"The greatest song ever written was conjured by an Italian for a scene in a Western filmed in Spain where a Polish man pretending to be a Mexican bandit does a gay little run through a graveyard for three and a half minutes uninterrupted "
Fun Fact: In the script, this entire scene consists of four words: "He enters the graveyard." Leone, Wallach, Delli Colli, the editors and of course Morricone did the rest.
This is one of the few movie scenes I have scene that sticks around with me. There's not many times that a movie or specific scene has this much of an impact on me, but Morricone and Sergio were absolutely geniuses. They blessed the world with their gifts and I am eternally honored to have had a chance to see and hear their masterpieces
This great music will outlive this world and will be played even in the other unknown WORLD! Another fact, the dog on this scene was improvised on the spot. Sergio Leone, who was afraid that the scene was going to slip into melodrama, released the dog without informing Eli Wallach first--thus, his look of surprise is quite genuine.
This is what movies were meant for. It made me feel like 10 things at once. The epic feeling. The sense of total freedom. How ridiculously cheesy and campy it was. I laughed, I cried, I cried from laughing so hard and vice versa. Fantastic!!
Watched this back in the 70's when it was on TV and I was hooked for life. Going to Sad Hill Cemetery in 2021 was a life long ambition fulfilled. If you're a fan of the film then it's a place you just have to visit.
I was but a child when a neighbor came to my parents home with a "45" of the theme to the Good the Bad and the Ugly. It was good but I only know this one scene for the "Ecstasy of Gold". It is unbelievable. Remixes do it a disservice.
This scene is so clever, absolutely brilliant! I never tire of watching it and being enthralled and transfixed by Tuco's running search through swirling graves and gravestones with Ennio Morricone's "Ecstacy of Gold" playing through it. Ecstatic!
It's been my lifelong dream to watch this scene on the big screen someday. It hasn't happened yet. I hope it does. Any theatre will do. I'm gonna gush fountains.
The movie where rowdy Yates starred in a role playing a marine who rescued tourists from middle-eastern soviet cartels thugs working for Cubans had a scene where the real artillery fire actually knocked Clint Eastwood unconscious and everybody thought he was acting but rmhe really got taken down with a real shockblast because Hollywood used to use real props because nobody knew what to do with army surplus munitions that wouldn't be useful against any new militsry equipment because of quantum-tech involving the prestige like stealthdronebots that make all you bullets fly back at you like nightcrawler.
Makes this scene impactful. We are watching Tuco desperately run around a graveyard trying to find $200,000 in gold which would be worth millions today. Most men would behave the exact same way as Tuco did in this scene. That’s why the song is called the Ecstasy of Gold.

They really used a military trained actor who could really surf a shockblast with a real antique cannonball because They actually had real war veterans left alive to teach and perform the real Shockwave ride slingshot stunt like an ocean surfer riding a gravity wave because the components of those weapons involved quarts and florescent metals like a monarch-butterfly built to fight hybrid soldiers who could fight off a really Sasquatch serpent mound fog-smile-nope demon frogdogmonkeybuttscorpionslugharpoonedspidercentipede swallowing 🌽holeshark llama-eel moth-fly soldier who drank ameobic water to wash down all the selfgenocidal throneofzeus Minoan killegg kenwrath bodysbatchers amongus termite faculty witchery that slavesoldiers were forced to do to themselves while drugged with nighshadescopedope and brainshrimp and nervelice.
i was playing a game called gang beasts with my freinds right and i was on this subway map with trains that come and run you over. and i was the last mad standing other than my other friend and i shit you not he was on the other side of the platform right in front of me staring me down and we did nothing for 10 seconds just standing there not saying anything just looking at each other and this song was just playing in my head over and over it was so fucking epic i felt like a bad ass
I refuse to watch today's crappy "super hero" movies I will continue to watch the great westerns of Clint until this genre Returns like a lone rider from the desert horizon
This film was made for $1.2M (approx. $9.5M adjusted for inflation), too, which is just absurd when you think about the budgets of today's bloated cgi monstrosities. Geniuses like Leone and Morricone are few and far between these days.
He’s not the real bad dude that’s the bad he is the ugly as he represents the worst quality’s of people like befriending Blondie only for personal gain

The scene where the ugly assembles a gun in the store was also all improv he had no clue about how guns worked
@@tyuk5107 Which is doubly funny given that this was far from Wallach's first western or war film!
RIP Ennio Morricone .Thanks for the wonderful music.

Seems like gold is something you dig out of one hole in the ground and then bury in another hole in the ground.
I love this movie beyond reason. Sergio's Westerns are the best ever done!
I could listen to this on loop for ever more. Beautiful
A masterpiece, simply beautiful.
I feel so bad that I can’t really enjoy the song because I’ve heard it used so many times for that one beer commercial
This must be one of the best and most epic scenes of all time
Best song. Ever.
What a song! How magical!

What's a 45?
@@deepanshbhargava4714 It's from the days of old. Vinyl record with one song on each side. Played at "45" rpm as opposed to 33 1/3 for an album (:P)
Rest in power to Ennio Morricone. I imagine this was the song that played as he approached the gates of heaven.
Just watched the movie for the first time. Beautiful song and a beautiful scene
RIP Ennio, the ITALIAN STALLION!
That sigh and muted cackle he does as he tosses the map away, knowing he has made it to what they have been searching for the entire time. Priceless
Right up there with the Imperial March as one of the best pieces of music ever written for a movie.
and the Top Gun anthem
I first heard this song as a re-score in the book of life movie during the bullfighting scene. It's been with me ever since.
This scene is so clever, absolutely brilliant! I never tire of watching it and being enthralled and transfixed by Tuco's running search through swirling graves and gravestones with Ennio Morricone's "Ecstacy of Gold" playing through it. Ecstatic!
Seeing this movie as a kid changed my life!!!
Saw this when it came out and own it now to watch whenever.
Much better when the screen was 35 X 70 feet BIG.
It's been my lifelong dream to watch this scene on the big screen someday. It hasn't happened yet. I hope it does. Any theatre will do. I'm gonna gush fountains.
Only now - finally - are these masterpieces of cinema being given due credit!

🗣 I watched this *Great movie* several times on TV. The biggest impression on me was this scene ... *Well done*
No other title can describe this scene better
Amo esta película. Un abrazo al maestro Ennio Morricone, que este día dejó el mundo terrenal para fundirse con el infinito Universo. ✨🙏🏼✨
R.I.P. Ennio Morricone
Rest In Peace Ennio Morricone
Ennio and Eli what a pairing. Rip Ennio. Of to score the everafter with gold
Tears, man tears.
Great Scene Great Music Great Film
RIP master Ennio Morrocone. ='(
RIP Ennio, absolute genius
tumblr wasn't lying
that is a gay little run

Un-k ....., un-k...... - there's no name on it! There's no name here, either!
Oh, that's where the music's from.
The best western
Great Movie , Great Soundtrack Masterpiece in my opinion ... and guess what no John Wayne or Gene Autry LOL ???
Skullivan Franklin Gene Autry, That would have been The Really Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
Amazing👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.
The best scene spaghetti western
Good job editing this scene for You Tube. Better than the other ones. Some are to long, short, or add their own dialogue.
Just the final scene in the graveyard makes this a great film
MASTER MASTER
i personally think they should of put the Ecstasy of gold on the scene where Blondie Angle eyes and tuco fight
But why was the most epic music ever made put on such an un-epic scene? It's just a guy running around a graveyard!
Makes this scene impactful. We are watching Tuco desperately run around a graveyard trying to find $200,000 in gold which would be worth millions today. Most men would behave the exact same way as Tuco did in this scene. That’s why the song is called the Ecstasy of Gold.
Nearly a perfect movie.
not nearly. it is a perfect movie
Amazing! I'm off to play RDR ....
Sergio Leone directed this masterpiece of a scene then 3 minutes later said “wanna see me do it again?”
I miss ennio

Eli Wallach must have made quite the impression on a young Steven Segal. There is no doubt Steven ripped off Eli's girlish running style.

@@coattanimous7182 hilarious and original
@@KaptonTimo Its the lack of polish. Modern movies are very clean and perfect.
That Tumblr user was right, that sure is a gay little run.
That whole graveyard is uneven ground and he’s driven by pure “ecstasy”, it’s quite fitting for the character.
Not that the song isn't good but also like...what was the point of this scene haha
He finally finds the grave with Gold inside
the way tuco runs through the cemetery like jack sparrow
Huh... Well, for being the supposed "real bad dude" of the sort, lol.. He runs like Forest Gump.... Just saying...
He's not the real bad dude, he's "the Ugly," so maybe his running like Gump is somewhat fitting, no offence to Forrest.
He’s not the real bad dude that’s the bad he is the ugly as he represents the worst quality’s of people like befriending Blondie only for personal gain
ok they were right that is a pretty gay little run
