The sprawling railways are reaching the far-west, and somewhere along its way, in the small border town of Flagstone, the paths of four characters are going to cross and clash: a young woman looking for a fresh start, an outlaw on the run for a crime he (this time) didn’t commit, a ruthless killer on the payroll of a railroad tycoon, and a mysterious man with no name who plays a couple of sad chords on a harmonica and a few cadences on his revolver.Perennial good guy, Henry Fonda, plays against type in what’s often considered to be the last great Western of American cinema, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST.Join Rob and Elysabeth as they pair Fonda’s steely-blue gaze with a fine glass of wine and commentary. (Originally aired January 27, 2021)
