Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod
Italowestern - I/USA 1968 - 165
"Im US-Western sterben die Helden hässlich im Hintergrund. Bei mir sterben sie im Vordergrund unheimlich schön." So erklärte Sergio Leone seine Vorstellung von Cowboy-Kino. "Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod" ist der barocke Höhepunkt im Schaffen vom Erfinder des Italowestern. Am Anfang stehen die blauen Augen von Henry Fonda, am Ende geht einem die Melodie von Ennio Morricone nicht mehr aus dem Kopf.
