Don't forget the background score!!

You capice!!!!

[@nickforrest5256]

I think this deserves a lot more than the Godfather in sheer quality and the soundtrack is unforgettable

[@erertertert44]

It goes so much deeper, I walk away with questions about life, why are we here? What matters in life? The godfather is great but doesn't evoque that same emotion to me

[@urmumismydad8466]

[@monisamontoya288]

When first released it was poorly cut from 6 hours to 4 hours to the preferred theatrical release of 3 hours and the critics panned it's lack of continuity and confusion . Release of the complete DVD gave it better meaning.

[@walkingligma6402]

@@monisamontoya288 what's the actual length of this movie and where can we watch it. I have seen the 3 hour 49 minute one.

[@jaycompany4886]

No it doesn't, this movie is a masterpiece and the musical score was the best, i saw this on the old tube in 2 or 3 parts, when i was 12 yrs old.

One of the absolutely best gangster movies of all time for several reasons. A great way for the director to end his career. A masterpiece.

The realism depicted in this film is jaw dropping. Music, story etc haunting.

Spot on

[@robbie192]

I agree... Goodfellas was known to make the mob more realistic and less Hollywood but Once Upon was 7 yrs earlier...

[@alvindimes4729]

Ash Mills - Totally agree, this movie and its soundtrack is (are) a masterpiece in cinema.

[@kendallevans4079]

"....I've ever SEEN...".....Come on, man!

[@erertertert44]

​@robbie192 I disagree this was a gangster film in the way good fellas or even the godfather were, the themes of regret, longing and emptiness were more important, the gangster part was just a vehicle to move the story. I came away from this film deep in thought about what life is and why we are here. With goodfellas I came away thinking it was an awesome film which showed crime doesn't pay.

[@lockerup100]

This film (full version) is addictive. I keep replaying segments and the captivating score. It has been described as a Masterpiece- I can only agree!

This, and Once Upon a Time in the West are two of my favs! Ennio Morricone’s compositions were the icing on the cake❤️

[@ttom2460]

Just watched this for the first time. I thought it would be a difficult one to watch through due to 3 hours 49 min runtime, but I kept me so engaged and I just didn’t want it to stop. This is by far one is one of the best movies in the genre. Visuals, soundtrack, acting…top notch! The scene with manhattan bridge is so iconic.

[@Jotkah26]

The best movie of all times. Best actors. Best music. B

I would never forget this masterpeice

[@k-asp3r754]

Leone said that this movie should been called "once upon a time the cinema"cause he wanted to celebrate the begginin of that but that are also a lot of reminds to 1900 french and american paintings.really visual masterpiece.

[@FAMA-18]

There will never be another Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone again, just like Bruce Lee never again.

1:12 Tra Sergio 3:41 Leone e Morricone non si puo' avere nulla di piu' stupendo❤ al mondo❤❤❤❤ ad un certo punto Sergio Leone decise di far recitare gli attori con il sottofondo musicale di Morricone.....STUPENDO.!!!!!!! Grazie❤❤❤❤

[@daniel.agoston]

the Greatest Movie I've ever seen.

[@Gurci28]

Sergio Leone's final film is the epic tale of the life of a Jewish gangster in New York. 1:02

[@Gurci28]

Once Upon a Time in America is a tremendous work that captures the animating ambition and sorrow at the heart of the American Dream. [Rotten Tomatoes]

[@Gurci28]

An incredible film, very emotional coming with an astonishing acting especially from De Niro. 2:01

[@Gurci28]

Taking place in 1920 to 1960 America the film follows a group Jewish gangsters from childhood into their glory years of the prohibition and as they reunite in their later years. [Golden Globes]

Sergio + ennio morriconne= great great outstanding work

[@TheGlasgowGamer]

What a lot of critics of this film don’t seem to get is that this is a beautiful and poetic film about bad people, and the choices they make that put them in a hollow position in life. It is about what happens when that so called American dream is both not so great after all, and the kind of regrets someone from that life who didn’t even make it lives with for the rest of their life.

[@aitortilla6473]

A total masterpiece.

[@AppleByte97]

Easily one of the best films I’ve seen. The score and visuals just stay with you. That brief shot with the group walking by the Brooklyn Bridge as the backdrop brings tears to my eyes

[@matteocecino]

My friend, there are so many versions of this film. Leone had made about 10 hours of footage. His first idea was to cut it down to six hours and split it in two 3 hours long-movies, but unfortunately the producers didn't accept this proposal. The standard version now is 3 hours and 49 minutes long, but there are still so many scenes left. That scene is present in the 4 hours version

[@geoleo2597]

Maestro Morricone can make a cinema 🎥 more grandiose and epic. His music told a story of its own

Beautiful film, from the visual, audio, and storytelling. It's a contrast from all movies I have ever watched.

[@poulha]

Leone was one of the masters of 20th century filmmaking. I made my tribute to him by visiting his early domain in Viale Glorioso, Rome, Italy. There is a plaque on the wall. The locals are not too much into it, so be shy about it…

[@ft9303]

The biggest travesty in this film is that Leone actually made a six-hour cut as HIS director's cut but which he wanted to release in two parts however this version was the only one that was found and the six- hour cut is considered to be lost forever

[@JakesJoy31]
