Jason Robards was immense in this role. He acts as a kind of narrator, the glue that binds and a bridge between characters. Its a difficult part to play and he is just as good when speaking as he is when not speaking.
A man of proud character, Cheyennne recognized that he had taken and followed many wrong paths throughout his life and atoned for many of his past misdeeds by working with his followers for the welfare of those too weak to do so to do yourself. Atonement in the eyes of heaven,... At least I think so.
harmonica smiles about twice in this whole movie, on the train when cheyenne comes bk for him and when he says ‘pray its by someone who knows where to shoot’
I remember Cheyenne being shot completely catching me by surprise. He was my favorite character. I hated to see him die. I get the feeing that if he had not been shot, he would have stayed at the Mcbane house .
Essentially it’s an opera, a musical: the sound is just so critical -specially the silence of Harmonica… Making Henry Fonda the bad guy, is such a genius-move, perhaps less acknowledged now then when it came out. Like Lawrence, one has to see this in a cinema. This really doesn’t do justice to the craftsmanship involved. But thx for the upload,
I hated to see Cheyenne die. Yes, it was part of his atonement for his past misdeeds, but Harmonica loses his first friend, probably since his older brother was killed by Frank. Also, this must be anvv by alternative versions. I’ve seen this ending where Harmonica reveals Cheyenne’s mortal wound with the front of his revolver and has a look of shock, disbelief, and sadness…a much better version.
Well for one... I don't think there were any doctors in Sweetwater because it was still being built.. and two: he was a wanted man, so even if he could have made it to a town that had a doctor, he would have been arrested or maybe even shot on site. He would have died either way, unfortunately.
Ah, ah... In fact, that was the biggest and most bizarre script flaw in this great movie. Cheyenne was already injured when he had a long conversation with Jill in the scene before his death... And he never showed any pain... A gross flaw in the script...
@@georgemendes6844 I think you're wrong. If I remember correctly, there were one or 2 moments where you could see he was in pain from his facial expression. I think he just wanted to hide it from Jill. Also, him riding a horse after he left, even though it was a short ride in itself, I imagine it would have aggravated his wound even worst, which would have made it even more painful.
Cheyenne dies and a moment later the train whistles. The old west goes and the new arrives. Very symbolic.
Cheyenne seems to be the only guy who can bring a smile to harmonica’s face, even in the earlier train rescue scene
Yh bringing a smile to a dude whos sole purpose has been trying to kill someone for 30 years
Because in many ways, Cheyenne is the only one who understands Harmonica.
Cheyenne was a good Antihero in this film, sucks he died too soon at since he's represented as the Dying of the West and its Old Ways
Good analysis!

Jason Robards, was a great actor👍
Not great. Magnificent.
@@tommadane3550watch Jason in PHILADELPHIA with Tom hanks and Denzil Washington. Brilliant film
@@antoniosilvestro9045 yes Philadelphia was a great movie. Any other movies with Jason in it ?
@@tommadane3550 once upon a time in the west ! Lol

When I first watched this some time in the 80's it all most bought a tear to my eye's.....
He was a good guy in essence. Hated to see him die :(
Amazing cinematography on display in this scene.
Immortal friendship
Not exactly friendship. In the movie Cheyenne saves Harmonica's life, but it's not clear they were really friends. 😀
@@georgemendes6844 I’d honestly say, from this scene at least, it seems like they’ve become friends at this point.

Thank you for the upload friend. Great movie.
Amongst the best Westerns ever made. Gunfight at OK Corral,Duel at Diablo😎
Those two would have made a good team.
Beautiful !

You don't know how to play😊

Cheyenne ...CLASS
Damn bro, even the music died
Yes! The way the 'happy' music 'suddenly' stopped when Cheyenne died. Very cleverly done.
Tres bon film inoubliable comme toujours
Music stops when he dies. It's also his own theme. Amazing music and movie, brilliant. Seen it 6 times I think
Melhor cena de filme vista até hoje
Quem matou Chayene?
Greatest revenge movie
That's not the movie's central theme.
Sad, very sad.
Quelle ouevre d art la musique Henry Charles Jason et claudia c est lhistoire

Most meaningless death ever. Such a great character and actor combination.
Nobody ever explained the bullet hole in harmonicas jacket in the middle of his back ?
he took the jacket off someone he killed
@@351clevelandmodifiedmotor4 Was that hole not in the shoulder area from the opening scene? (p.s. I once had a '71 Boss 351.)

I love this film but he had plenty of time to see a doctor so why didn't he?
Well for one... I don't think there were any doctors in Sweetwater because it was still being built.. and two: he was a wanted man, so even if he could have made it to a town that had a doctor, he would have been arrested or maybe even shot on site. He would have died either way, unfortunately.
@@jnelson16701 I didn't realise he was wanted. I must watch it again as it's been some time.

@@georgemendes6844 Indeed, all he wanted was coffee. Still, It doesn't spoil it for me.
