Download Free Fistful Of Dollars, A

A lone stranger rides into a small western town to find the town split down
the middle by two criminal gangs. He set out to make himself rich by playing
both sides for money and making each pick the other off.

I'm a western fan but the majority of the ones I'd seen growing up had been
of the John Ford school of Western making rather than Leoni. Happily I have
been turning this trend round since my teenage years and this was part of
this process. Having seen many spaghetti westerns by this point I knew the
basic formula and it was wheeled out here again to good effect. The plot is
yet another remake of Yjombio but that doesn't mean it is bad. Instead it
has more comedy and more of a comic book feel to it that
works.

The original's plot is reworked and holds the attention while the Western
action and shoot outs will keep genre fans happy. Occasionally it is all a
bit cheesy but at the time this was Leoni's first spaghetti with Eastwood.
But the close-ups of eyes, the whistling music etc may feel old to some - to
me it felt comfortable to be somewhere that I am familiar
with!

Eastwood carries the whole film with a iconic cool that basically made him a
star back then. From one of the earliest scenes where he comically demands
an apology for his mule to the obligatory final showdown he is a good lead.
View aspects of his character are brought out but that isn't the point of
the film. The rest of the cast display another aspect of the films - bad
dubbing but it didn't bother me because I embrace it as part of the
genre!

Overall this is a typical example of a spaghetti western. The plot holds up
well with the update to Western times and the film is carried effortlessly
on the broad shoulders of it's tough and cool leading man..

Legends from the yester years remain unbeatable with their performance still holding current in style unmatched..

good clasiker with clint eastwood.

The Good, The Bad and the Ugly: Super-hit movie casting, Clint Eastwood as "The Good", Lee Von Cleef as "The Bad"and Eli Walleh as "The Ugly". Ran to packed hoses for more than 100 days in India! For A Few Dollars More: Starring Clint Eastwood and Lee Von Cleef, this is another super-hit movie from the invincible pair Clint and Lee. Excellent work! keyebee.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MOOOOOOOOOVIE.

A classic innovative film that changed the face of the Western.Sergio
Leone's 1964 film made Clint Eastwood an international star.This new
genre of Western was called "the spaghetti western", a term that I
personally don't like. It seems to imply a negative meaning as though a
Western directed by a foreigner is inferior to American made films.
Most American westerns depicted a glamorous, sanitized view of life
filmed on elaborate stages. Leone's Fistful explodes that myth with a
hard edged view filmed on location. The film shows a dirty,dusty and
brutal world ruled by the gun.I believe this was how the West really
was and not the contrived Hollywood version.Leone introduces a unique
style of filming with his facial closeups and sharp angle shots,
particularly from the ground level looking up.Ennio Morricone's musical
collaboration perfectly captures Leone's vision.Morricone adds to the
film what proved to be staples of Leone's later films that others of
the genre would imitate. Such as the haunting singing chorus,blaring
trumpets,stringing guitars and harmonic whistling.Fistful reveals in
Eastwood's character a flawed individual instead of the noble hero
found in most Westerns during that time.He was the anti-hero who lived
by his own moral code and blew away any who stood in his way.This film
was the first of what would be a trilogy based on Eastwood's role as
"the man with no name".Hard to believe that this role was first offered
to Steve(Hercules)Reeves who turned it down.After seeing Eastwood
performance in Fistful, I can't imagine anyone else playing the part.A
great film, but I believe Leone's sequels, "For a Few Dollars More" and
"The Good,The Bad and The Ugly" are better films..
