While combining Ennio Morricone's music with footage from Rockstar San Diego's brilliant game, this video gives you the true essence of Red Dead Redemption.
Thank you for all the comments! I read all of them and greatly appreciate each one. I love making these videos and I'm hoping to editing professionally one day.
The song being played is "Ecstasy of Gold" by Ennio Morricone

America, early 1900's. The era of the cowboy is coming to an end.
When federal agents threaten his family, former outlaw John Marston is sent across the American frontier to help bring the rule of law. Experience intense gun battles, dramatic train robberies, bounty hunting and duels during a time of violent change.
Red Dead Redemption is an epic battle for survival in a beautiful open world as John Marston struggles to bury his blood-stained past, one man at a time.
"It's America. The birth of modern America. What was gained and what was lost.

"From our perspective, this movement from some kind of violent freedom to some kind of situation of much more overt state control; the movement from the individual to a larger collective where you have a lot less individual control over your life, or at least it feels that way. Whether you have that control or not is not clear but I think that movement from a primitive time to a time where we can see enormous parallels with our own time is what we found interesting about that period."
