Louise Fletcher even pops up in a scene in a graveyard!

Unfortunately,the spliced scenes are poor quality,which is a pity,because as far as my Italian goes,the card at the start reckons it has been given a 4k transfer.
(Stephen will translate that for me later.I thought 4K was a £4000 transfer!)

Admittedly,the film looks superb.
Probably my favourite film of all-time, I'll definitely have to track this down for a watch. De Niro and Woods were never better.

Bitter sweet and hauntingly beautiful in its own way. This is, without a doubt, Leone's masterwork IMO.
