Hey, reverse George's list and you have mine. Imagine that!

1. Once Upon A Time In The West - A (I wasn't that taken with the film the first time I saw it, but watching it a couple of times after getting the DVD cemented it as my favorite Leone)
2. Once Upon A Time In America - A
3. For A Few Dollars More - A-
4. The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly - A- (I haven't seen the new DVD with the extra extended stuff, but I already found the film draggy, especially the civil war bits.)

Own: 1 (will buy whatever Leone box set eventually comes out assuming Columbia/Sony doesn't f it up)

It's been too long since I've seen Fistful. I tried renting it a few years ago from Netflix when I rented GBU and Few Dollars More but it got lost in the mail and then it was a "long wait" and I gave up after a while. Definitely want to see Duck You Sucker.

This one's easy, I've got only two and need to see more of his films.

Once Upon a Time in America - - hard ass but brilliant film that sprawls the ages
Once Upon a Time in the West - - hard ass and brilliant film that fucks the West.

Consider that the ranking as well. A slight edge to America for connecting to me despite the repulsiveness of Deniro's characters actions near the end.

Duck, You Sucker (aka A Fistful of Dynamite) is a mesmerizing film. It's my favorite western, vastly underrated.

Someday I'll get myself to reevaluate OUATITW. The fact that george doesn't like it makes me believe it's better than I initially thought.

Leone is pretty great. I own OUATITW, and I'll get the Man w/No Name trilogy when the anamorphic DVD set is finally released.
