Henry Fonda who played the villain in this and who you last saw in 12 Angry Men is Hollywood royalty. One of most iconic actors of the golden age of Hollywood. Henry Fonda was known for his humane, benevolent, and compassionate roles. As you saw him play in 12 Angry Men. Fonda playing the villain in this film was a first for him and a very radical departure from anything he had ever done before. This was not only brand new territory for Henry Fonda the actor but also a shock for the movie going audience, who only knew Fonda in the humane, good guy roles. This was intentional subversive casting on the part of director Sergio Leone. You want to see a classic, iconic role Henry Fonda is forever remembered for. “The Grapes of Wrath” (1940) Based on the classic American novel. Adapted into a classic film starring Henry Fonda and directed by the great John Ford! The man who directed John Wayne in so many of his classic westerns. Strong recommend for this one.

Mr. B, with all due respect, maybe GoW might be a bit too confusing to a modern-day daughter of Scotland. Now, if I can be so bold, my suggestion would be "My Name is Nobody", it might be a bit more to her liking......Just sayin'.......😔

There's no reason she shouldn't watch The Grapes of Wrath.

james flack

Bill, the great depression, mass unemployment, union busting, not to mention week-long dust storms, all taking place in what was supposed to be the richest country in the world. I just thought it would cause her to be constantly asking a lot of questions, so much so, that she could not enjoy the film nor appreciate Tom Joad's profound recitation at the end. -James............EDITED: I stand corrected, after further consideration (with a little help from my friends), I have decided to rescind my doubts about Dawn enjoying this film.......Mea culpa to everyone. 😔

Well, those are alot of spoilers, brother James. Perhaps for Grapes of Wrath, Dawn could watch Ken Burns' "The Dust Bowl" mini-series BEFORE the movie. I think it's only 3 or 4 episodes, not as imposing as The Civil War.

Bill W
>>141759861

Why change your comment? I'm sure Dawn has heard of the Great Depression. As far as agricultural blight, extreme poverty, wealthy people in control, keeping the poor poor, mass migration... if she needs a relatable example, that all happened famously on a neighboring island. If she has questions about labor unions or anything else, we can answer them as always.

Bartleby

Dawn Marie. The beautiful widow was not the mother of those children. The son said “Mom died 6 years ago” That was literal. Their mother died 6 years ago. The widower father met the beautiful woman at whorehouse in New Orleans. He fell in love with her and married her to take her out of that whore life. But what happens when she arrives. That’s what was going on. Just wanted to clarify that.

Also, Harmonica's name is NOT Dave Jenkins. That was just one of the list of dead men that Frank had killed in the past. Harmonica was using those dead men's names to goad Frank. We never learn Harmonica's given name. He is truly The Man with No Name. (I've always thought that Eastwood's so-called "Man with No Name" persona in the Dollars Trilogy were actually three different men, each with his own individual name. They were just costumed the same, and he played them the same. I'm sure many of you will disagree, but that's how I see it. Bronson's "Harmonica" persona is the real man with no name.)

Devon

Gotta watch McCabe & Mrs. Miller and Thd Wild Bunch at some point. Some incredible anti-westerns

Brandon Williams
>>141770289

"The Man with No Name" was an American marketing slogan, not something Sergio Leone or the writers came up with. Though the monikers the Eastwood characters use are not their names, either.

Brandon Williams

That was awesome. Nice to see the full reaction, too, because of those long shots of Monument Valley that might get chopped out of an edit (understandably so) are an absolute pleasure to watch each time. The idea was to have the three guys at the beginning be Clint, Lee Van Cleef and Eli Wallach, out of symbolism. Definitely one of the greatest westerns of all time - personally, it's a top 3 movie regardless of genre.

Alan Jones

[!!! SPOILERS !!! SEE THE FILM BEFORE YOU READ THIS.] There seemed to be some confusion over whose gunmen were whose. Frank had a following of gunmen who worked for him, until Morton bought them away at the poker game. Cheyenne had another following of gunmen who remained loyal to him. It was three of Frank's men waiting for Harmonica at the very beginning. It was Frank and some of his men who emerged out of the brush at the Sweetwater Farm after perpetrating the massacre there. Cheyenne's men showed up at the roadside tavern after Cheyenne had fought his way free of his prison escort. Two of Frank's men tried to attack Jill just after Harmonica had ripped the white fringes off her black dress. (I think that was the point of his rough handling of her; no attempted assault, just insisting that she enter full mourning.) When they were at the well and he talked about hearing a strange sound, it was Frank's men he gunned down. But Cheyenne and a few of his men were nearby watching. It was Frank's men, bought off by Morton, who turned on him and tried to gun him down in town just after the auction. Two of Cheyenne's men got on the train that was supposed to carry Cheyenne to Yuma, to help Cheyenne escape from custody. Once free, Cheyenne apparently took all his men and attacked Morton's train. We see the aftermath of that battle later, but not the battle itself. When Frank returned to the train to find everyone dead (or dying), those were a mix of his own men (i.e., Morton's men now) and Cheyenne's men who had fought that final pitched battle before Frank got there. It was during this gun battle that Morton ("Mr. Choo-Choo") managed to shoot Cheyenne in the gut, though it took him some hours for Cheyenne to die of this mortal wound. Morton himself was wounded in the battle, though he had enough energy left to seek out the little trickle of water that reminded him of the ocean that he would never see. When Frank saw him crawling across the ground, he realized Morton was dying, so he didn't bother to finish him off. That's why he put his gun away without firing.

James, we're all a bunch of little Fonzie's here- everything's cool! 😄 It ain't like ya kicked a dog or somethin'!

Louis Marzullo

Viva Leone! Viva Italia! Viva Spaghetti (Westerns)! 😂 🇮🇹

Scorpius

This is the ultimate Western. So I guess you can say you got it right this time this is the best! Henry Fonda Charles Bronson, epic stardust. Unfortunately Eastwood turned down the invitation to play in this spaghetti Western. There is one movie that seems to be missing from your collection and that is,. My name is Nobody. Starring Henry Fonda. If you ever get a chance check it out. It is top shelf with the rest of them . Thank you all these movies have been fun to recapture.

Excellent comment,I have read grapes of wrath,and of course seen the movie, {hugely important work} ...i am hanging on with my support for this channel... hoping as a fellow Scot that Dawn Marie can be more tha just another (so what reactor} ...reactors seem to miss so much!...a quick buck can be just as easily given to a homeless person!...

rude alf mcglesga
>>141749545

And in case you fun lover's don't know it (or don't want to), yes, it's all going to come crashing around you...pretty soon!....(but what do I know)....(...........)...plenty!

I think people will enjoy movie reactors as long as Hollywood refuses to accept reality and make films the public actually wants to see. As long as Hollywood doubles and triples down on crap, movie reactors watching classics from yesteryear when great films were being made will have an audience.

Louis Marzullo
>>141749545

And as long as there's no shortage of "Eleanor Rigbys" & "Father McKenzies" in the world 🙂

Louis Marzullo
>>141749545

Ah, that's good! Something new for you. "Eleanor Rigby" is a Beatles' song on their "Revolver" album. It is perhaps their most compact masterpiece. Enjoy!

Bill W

Love that hoodie! By the way... the Watervliet baseball team just won the State Championship last week! Good timing. 😀 Go Panthers!

To Louis and Bill...Ken loach's (spirit of 45)...you will see what life was like for the working class in the wonderful UK,...absolutey appalling...and no Scot worth their salt should ever forget it!...........ps Ken loach is a hero,...hated by the establishment.

Louis Marzullo
>>141749545

Oh sure, Alf. Just an addendum to Bartleby's observations about why people watch movie reactors like our beloved Dawn Marie. Many reasons, of course, but another in addition to those he noted is that one can become part of a community that helps take the edge off one's isolation/loneliness, if that happens to be one's circumstances, as it was for dear Eleanor & Fr. McKenzie.

QUIGLEY DOWN UNDER is a GREAT western set in Australia! ❤️

John DiGiantomasso

Glad you enjoyed this; fun to share it with you! I would also recommend Quigley Down Under, Hang 'em High, and The War Wagon.
