Film People Project

Film People Project is a photographic archive of people and the films that shaped their lives

Once Upon a Time in the West is the film thanks to which I’m here today talking to you about cinema. One evening, many years ago, I had nothing to do and I picked up this DVD my father had bought, because he had seen the film in the cinema back in the 1960s. I watched it and I was expecting something completely different. I felt disoriented, because it wasn’t a typical western, the music was incredible, it was bitter and also very violent. And in that feeling of disorientation I realized that a new chapter of my life was opening”

C’era una Volta il West è il film grazie al quale oggi sono qui con te a parlare di cinema. Una sera di molti anni fa non avevo niente da fare e ho preso questo dvd che aveva acquistato mio padre, perché aveva visto il film al cinema negli anni 60. L’ho visto e mi aspettavo tutt’altro: mi sono sentito spaesato, perché non era un tipico western, c’era una musica incredibile, era amaro e anche molto violento, e in quel mio essere stranito in realtà ho capito che si stava aprendo una nuova pagina della mia vita”
