Summary

When you hear the harmonica, you know it's time for another Junkfood Cinema! And boy howdy, are y'all in for a treat!

This week, Brian & Cargill fulfill a Patron request and discuss one of the greatest westerns of all time: Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West. The guys discuss the score, Leone's use of stillness in one of cinema's greatest opening sequences, and the Terminator 2 moment of revealing Henry Fonda as a villain. Also discussed is Wild Wild West, shooting through your boots, and lots and LOTS of Charlie Bronson impressions.

Download, listen, and share, you outlaws!
