Once upon a time in the West (1968) - Final duel (HD)

 


You wouldnt believe it, but ive found this scene popping into my head these last few weeks quite a bit. The hanging scene with father and son reminds me of succession, and how eventually the father must pass on however much the son my try to avoid this. We cannot stop time. The weight the father knows in his life is passed on to the son...and our  parents we become. The things which broke them will eventually break us. Yes, this scene smells of succession alright.
