In 1973, Eastwood told the film critic Gene Siskel, "No, I don't believe in God".[351] Eastwood has said that he finds spirituality in nature (as suggested by his Western, Pale Rider, 1985), stating that "I was born during the Depression and I was brought up with no specific church. We moved every four or five months during the first 14 years of my life, so I was sent to a different church depending on wherever we lived. Most of them were Protestant, but I went to other churches because my parents wanted me to try to figure out things for myself. They always said, 'I just want to expose you to some religious order and see if that's something you like'. So although my religious training was not really specific, I do feel spiritual things. If I stand on the side of the Grand Canyon and look down, it moves me in some way."[352] He has also said: "It would be wonderful to talk with my parents again, who are, of course, deceased. It makes the idea of death much less scary. But then again, if you think that nothing happens after you die, maybe it makes you live life better. Maybe you're supposed to do the best you can by the gift you're given of life and that alone."[352]
In 1975, Eastwood publicly proclaimed his participation in Transcendental Meditation when he appeared on The Merv Griffin Show with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of Transcendental Meditation.[344] He has meditated every morning for years.[353]
>I don't believe in god but also I participate in a spiritual tradition every morning developed by yogis for the intentional purpose of consciously rejoining with god via Samadhi.
Bravo
Morally nobody was good but skill wise the South almost beat the North with almost zero resources or industry, Way me and everybody else sees it as a Canadian.
>almost beat
It never did. Both its invasions of the north were turned back, and even as it was fending off northern invasions in Virginia it was losing in the west and along the coasts.
They did pull off some logistical miracles in creating the factories and mills at Augusta and other locations, most even most of their battlefield victories were tactical rather than strategic.
Not gonna get into it but at the end of the day the the US had the most firepower and white men on earth ended up going life or death with a couple backwater inbreds, shades of viertnam.
>Morally nobody was good
Burger-leaf education folks >South almost beat the north
Lol lmao kek heh kiddo, the only time the south came anywhere close was at Gettysburg, which was a hail Mary of the the highest degree. Even if Lee hadn't fricked up there'd still very little chance of the confederacy coming out on top. Grant had just won the most important strategic battle of the war at Vicksburg. Slave holders and larpers stay losing.
I always thought it was cool how the 3 main characters were just kind of caught up in the war and had no real allegiances besides trying to find the treasure, the war more just being a backdrop for their quest.
That part where Blondie and Tuco are dressed up as Confederate soldiers and run into Union troops covered in dust always cracks me up.
Sergio Leone made Italian movies critical of US politics, like making fun of the civil war.
But he never made a film that was a satire of Italian politics/government, the Mussolini government, etc.
Even Spain, where he shot several of his films, had their own civil war in the 1930s.
He's still my favorite filmmaker of all time, but like current Hollywood leftists he really doesn't know much about politics.
He doesn't care and he said it himself on a french documentary. He was a socialist younger but became more of an anarchist with the years. That's what he said https://youtu.be/xhyx-283fVk

and shit, it wasn't even about the land or the money or the woman, it was about him. you hurt enough people, eventually one of them is going to hurt you back.

play louder
Just that good men on both sides died. Blondie sympathy to a confederate soldier and let’s him smoke one last time before he dies
The main characters are oppourtunists, they are on a mission to get that gold, they help the soldiers, but only to get what they want

Where does it say the North is bad?
Morally nobody was good but skill wise the South almost beat the North with almost zero resources or industry, Way me and everybody else sees it as a Canadian.

The South was doomed from the start, but it did punch well above its weight for a little well

You're thinking of the Outlaw Josie Wales.

War is bad

It's the ultimate film for apolitical chuds

thx I made a mistake
Isn’t that most people in most wars
Well, on this point alone, Sergio Leone was a homosexual who never took a hard look at Italian politics during World War 2.
?

I don't think Leone was making fun at all. His political commentary boils down to "so many people dying, damn.... it's a shame"
He doesn't care and he said it himself on a french documentary. He was a socialist younger but became more of an anarchist with the years. That's what he said https://youtu.be/xhyx-283fVk
OUATITW is pretty much a Marxist, Third-Worldist film

Like all wars it was fought for lies and lots of good people died for the hubris of some rich politicians.
