Wallace Stroby, author of one of my favorite novels of last year, HEAVEN’S A LIE, returns to TSR to discuss my favorite film of all time, Sergio Leone’s ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, and all things in its orbit – history, beginnings, endings, duels, landscapes, influences, restraint (or the lack thereof), characters – and Leone himself as well as a broad look at spaghetti westerns (and their heirs apparent), the music of Ennio Morricone, the impact of the film on Wallace's writing, and more. Our full conversation lives here.
