Spectacle, myth, fable – these words instantly leap to mind when considering director Sergio Leone’s celebrated films. His popularization of the Spaghetti Western genre, through works like A Fistful of Dollars (1964) and Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), continues to have a profound impact on filmmakers worldwide. In this exciting new study, Italian film scholar Christian Uva explores a side of Leone’s works rarely before discussed: the political. Grappling with the contradictions between Leone’s politically critical cinematic eye and his aversion to ideological classification, Sergio Leone: Cinema as Political Fable makes sense of how the director’s internal political tensions shaped the radical themes of his Western fables.
