on Lardani's Titles

research: MOTION GRAPHICS

My new article discussing the titles for The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is online today at Bright Lights Film Journal.

The glitch and other details of his first on-screen credit distinguish Lardani's title card from the rest of the sequence in a very dramatic way unlike the other titles, which are immediately obvious as credits, it is possible to miss his credit entirely, a strange distinction to choose given his role and, according to his son, complete freedom in creating the design. It is almost as if his title card is hidden in plain sight.
