Don’t be fooled by the pixel count or the quirky file name. A Fistful of Dollars is essential cinema. It’s the film that got sued by Akira Kurosawa (for being a shot-for-shot remake of Yojimbo —and yes, Leone lost). It’s the film that made Ennio Morricone’s whistling guitar riffs iconic. And it’s the film that taught Hollywood that the hero doesn’t have to be nice. He just has to be faster.
