What a waste of my time!!!

This is How Movies Should Be Made

The greatest movie ever!

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

It seems as if it all fits: Italian western starring Franco Nero, music by Ennio Morricone and a good atmospheric setting with a lonesome fighter. Too bad this 8-minute movie does not make a whole lot of all this and instead shows us what happens when our hero simply has no enemies anymore to go up against. Was that a symbolism of western being dead? I hope not as it certainly is not as there are good genre films coming out every once in a while, even if the actors today who star in these films are not defined by the genre like maybe Wayne, Eastwood and of course Nero were back then. Anyway, back to this one, all in all a great story was missing here to go with the strong basic additions I mentioned earlier. I do not recommend the watch.

Franco Nero is a gunslinger, per the film's title the last of his breed; he goes to an abandoned warehouse - the setting, presumably, is the present - and commits ritual suicide. An 8-minute short that's clearly an ode to the Spaghetti Western subgenre (though shot in black-and-white) and featuring one of its more durable stars. Even if very little actually happens - and, rather than utilizing music from Nero's own Westerns, the soundtrack draws on the instantly-recognizable scores composed by maestro Ennio Morricone for the Clint Eastwood/Sergio Leone films - it manages, in its limited duration, to be oddly elegiac and, indeed, is quite nicely done in every department.

If you love spaghetti westerns as much as I do, and that is a lot, you will probably enjoy watching this 10 minute short 7 or 8 times consecutively more than you would most other films, as I did, it's just that great! Franco Nero is... well... FRANCO NERO! And if this Dominici guy never makes a feature length film, not to mention a feature length spaghetti western, I will be enormously disappointed, he's got the talent to make 'em as good as the best ever did.Watch it and you won't be disappointed, in fact even if you hate Django, the 20 bucks you'll spend on it is well worth this extra disc alone(it's included with Django and comes on a little mini disc).

Great interpretation of Franco Nero! Very good the cinemathography of Dominici. Morricone's music arranged very well by italian pop group "Subsonica"
