Once Upon a Time in the West (C'era una volta il West)
Re-release of Sergio Leone's popular 1969 spaghetti western. When her husband and three children are killed by marauding bandits, Jill McBain (Claudia Cardinale) inherits a strip of land needed by a local railroad company who will stop at nothing to get their hands on it. Afraid for her life, Jill is protected from harm by two desperadoes (Charles Bronson, Jason Robards), both of whom hope to be more than just good friends with the lovely widow. As the gun battles ensue, the men's pasts come back to haunt them and their loyalties to the young woman are put to the test. Epic both in scope and style, Once Upon A Time In The West is a sleek morality tale set against a fractious period in American history, when the progress of the railroad network took precedence over the welfare of those whose homes happened to stand in the way of progress.
