Jill McBane, you whore! (Once Upon a Time in the West)

Not done with the movie yet, but I was totally on board with Jill McBane as a heroine until she started slutting it up with Frank. This better come to a point because otherwise this movie just killed it's own protagonist.

Fantastic movie though, thus far.

Let me get this straight - you are complaining about a beautiful woman "slutting it up"?!

I'm all for beautiful women having sex - I encourage it, but I've been made to love Jill as much as I was made to hate Frank. So the two of them rolling around together makes me feel like I was cheated on.

My heart aches!

Shit man that's deep.  Maybe you should send her an abstinence ring?

I don't have time for hockey, I have a love letter to Claudia Cardinale to write.

I havent seen the film, but why are you suggesting that Jill McBane is using heroin in the film?    laugh1    I think she would be VERY insulted, and will refuse any letter or chastity ring you attempt to send her.

On the other hand, if you were referring to her as a HEROINE, that's a different matter altogether.

To be continued........

Give me a break, I was using a mobile device. I kept having "slutting" auto-corrected to "slitting" too. I obviously know the difference between heroin and heroine and herons and harrowing heroine herons doing heroin.

Elementary school stuff. I think there's a nursery rhyme about it.

farq, just watch the movie, and be engrossed in its absolute beauty/ugly/fantastico.
If certain elements cause distress, then more power to it.  Great film. I can LISTEN to it. I could watch it with no sound. With both I am in heaven.

Every other word was spelled correctly, using your mobile device... there is no shame in misspelling a new word that sound the same as another.

No need to get testy = (upset).   whip   ;)

Now as Ari suggested.. go and enjoy that movie!

I'll have you both know I finished the movie yesterday and enjoyed it for the masterpiece it was. A little research shows that Jill McBane's dramatic character flip was an intentional device written in the script by Leone, and a similar change can be found in Cheyenne. Leone wanted to build his characters up to a point and then quickly reinvent them - almost a fake out. Slightly unconventional, but the impact on the viewer was immense. It's not common I am overcome with malice just by the sight of a character - that's effective movie making.

This movie also demonstrates how heavily Leone's westerns had matured from when he was remaking Yojimbo in A Fistful of Dollars. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly and Once Upon A Time in the West were, expectedly, triumphs of film.

But my heart still aches for Jill McBane. I don't know why I expected a strong female lead in a Western. That's my own fault more than anything.

Paste is best used to adhere 1970's paneling to walls. Although certain brands are non toxic, so i wont hurt.

You can. 1970's paneling was often nibbled on by naturists such as Euell Gibbons. It did him no worse for wear and kept him quite regular.  8)
