There are two clips included: one of Fonda&#8217;s entrance in that film (a great entrance, with a flashy &#8220;look at me, Ma&#8221; camera move) and the second a clip of Fonda talking about that entrance on a 1975 talk show.  I suggest watching the second clip first, of Fonda describing the entrance, and then go back to watch the entrance itself.  Notice Fonda&#8217;s technical memory of each shot, each POV in that opening sequence.  That&#8217;s a pro.<\/p>\n<p>And of course.  Leone was right.  You&#8217;ll see what I mean after you watch the clip of Fonda on the talk show.<\/p>\n<p>Great stuff.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/peelslowlynsee.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/18\/jesus-christ-thats-henry-fonda\/\">Go read the whole thing<\/a>.
