18 Duck, you Sucker!
19 And God Said to Cain
20 God Forgives…I Don’t
I can’t help to put “Kill them all” in the list, it was soooo entertaining. And i don’t know if The Mercenary or Duck your Sucker was better. I think from a “technical point of view”, Duck your Sucker was better. But i don’t want to get rid of anyone of them, so this is my final contribution.
Once Upon a Time in the West
10.Death Rides a Horse
11.Big gundown
12.Day of Anger
13.Keoma
14.Mannaja
15.A Bullet for the General
16.Sabata
17.Face to face
18.Shoot the living pray for the dead
19.Companeros
20.If you meet sartana pray for your death
This web site has no prejudices against Zapatas, and distances itself from any anti-Zapata resentments. Also no Zapatas were ever harmed in the making of this web site.
For now, Stanton, that is my list. In my previous lists, I always stayed away from Leone because he was always so far ahead of everybody else. But GBU has always been my favorite. I always considered Blindman to be the most enjoyable to my most base instincts. Films like CWC, Tepepa, GS, and such are all good films but not as satisfying to those lower more primal instincts. Though a great many films in my new list aren’t as action packed, they’re all heavily stylish and I’ve always liked Style over content on low budget cinema like this.
I just had a look at my list. Man. It is really hard to make them lists, innit? I think the Spaghetti taste is an ever changing thing. It pretty much depents upon your latest experiences, good old memories, the desire of being different…
I think a reconsideration of my top20 is imminent…
So, genarally I realized that GS is no more my top one. I rewatched it and it was more boring than I remembered. Kill and Pray and Cemetery were dropped for Blindman and Companeros mostly for their better abiltiy to entertain.
My sectret darlings Vendo and the Outlaws are still there.
Hope it wasn’t this reason, which is at least a reason, but not a really good one for our great aim (even if I forgot for what we have aimed at, but it must have been something noble).
