As everyone will tell you, now you need to watch Leone's "Once Upon a Time in the West."
Yes for sure. Then “Once Upon a Time in America”
Yes, I have both these movies on my list 😉👍🏻
Great stuff!
Fun fact.
They blew up the bridge for real but used too much explosive.
If you watch the scene where Clint dives for cover you will see a huge rock come hurtling at him and thud into a sandbag beside him.
They got very lucky they weren't injured.
Oh man, seems like they weren't far enough from the explosion. Luckily no one got hurt.
This trilogy has actually four movies, because the next Sergio Leone’s movie, Once Upon a Time in the West, is sort of the end of Leone’s western movies, but he couldn’t get Clint Eastwood for that one (he got other amazing actors though). The soundtrack is again by the fabulous composer Ennio Morricone, Quentin Tarantino’s favorite composer. Sorry about the water shortage situation, the water always spills right at the worst moment.
I have that movie on my list. I'll get to it eventually 😉
Well for the past two months the water situation has been like that. Hopefully it's resolved for good now.
Tucco, Eli Wallach, did his own stunts. He owned a ranch and was a horseman.
All three of the main actors did a great job but Wallach's Tuco is one of my favorite fictional characters of all time.
I think there's a nice connection here between Leone and Paul Verhoeven. Both Europeans who produced what are now "quintessential" American films but which were initially considered more subversive.
Well...as far as I can tell, Leone did not see Nazi soldiers when he was 5 years old and then spend the rest of his life assuming that all soldiers are exactly the same as the ones he saw when he was 5...but yeah, they are both Europeans. 😂😂
Yes, this is the original soundtrack. And that is the kid from the 2nd movie.
Awesome 👍🏻
Tuco is one of the greatest original characters in movie history, right up there with Scarlett O'Hara, John Ferguson and and Phillip Marlowe. 33:46 Last time I lit a kitchen match like that, the yellow part stayed under my thumbnail and gave me a very surprising burn.
He really grows on you.
Ouch! 🤕🔥 Be careful. An injury under a fingernail is very unpleasant...
Awww yisss, you know we were waiting for it.
6:42 theres 2 main reasons why his fanning in this shot feels slower than in most of his other scenes
For one, the 3 men he was facing are much more spread apart then his usual targets, their clearly spread apart quite far and as such would take alittle longer to aim at them.
Two, in TGTBATU Clint is using a Colt 1851 Navy, much bulkier and slower than the Colt 45 he uses in the two other movies
I see. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on that! 😊
BTW Eli Wallach was a top tier actor - RIP. to see more of his acting chops check out "Babydoll" a great 50's movie that has been forgotten sadly. ;-(.
2 cents.
If you want to light a match in your hand, you first need a good wood match. Then put the tip on the underside of your thumb nail and prick it. Be careful not to get it stuck under the nail or you will get burnt. Use to do it as a dumb kid.
I'm sure it looked cool to light a match one-handed as a kid though 😂
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
The best western of all time, hands down. That bridge scene sometimes gives me nightmares. I dream that men are still fighting over the bridge, completely unaware or despite that the Civil War has long been over. I understand it is weird for someone like me to fixate on, but the Civil War is a hobby interest of mine and such a meaningless battle is horrifying to me.
Fun Fact: Clint Eastwood wore the same poncho through all three "Man With No Name" movies without replacement or cleaning.
Skeleton Key Fact: The skeleton found by Tuco (Eli Wallach) inside the wrong coffin at Sad Hill cemetery was a real human skeleton. A deceased Spanish actress wrote in her will she wanted to act even after her death.
Prequel Fact: This is a "prequel" to A Fistful Of Dollars (1964) and For A Few Dollars More (1967), as it is set during the American Civil War while the other two movies are set afterward. Towards the end of this movie, Blondie (Clint Eastwood) acquires his trademark poncho. It works when you take all three movies as a whole.
Historical Fact: Though no specific year or date is stated in this movie, at least part of it takes place during the New Mexico Campaign of 1862. This is confirmed when the hotelkeeper and Tuco mention the retreating Confederate General Sibley (real-life Henry H. Sibley) and the advancing Union Colonel Canby (another historical person, Colonel Edward Canby). This is consistent with the campaign that took place between February and April 1862 in the Union territory of New Mexico and the Confederate state of Texas.
In the movie, the bridge itself may not even be that important. It could be an excuse to battle, to establish the might of their armies, demoralize the opponent, or such similar purpose. And yes, many lives were sacrificed for that...
"Without cleaning?" 😂
Well I guess for a poncho, it's still acceptable if they took care of it right.
No way... 😯
To act in a movie even after death, that's baffling.
Yes, I noticed Clint wearing the same clothes. Especially his poncho which has become like his trademark.
Thanks for sharing! 😉
You're welcome! 😁
By the way, I suggested several animated movies. Just curious if you are getting to them in the near future. No pressure, I'm just inquiring.
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
I've added those animated movies to my list 👍🏻. I have hundreds of movies on my list right now, and it's hard to know when I'll watch any particular one. I'll get to them eventually 😉.
Fair enough. I was just wondering. Have a great day!
Go with God and Be Safe from Evil. 😎 👍
Thank you for posting.
Here's my thoughts on Tuco.
Tuco is one of the most interesting characters I ever watched. I honestly don't believe he committed half the crimes he was accused of and rather than deny it around people who aren't going to believe a bandit then why bother? I mean does he strike you as someone who would rape, nonetheless a kid? And Blondie hears these charges and doubt he would be an accomplice to a deviant like that when bandits were as plentiful as farmers and ranchers back then.
Another thing is you could tell he almost felt hurt when his brother asked about the wife he ran out on but as he said, he had two life choices and he chose his and doesn't think arguing would be helpful. I have always believed he made the comment about his brother being a coward was purely out of hurt feelings that he believed Tuco really committed all those things.
Tuco also deliberately plays an idiot at times though when he does make mistakes or tries to be clever, I laugh even to this day when watching those scenes. An idiot does not get the drop on Blondie twice and a lot of people who downplays his role seems to forget that.
A fun fact for this film was Eli Wallach totally adlibbing putting that gun together. Experts have stated that what he did there was impossible but Eli made you believe.
Finally, the bridge was a strategic area and both commands probably felt that that bridge being intact was necessary.
Edit: You didn't miss much with your muted ending though you did have a bad copy. Tuco's last line was, "You know what you are? You're a Son of a b.. (with the music censoring the last word)
I do admit that I warmed up to Tuco by the end of the movie. I really hoped Blondie wouldn't leave Tuco to hang, and thank goodness he didn't.
The charges against him were numerous. In fact, the charges for his first hanging and second hanging were different. I wondered if his crimes were too many to read all of them. But perhaps you were right, that Tuco was wrongly accused for some of them.
I had seen it as Blondie being inexperienced during this movie, since this is considered a prequel. I do agree with you that Tuco is smarter than how he acts sometimes.
We can see how Tuco feels about his brother and how he wants to be treated. Even after the argument with his brother, he still spoke of good things about his brother to Blondie. What he told Blondie was how he hoped his brother would treat him. No matter what happens, all he wants is to have a place to go back to, and a bowl of soup.
I absolutely believed it when Tuco assembled that Frankenstein gun, but that's mainly because I know nothing about guns 😂
Oh, don't worry about the ending. I rewatched it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, I didn't miss much.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 😊
Another top reaction. Don’t give up on Sergio Leone. His next trilogy is, arguably, even better. Do please continue with his films.
Thank you! 😊
No worries, I'll get to them eventually 😉
I recommend you watch Duck, You Sucker!
this is by the same director Sergio Leone.
this is one of my favourite films
I'll add it to my list. Thanks for suggesting! 😊
Sorry to hear about your water situation. Hope it gets solved soon. But watching this movie thirsty perhaps enhanced the immersion in the desert scene?
If you enjoyed Sergio Leone's western movies so far, his next is the best western ever made in my opinion; Once Upon a Time in the West. It's the first in Leone's real trilogy. They can all be watched as standalone movies as neither characters or stories are connected. There is only a common theme that connects them - The ending of eras and the people who can't or won't change their ways too keep up.
As I heard it, Leone got a three movie contract with basically no other demands than that the first had to be a western. He didn't really want to make another western, but got a good deal and outdid himself making the best one ever. No Clint Eastwood in that one though. The other two are Duck, You Sucker! (aka A Fistful of Dynamite aka Once Upon a Time... The Revolution) and Once Upon a Time in America.
The iconic music was by the legend Ennio Morricone. They worked together in a very special way. When making Once Upon a Time in America (and maybe other movies?) the music was already recorded before filming was done, so the cast has told how Leone played the score on hidden speakers while shooting some scenes. Since he always dubbed his movies it worked fine and this gave the actors a whole new experience when working.
In Once Upon a Time in the West all the main characters have their own music theme, and they are used very cleverly in the movie.
I'd rather not end up as thirsty as Blondie in the desert scene 😂
Yes! All the movies you mentioned, I have them in my movies list 😉 so I'll watch them eventually.
It must be quite an experience to have epic music blasting on speakers as you're shooting an epic scene. I'm sure it helps the actors immerse themselves in the scene better.
Thanks for sharing 😊
after watching your review of this movie- and my below remarks about Eli Wallach being such a fan actor, my mind goes to Carl Maldin(sp) who was also good in the same move "Babydoll"............then (I've had 6 beers now - so my mind wanders, and so I wish to impart my wandering to you Sir) - Carl Maldin (good actor - not as good as Eli, but good) - so I remember he was in Babydoll (both in it and in a great movie too) - then rememver Carl was in another great movie called "Patton" with George C Scott - who sometimes over acts, but in this movie (Patton) was PERFECT, where Carl Maldin played a supporting acting role.
Patton - top movie - top10 pf all time, as was George Scott (in this movie he is top 10 of all time - but in other roles - as in the remake of 12 angry men - Lee Cobb topped him for sure - so Scott was great in Patton, but Lee Cobb was better in 12 angry men.)
IMO the most consistantly great actor was Paul Newman - all natural, never over acting.
The Hustler (great 60'ds movie about Pool)
Cool Hand Luke
check out both - and Newman is tops- as are both movies.
BTW personal fav is Breaker Morant, with another great actor Edward Woodard (in The Wickerman also - good movie too)...............Breaker Morant - check it out.
2-cents.
When water is scarce, don't limit your drinking. Limit every other use but that. Water isn't like food; the human body doesn't have a "water saving mode." Rationing drinking water is about equality in a group of people, not about the best strategy individually. You need what you need when you need it. So if you don't actually have to ration your own drinking water, it's best not to.
Thanks for your concern 😊. I made sure not to dehydrate myself as I saved water.
Do watch "High Plains Drifter" please. It's another Clint Eastwood western that has a similar feel to these, but it's the best of them all IMHO.
What your viewing audience doesn't know was that several northern states were officially declared bankrupt only weeks before the civil war in the US took place and to make them solvent they needed to loot the south of it's riches. Freeing slaves was the cover story for the civil war because most southern landowners didn't own slaves because their Christian religious upbringing wouldn't allow them to, so they allowed slaves to work for wages, unowned. There are official statements made by Lincoln which can still be researched that proves he didn't tolerate blacks living among Whites or considered them as equals in any manner. The south new Lincoln was a traitor because he allowed northern corporations to feast on the wealth of the south and so he was assassinated as a traitor. If you look at the congressional archives you'll find it was the Republicans and the south who voted for blacks to be free as well as the right to vote and the Democrats were the ones who rejected and voted against these bills in mass. In fact, it was the Democrat party members who created the Klu Klux Klan.
Good movie - and thanks for replies to my posts in other movie reactions. this movie is good (once a time in tha west is much better BTW - Henry Fonda (who is always good) - plays a bad guy!!!!!!! ya - reject type casting, which he did and played an excellent "bad guy" - and the movie was better than the one you are reacting too (which is also of course good) - but the other is better thanks to Jason Bobards, who was always top tier, and Fonda. Charle's Bronson was well ok - he carried it. not a great actor like the other 2, but the movie was better per the script and so he carried his wieght.
You've not seen either "Glory" nor "12 Years a Slave"? - or "once upon a time in the west".............if not you need to.
have much to say about all of them, but will wait until you have watched them.
BTW - I wish to thank you for replying to me a few weeks ago per my "zone of interest" post. there are many movies out there that have been forgotten for reasons I'll never understand - for they were/are worthy - make a social statement, but somehow are lost to cultural memory today. I wish to thank you for our open mindedness to discover some of those forgotten gems.
peace to you Sir.
ruclips.net/video/enuOArEfqGo/видео.htmlsi=DaVxjL12p3VE_C6v If you're interested in hearing how all the fantastic music is made the DNSO does a great rendition with their take on the main songs from this movie. The 1st part being comprise of the opening theme and the 2nd being Ecstasy of Gold.
Sure, I'll save it to listen at leisure when I have the time. Thanks for sharing it! 😊
your a goof
