Nostalgia is a seductive liar - George Wildman Ball
Sergio Leone, Eli Wallach, & Clint Eastwood on the set of The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly (1966, dir. Sergio Leone) (via Once Upon a Time in Italy: The Westerns of Sergio Leone)
“I am bringing back the action Western. The cowboy picture has got  lost in psychology. There have been too many attempts to explain the  motives of both the heroes and the bad men and to make them  understandable and acceptable in modern terms. The West was made by  violent, uncomplicated men and it is this strength and simplicity that I  try to recapture in my pictures.”
-Sergio Leone
