Who’s Watching What

I was just watching Once Upon a Time in the West , a very good Sergio Leone Western. Henry Fonda, as Frank, plays an excellent psychopath. But as I was watching the commentary, some film historian said it was an oddity why Leone showed Frank meeting the widow at the ranch, then jumps to Mesa Verde where Frank meets the railroad baron then jumps to the ranch where the other characters are and then jumps  to a love scene with Frank and the widow, back at the ranch. Why the film historian thought the love scene was back at the ranch, I don’t know. I thought it was rather obvious that the love scene was taking place in Frank’s Mesa Verde camp and not back in the ranch’s bedroom, which had already been reviewed in detail.
