[edit] Where was it filmed?

I came to OUATITW specifically to find out where it was filmed. Anyone reviewing, who knows it might be a good thing to add. thanks anyway —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.106.192.144 (talk) 21:08, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Like all Leone's Westerns it was shot in Spain, with the one authentic location shot being Arizona's Monument Valley region (only for the shots of the wagon taking Claudia out to McBaine's farm). Used to lend a sense of authenticity to the the Western epic, this sequence of "trek' shots has became legendary, but not as legendary as the "West Shot" which has been copied by many famous directors (including Robert Zimeckis in BTTF3) wherin the camera dollies up over a rooftop to reveal a classic western main street (which Leone shot on the backlot in Spain). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.93.79.233 (talk) 14:14, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
