- This video essay will analyse the music and sound design of the duel sequence from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and the final sequence from "Django Unchained".
Video essay produced for the Narrative Construction unit, MA Sound Design, Bournemouth University, 2016-17.
Tarantino = mafia-style.
Leone = eternal epics.
I agree... totally!!!
Tarantino is more of a emulator, borrower, even thief, than creator and even he would probably agree.
Sergio Leone did a gangster movie Once Upon A Time In America.Too bad the studio messed it up.I think it surpasses his westerns which I love.Q.T is a homage film director.
@@evanmarmer8576 QT is a thief and explained it away cleverly as homage.
Leone said his films are silent films. The dialog is just there for some weight, quite the opposite from Tarantino where the dialog is the main catch of the movie
I do love Tarantino, but The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is on another level. It's a near perfect film where the acting, plot, set design, composition, and score all integrate with sublime purpose. Tarantino says it's his favorite movie, so I can see why it begs the comparison, but he just doesn't quite hit the bullseye.
You can’t beat the style and feel of the original Italian Westerns, so cool, the GBU, original 1966 Django, Day of anger, Cemetery without Crosses, No Room to Die, Death rides a horse, the Great Silence !!!!
cultspaghetti Trashmovie very true the Western genre will never be the same
Where can i watch the great silence ,free? I have already downloaded one but the quality is so poor
You missed for a few dollars more and a fistful of dollars
@@calogerogriffin861 It's on youtube rn with english captions, avoid the comments for spoilers.
@@frankuraku5622 thanks man💪🏾🙏🏽, actually 😅 I already find the movie on the internet back then (the quality is not hd tho) but it doesn't have english subtitle, so I made the subtitle by myself🤣
You can't compare the two movies with each other. Sergio Leone is on a whole different level. He is the master and Tarantino is his scholar.
Tarantino Is a nerd compared to Leone
so true
Kurosawa is the master. Leone is his talented student, and Tarantino his!
No, Leone perfected cinematography in combination with music. He is without a doubt the best at his craft. @@massi6528
People have been analyzing Leone's Spaghetti a lot recently. I wonder whats up, are people in general as fed up with the shitty films we're getting as I am and returning to the older masterpieces?
Maybe we can see the same thing from another perspective. Recently this thing of 'reviewing' (films, games, music, etc.) is getting more popular, so good movies are the best subjects as there's a lot to talk about. In my opinion, people are not really fed up with movies now, but when it comes the moment to analyse, a good movie is the natural choice.
khatack
For a Few Dollars More is a perfect film. It's airtight but loose which a beautiful paradox. The ending with Ennio cues is the benchmark of movie storytelling. That movie makes you run the gammut of emotions from laughter to horror to tears and finally a triumphant hurrah! It's grand cinema but feels personal like a joke amongst friends.
Great video. Excellente!
@@IvanSpirit7 Did we watch the same movie? The Good the Bad and the Ugly is a film about 3 guys looking for treasure. Where'd all this shit about the human experience come from, because it sure as hell wasn't in the movie?
So am I, sir!
Daniel Wilson 😂
No one will ever top Sergio Leone.....God, I miss Spaghetti westerns.....
The good the bad and the ugly is the #1 best out of all these movies
so true Italy has a style like no one else
I don't think that we can compare Sergio Leone's style with Quentin Tarantino's different generation; different world; different audience..What is for sure is that QT kinda admires Sergio Leone and adopted somethings of Sergio Leone's style...
Leone is better. I also, think even though the camera quality isn’t as good, it works better with westerns as it gives the film a constant sandy gritty look to it so it suites the landscape and characters of the westerns better than the sharp enhanced cameras of today’s westerns.
The camera on Leone's films is the fucking best, it puts you into that post Civil War america. Django Unchained looks so fake.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 Brilhante. Concordo com você Luís. Leone sabia genialmente como compensar as deficiências das câmeras da época, trabalhando de forma magistral a fotografia e a iluminação.
As much as i liked this i dont find Leones and Tarantinos work that similar. If anything id say Tarantino magpies from all over the show. With Django it feels like hes tipping his hat more to Sergio Corbucci.
he got the title from sergio corbucci for sure
your so smart , so true
Gianluca, this video looks like your PhD theses abridged. Some viewers do not necessarily agree with your conclusions; but this does not reduce the value of your work, rather puts it at the aforesaid level, where one's work opens healthy debates. Well done!
The Music of The Good The Bad and The Ugly is probably the best film score ever.
in fact when the movie begins, first thing you hear is a real coyote singing the amazing theme you just heard.
music of the good tb& tu is 1000000 times better than Django's music.
All Morricone's are good...but the best? Nope sorry best of all is Once Upon A Time In The West
The rap on Django Unchained got me out of the picture, much prefer the original Sergio Corbucci's Django.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 Bro same!!!! I fk hated that they put rap on a western!!! If you wanna put black people’s music, why not put some blues?? That would fit a lot better. I couldn’t take that movie seriously.
@@Johnnysmithy24 blues? In 1850s?
@@iono5556 Yes I know, but what I’m saying is it would fit a hell of a lot more than rap. Specially something like Robert Johnson. Rap just sounds too modern and computerized for a western
The Good the bad and the ugly is such an amazing movie, perhaps the best movie of all time. Django Unchained was good but not up there amongst the best.
G.B. and ugly is Tarantino most favorite film.
Django was one of my least favourite QT films. He has comfortably at least 3 films that are better, so I agree Django isn’t amongst the best.
Still a cool homage to the genre though.
Yeah I literally just wrote a comment about that. I can’t believe he’s comparing them. Brits..
Agree, I really wish Tarantino made a better western. I would love to see him make a western that’s similar to Inglorius Basterds.
Sergio Leone's western movies are still out of reach. I think the reason is that Leone was a real great visionary artist who used a very modern language. Today there are no movie directors who are able to see so ahead in the future, they can't even make the movie the way they want with few exceptions (Tarantino is one of them).
Money and tight money driven production schedules with a changing blockbuster model ruined it, people tend to forget it is the industry after all.
Fantastic work here, sir! I tip my hat to you!
Tarantino was obsessed with spaghetti westerns in his childhood and I'm glad he was so we can still get the taste of the spaghetti western genre.
Can't compare to the Good the Bad and the Ugly
Sorry guys but leone is best !
Music tells a story by itself, it is really important to give to Leone's movies a frame
Congratulations, I really enjoyed your video. You're spitting facts. That's exactly the way I see it too.
my brother looked like Clint six foot 2 and blonde slim with muscles and same attitude
Clint was 6'4".
Very good insight!
This is fucking brilliant man
You deserve more subscribers! You will surely Grow!
really good video
Very well done!
Leone movies had guys that looked like genuine grizzled cowboys, movies today are too clinical and everyone is photoshop perfection
Wow great video man! I wish this had more views 😔
great video!
Very well done 👏 👏👏
Thank you for this introspective. I don't ever want to stop learning from these amazing films and your insights are welcome. Cheers!
I’m so late on this but what a well done video
Ive been wondering if someone has made a comparison and here we are :)
Guys why can we love both films and the video instead of picking one or the other?
Torchlight Cinema we can't like both bcuz one is art in motion the other is just acting in motion. One is creative the other is plain old script acting.
So we can’t like both? I don’t like django but that doesn’t mean you absolutely can’t like both.
Because Tarantino is a wannabe who has stole all his movies from older ones and people are too stupid to see that.
If you liked Django Unchained then your lack of taste in films is apparent.
Because, people are stupid!
Good stuff
what is the music you used throughout this whole video ?
Day Of Anger - Riz Ortolani
Un Monumento - Ennio Morricone
Extasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone
Djanlgo - Luis Bacalov

Great info
Leone was better.
For sure
_Miles_ better. Leone made artistic masterpieces with substance and a soul whereas Tarantino makes low-brow entertainment for dunces.
Tarantino would agree
@@Dagger_323 I’ve never seen someone insecure about their film taste 😂
@@WeBothAreMonkeys having strong opinions is actually the opposite of insecure. Try again.
Spagetti western very very good.
Usa western the bad.
soundtrack name at 0:37 ?
Is the soundtrack of I giorni dell'ira, Day of Anger in english, a very good movie
Everytime i hear spaghetti western i always remember ennio moriconne saying that term is disrespectful and racist
Everything is racist these days.
Bro that's racist
Wait. Me saying that is racist
Liberal crybabies
Great analysis! I will watch western movies with different eyes as pieces of art they are from now on.
I dont know why the gbu gets the ONLY praises when For a few dollars more, day of anger is much better
Akira Kurosawa
Leone was original.
you need more subscribers.....
Great video, i like it.
But I think the spaghetti westerns are better.
Eνα μικρο σε διαρκεια 16 λεπτων,ενδιαφερον αφιερωμα σχετικα με το ποιο απο τους 2 σκηνοθετες,τον Σερτζιο Λεονε και τον Κουεντιν Ταραντινο σκηνοθετει καλυτερα και με ποιον τροπο γινεται η συγκριση.Ενα παργμα εχω να πω:Οσο καλα και να σκηνοθετει ο Κουεντιν Ταραντινο,τον Σερτζιο Λεονε δεν το φτανει με τιποτα...
angel eyes has a cap and ball revolver and cartridges in his belt makes no sense
He probably also owned a rifle
No way to comparison between a master innovator I.e. Leone and bad replication such as Tarantino's based definitely upon advertising but poor art.
Clint made good bad and ugly from a A- to a A+ the other two helped to .
If it wasn’t for Sergio Leone Clint would’ve been just another mediocre actor in Hollywood that most people wouldn’t even know today.
Tuco and angel eyes were top notch in that movie not just Clint.
Corbucci, Sollima, Leone - Three Sergio's that's where it's at! Tarantino stole/took it from Fulci, Argento, Di Leo, Castellari, Lenzi, Godard, Corbucci, Sollima, Hong Kong cinema, Misumi, Fukasaku and the whole new B genre and many many many other creators of giallo, noir, poliziottesco, kung fu, western, blacksploitation, pinku and yakuza films and so on. Never cared to steal from broadly appreciated creators because that would be called stealing.
It was hilarious how Tarantino couldn't handle the truth that Goddard thought his movies were garbage and that instead of naming his production company after Bande A Part he should've just given him some money. Then Tarantino went onto ramble that he had grown out of Goddard or some non sense like that
Much applaud to Monsieur Goddard and cutting the crap of Tarantino's gigantic ego.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 That I like to hear! French New Wave is not my cup of tea but I like what he did there, deep down he will never be a true creator in the eyes of who he once admired, he is a DJ with the best staff to do every idea he can come up with. Pulp Fiction was a spark of hope and a bit of a fresh breeze I will give him that but he just went the completely other way and that opened a can of worms really.
@@MrSzczotkowsky I can see that, I'm not going to pretend I love every Goddard film like 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her.
I mention that film because I even though I didn't enjoy watching it, the ideas it transmits have resonated with me up to this day. Right from the starts it clarifies it isn't an actual movie, but an approximation of one, and through that sketchy unfinished style, it gives a lot of interesting points on the art of filmmaking; like the arbitraroty of showing certain visuals or the inevitabily fakeness of am actor playin a character.
My point is, the french new wave directors indeed made a lot of innovative and creative methods of making films that have been adopted by american mainstream cinema, like there is a scene from Taxi Driver where Martin Scorsese quotes 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her. And they made use of intertextuality 30 years before Tarantino got started. The difference being the use, french new wave dorectors would use quotations to other films to make commentaries on said films and help illustrate the ideas they want to transmit, while Tarantino only copies a scene he thought was cool on another film and puts arbitrarly on his own, losing all the nuance of the original scene in the process.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 My beef with French Wave is the fact that their ideas did not last long yet people claim it was a revolution because of Brecht and other big names. It was interesting but it worn out very quickly, historically I do not think it was that great and important as students make it out to be as a lot of this stuff was in silent films. It is still a lot of fun to watch though snd youare right they had their own vision and idea for cinema, they wanted their historical place and rightfully earned it being smart and critics themselves. American industry pretty much is pragmatic to the extreme extent. They pay shitload of money or just base it on a fact that they recognised it and adapt it for shallow audiences. It is all about the industry, america had only a chosen few and their ideas were battered left right and center, Orson Welles was very bitter about his carrier at the end of his life... I was once very anti-american but I like old american ideas however they butchered way too many things on their path and their hollywood legacy is now loosing as we speak, being transformed to successful streaming services it is a death of cinema as we know it and creators like Tarantino are very last anyway. Soon it will be over and few movies per year will not change that. Not much of originality left it is all about technology which is only a natural shift I'm afraid,cinema has stopped tackling real problems, all I see is another family drama or dysfuncional nihilistic story, they have no idea about real struggle of avaredge joe. South Korea is a bit behind socially and they actually hit their actual social problems spot on.
@@MrSzczotkowsky I don't think the same, A 24 and Netflix are the closest thing he currently have to a United Artists kind of studio. There are still options for new directors with fresh ideas to have economical backing from production companies that only care about profits. What I do see difficult now is to have a movie like Apocalypse Now being produced now, but even then the studios were hesitant on how much money that movie had cost.
700th like. *Cue Morricone's Theme.
"The sound of spaghetti"
Leone todo un genio y maestro , Tarantino uno cualquiera que sólo copio los estilos de los antiguos maestros!
El estilo cinematográfico de Sergio Leone era cine en su máxima expresión. Los primeros 20 minutos de Erase una vez en el Oeste sin contener una sola línea de diálogo te cuenta todo lo que tienes que saber sobre esa película.
Tarantino es un creador de collages, cortando y pegando de otras, mejores, películas y poniendolas en las suyas. Sin mencionar su obsesión por los diálogos llenos de referencias que en su tiempo eran encantadoras, ahora son molestas y sobreusadas.
I like rotini better than spaghetti. But that’s just me
Leone era un genio, Tarantino e' un cannibale.
Tarantino è un grandissimo regista, e su questo non ci piove. Disprezzare lui per elogiare Leone è come disprezzare Picasso per elogiare Da Vinci, sono due persone con stili diversi
Hai detto la cosa giustissima!
@@BlueGuyTube si ma lo stile di Tarantino e' fumettistico, e ha derubato alla grande i registi italiani degli spaghetti, nel cinismo dei loro personaggi, negli anti-eroi, nelle inquadrature; e francamente manca un ingrediente importantissimo a Tarantino, il phatos (giusto in Pulp Fiction Ve n'è un po') e le storie sono abbastanza telefonate! Tarantino e' regista di azione (depredando i maestri) ma non di genio.
Don’t think I would liked living back then There wasn’t any Amazon
Tarantino's westerns aren't even comparable to Leone's, two different leagues..a nerd and a genius
15:13 oh mierda , nunca lo habia asociado
I haven't seen Tarantino's Jungo - not ready...
It sucks.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 I agree
And nevertheless Tuco's pistol hasn't bullets
Yyyyyyeeeeeeaaaaaahhhh I think I prefer Leone’s work.🏜
Tarantino's ending is more of Hitcockian--or as he would put it, a De Palma--build up. De Palma would use the cranes and the loud and extended violence. Leone made the violence quick, with the exception of Tuco and Blondie shooting there way out of town. The super long extended violence is now a staple unto itself that only Tarantino does. I personally don't like the gore-fest. There are other directors that stretch out gore violence better than Tarantino, like the director of Bone Tomohawk and Dragged Accross Concrete.
tarantino is the best "young" director today, because there are no directors anymore
unfair comparison 😅
if you take the very best film of leone, copolla, scorsese, depalma or friedkin; they all will disappear the very best film of tarantino
Quentin have nothing on dollars trilogy
imagine the fusion of Sergio Leone and Quentin Tarantino
It would be The dollars trilogy but shitty.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 HOW DARE YOU?
Leone was already perfection. Adding in anyone else to the mix, most of all Tarantino, would only muddy things up. Leone and Tarantino are NOT on the same level. Not even close.
Leone by a mile!!!
Leone was better, because he did all that, almost without finance and without real scripts, and the cameras were a joke
Sergio Leone is maybe the best director of all time!
Tarantino, you mean captain overrated 🤣
Tarantino is not that good.
‘In Tarantino’s film the music occupies a smaller part in the sequence-‘ You’re trying to analyze this like there’s a difference between masterpieces. There’s not. ‘The good, the bad, and the ugly’ is the only masterpiece here. It doesn’t use ‘a smaller part of music in the sequence.’ It’s just not nearly as good. Plain and simple. You’re comparing gold to granite. Don’t try to trick us with your British accent. I should stop while I’m ahead but I won’t: They’re completely different, made during vastly different eras. I would go so far as to say Django unchained isn’t even historically accurate. Blacks weren’t running around with everyone else as portrayed here. Black women in bonnets and fancy dresses, black men riding and bounty hunting, integrated into society. I know you might not know this being from the UK and all. Integration happened much later, and it was forced, at gunpoint. This ‘what if’ western movie is just a pandering fantasy.
No mercy. Goodness gravy.
Ig you can't expect anything intelligent from someone who calls themselves "American Pewdiepie".
The Good The Bad and The Ugly is hardly historically accurate either
tarantino really sux
Quinto shouldn’t make any more Westerns, crap
Considering that the last one he made was a critical and financial success and brought back Morricone's beautiful music and made him win an oscar, then please, make way more westerns
BS
Kiuraz Hateful Eight is mostly unanimously agreed as being in the bottom half of QT’s filmography in terms of quality though.
QT’s had three homages to westerns now (Django Unchained, The Hateful Eight, Rick Dalton’s character arc in OUATIH). And those three films have been some of his most self indulgent and my least favourite of his films.
So I understand it’s all subjective and some people love his western homages, but I think a third of his movies being heavily influenced by westerns is enough now. I’d much rather see another Pulp Fiction/Reservoir Dogs/Jackie Brown style film rather than another western.
It’s like how does Quentin want to be remembered? The guy with most of his films being in his own original style? Or the guy with most of his films being homages to old genres like Kung Fu flicks, Westerns, Grindhouse films.
@Kaizer.Beatz Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is easly my most hated movie of all time. Just a self congratulatory piece of shit that celebrates an old and decadent way of making movies.
Just look at his portray os Sharon Tate, who is the ultimate symbol of the dangerous and toxic culture of celebrity worshipping and violence, he instead rewrites history and turns a very tragic event into a fucking parody.
What bothers me the most is that he stole the "Once Upon a Time" moniquer from Leone's Once Upon a Time on the West and Once Upon a Time in America which was used as way deconstruct the myths of America and the darkest sides of history, while Tarantino makes the most secure and pandering decision of making a shitty Disney fairytale.
