Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone created works together for the ages. "Once Upon A Time In America" ​​(#OnceUponATimeInAmerica) from 1984 was their last collaboration and also Leone's last film. The 250-minute film, starring Robert De Niro, is by no means a fairytale, but the bloody story of a gangster clan. This film is set in 1922, 1932 and 1968. Morricone connects the time periods with heartbreaking melodies and Leone outdoes himself once again: He not only deconstructs the American Dream, but also the #gangsterfilm genre so thoroughly that in the end only the garbage collection can come. "Once Upon A Time In America" ​​is an extraordinary masterpiece that initially received rave reviews in Europe, but then flopped in the USA after the production company trimmed the film down. #EnnioMorricone, who wrote the music for more than 500 films, presents one of his most important works with this soundtrack.
