( fr ) Sergio Leone was an Italian film director who is considered by many to be on the short list of the greatest film directors of all time. Sergio Leone is well-known for his Spaghetti Western films, and his recognizable style of juxtaposing extreme close-up shots with extreme long shots, as in the opening scene of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966).

Something to do with creativity
The real story started three-and-a-half years ago when Something To Do With Death was first visualized. The words “cooperation,” “collaboration” and “organic” spill from the lips of director Eric Rose. This is not a dictatorship; it’s a democracy and everyone has a say about shaping the final product. Communication, says Rose, is essential to avoid a clash of egos in an atmosphere whereby the director typically barks orders at the actors. As he sits in t [Read more]

DVD review: The Good, The Bad, The Weird
Rob Mackie guardian.co.uk, Friday 12 June 2009 13.03 BST Korea consistently comes up with arresting Asian cinema, and almost all of what we get to see takes on a different genre. This is, to my knowledge, the first Asian western, and as the title suggests, it takes its cue from Sergio Leone's spaghetti westerns. So effectively, it's an Asian take on an Italian variant of a US staple genre: now that's world cinema. The Good, The Bad, The Weird (Joh-un Nom, Nappun Nom, Isanghan Nom) Rel [Read more]

SIFF Review: Once Upon a Time in the West
After transforming the old west into the cool, cruel mercenary world of the Clint Eastwood Dollar films and defining the style and attitude of the spaghetti western, Sergio Leone made this honest to God American western epic. Once Upon a Time in the West was shot (like his Eastwood films) largely in Spain but he managed to get stateside for stunning footage set in the wonderland of John Ford's mythic landscape: Monument Valley. Into this dream American west, Leone drops Charles Bronson as his sl [Read more]
