FOD and FOAFDM - 1870s or later setting, Colt 1873 Peacemakers, Winchesters, etc.
In GBU, Blondie wears a duster and a broad brimmed light colored hat through most of the film. He did not yet own the serape and brown hat and other clothes. He gets his brown hat and vest and other Man With No Name clothes from Angel Eyes, and he gets his serape from the dying soldier. In GBU, we see how The Man With No Name started out. I would think that it is obviously chronologically first!

Clint from GBU and Clint from FFD and FFDM are arguably different characters.
This way of ordering the flicks by the use of the guns is complete nonsense to me.
Leone was not interested in a historically correct use of firearms in his movies. Just remember Tuco assembling a guns out of several models. Other examples:
Just watched Keoma yesterday - I have to say for the first time, shame on me
I really enjoyed this SW, especially the symbolism of life and death (especially at the end), the camera work with slow motions reminding me on Peckinpah, a story without any elements of comedy and I also liked the soundtrack, which really doesn´t fit everytime, but most of it. I would say 8,0 out of 10.
I must say this is one of my all time SW favorites. I hope as much people as possible watch this, one of the great last spaghetti-western made. Such strong vision, directing and acting from Nero.
