Claudia Cardinale became one of European cinema’s defining faces of the 1960s, moving effortlessly between Italian art film and sweeping international epics. In Once Upon a Time in the West (1968): A mysterious gunslinger, a ruthless killer, and a bandit converge over a widow’s valuable railroad land. Worth seeking out is Rocco and His Brothers (1960): A family of brothers migrating to Milan is torn apart by rivalry, ambition, and violence.
