    Morricone Once Upon a Time in America

    6. Once Upon a Time in America (1984)

    Harmonicas, vocalising and whistling appear in Morricone's haunting, lushly romantic BAFTA-winning score for Sergio Leone's epic saga about Jewish gangsters in New York. Robert de Niro and James Woods headed up a brilliant cast.
