some years ago I got the french film poster of "Il etait und fois dans
l'ouest"
in a red frame on a flee market ....., Film posters are quite hard to get
here.
Coooool. Sounds good.
The DVD must be great, are there any Extras or cutted scenes of the film on
it?
I haven't watched it yet, but the film has been digitally re-mastered and enhanced for 16:9 widescreen with hidden commentary tracks by various bods like John Carpenter, John Milius and sundry film historians but quite why I would want to listen to them droning on while watching a classic I do not know! It also has another DVD with it a few of documentaries and trailers and stills etc - will have a look through later.
lovely Claudia Cardinale ;-)
With you there one hundred percent.
I'm also a fan of John Ford and have The Searchers on DVD - it ties with Once Upon A Time In The West for my all time favourite western. To give you a bizarre taster into my favourite films - here's a short selection on my shelf (in no particular order):
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Blade Runner Doctor Strangelove The Abyss Amelie The Fifth Element Gladiator Apocolypse Now The Andromeda Strain Fantastic Voyage Rear Window
...
You are a very strange man...
Cheers, Cotty

I can understand why mankind hasn't given up war. During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime.
