故事叙述一名神秘客(查理士布朗逊)来到小镇上，被卷入一名寡妇(克劳蒂雅卡迪奈尔)与铁路大亨的土地抢夺战。剧情在1954年《游侠神枪》(Johnny Guitar，又译《荒漠怪客》)的基础上加工，莱昂和贝托鲁齐参与了编剧。方达一反常态演反角，令人眼睛一亮。颜尼欧·莫里康的配乐已成经典。影片节奏舒缓，颇具气势。此片最有趣的角色，是由一向形象正义的亨利方达，难得在此片中扮演一名冷面的残酷杀手，从头到尾几乎没有表情，只有嘴角偶尔小有动作，让人不寒而栗……
Once Upon a Time in the West is a 1968 Italian epic 1 spaghetti western film directed by Sergio Leone for Paramount 2 Pictures. It stars Henry Fonda, unusually cast as the villain 3, and Charles Bronson as his enemy. Bronson was offered the role after Clint Eastwood turned it down. The screenplay was written by Leone and Sergio Donati, and composer Ennio Morricone provided the film score. The original version, a big success in Europe, was 166 minutes long when it was first released in December 1968. The version for the US release in May 1969 was edited down to 145 minutes and was greeted with mostly negative critical response. It was a financial flop 4 in the U.S.
