The italian ending and the english ending are two totally diffrent shots, to me the italian ending has alot more power to it, mostly cause the words sync up better and his preformance seems better,
I’ve been reading a few comments about the longer version not adding anything important. I think the added scenes do and I was thrilled to see them added on an extended version DVD many years ago, which is standard nowadays on blu ray. After watching it on VHS and early DVD hundreds of times I was blown away by the added scenes on the newer extended DVD. Getting the blu ray was a no brainer. I realize that some newer sound effects and dialogue had to be used that differ from the original, but I don’t mind, as the extra visuals we received with the addition of the deleted scenes, and picture restoration make it worthwhile IMO. Whichever camp we are in, original vs newer extended, we can all agree that this movie is an important classic.
Na versão com áudio em inglês mudaram o efeito sonoro, o estampido dos tiros estão com o som diferente, mais fracos, parecidos com o dos westerns americanos. Deve ter sido para adaptar ao gosto do público americano, sei lá. De qualquer forma algo sem sentido, que descaracteriza a obra do diretor.
I think the scene of Angel Eyes in the ruined fort/hospital is superb, and makes sense of his subsequent appearance at the prison camp. The scene with Tuco recruiting his bandit friends adds very little, and Walllach's voice wasn't quite up to it. I can take or leave the other bits. They are not essential.
When I was a kid in the 60s this aling with the previous 2 films were stunning westerns. Totally different from all others. Today they are still my favorites. Would of enjoyed seeing Clint Eastwood's version of the spaghetti westerns. Sadly he opted out of presenting the public with his version of them.
Over the years I’m guessing I’ve seen this movie 30-40 times and it’s just as good every time and often better. Eli Wallach gives what I feel is greatest performance ever. Just cinema at its best.
I never new this and i just watched the Amazon Prime version and it has the new scenes with their english dubs... it was awesome watching this movie years later with new content!
I first saw GBU in the theater in 1968; as teenagers we wondered why so many names in the titles were Italian !!! So I've seen GBU many times, and quite a few times in theaters, the last being the restored version as part of United Artists 90th anniversary tour. Most of the "added" scenes reinforce the message of GBU as an anti-war film, show guys without arms, without legs, wounded/weak soldiers at the "fort" Angel Eyes visits, bodies just lying on the sides of the road upon departing the mission....
I didnt know about this, i feel lucky now to be italian, i always saw the uncut version of the film and i didnt know i was seeing some scenes that americans would never see!
Some of that pain which Wallach felt might also be due to his inability to reconcile with Leone before Leone's death. They had a horrible falling-out during pre-production on "Duck, You Sucker", when Wallach gave up another commitment to make himself available for that film -- only for Leone to then suddenly give Wallach's role to Rod Steiger instead. Wallach threatened to sue Leone; Leone responded, "Get in line"; and they stopped speaking. Even after Leone's death, Wallach continued to be bitter about the issue until the 2000's, when he reopened his friendship with Leone's wife, not wanting to punish her for what happened.
I'd no problems when Tuco pops up with his pals years before I saw the Grotto scene. I understood immediately. He's Mexican, Blondie deserted him, so he obviously recruits a bunch of his own kind to get revenge. The grotto scene is the one I'd have included in an initial movie release, I have to contradict myself lol. It's just a good scene. The novelty swearing is important for 1966.
@@JohnSmith-su3ze they are not restoring the film to make people understand the plot. They are just making the film as it fully was in the original. Nobody cares if you did understand the scene or not.
------->>>>>>Yes... at 7:10 Blondie's love interest, or scene, no doubt early in the movie.... Let''s find this... and restore this additionally... to the original movie !!
I saw this picture in the year 1970 Being the fan of cowboy movie I saw this picture, I never forget this movie because the good story with excellent music with hummings, I never forget the soldier song, Seeing the movie everybody will sing the music in the mouth, I also sing thre music in my mouth in those days, Past 15 yesrs I sm having cell Phone Ring Tone is Good Bad Ugly Titile Music because still I am the fan of Good Bad Ugly, Daily I am hearing 10 times the ring tone of Good Bad Ugly Titile music To remember Good Bad Ugly, My thanks to the actors Music themes and other participated persons. Now my age is 75 years .. At the time of my bachelor life daily I will hear the Titile music in the hotel dropping one Rupee coin in the Record Plier Box. Now I remember in my life
7:10 very interesting. to me, one of the most interesting elements of the Man with No Name is that he doesn't pursue women. for instance, in "For a Few Dollars More" he ignored the red-haired, busty landlady who obviously liked him. but now it appears that they actually did make a scene of him with a woman.
I disagree. I think that the restored version provides a rich picture quality that looks even better on the blu-ray quality. The 1998 DVD release has nothing on this version.
This restoration was a disaster. John Kirk & co. didn't need to strike a new print of the film to do the restoration, they simply could've scanned the Italian elements digitally and avoided the loss of quality inherent in the copying process. But no, because John Kirk doesn't believe in digital restoration (!?) he decided to go the manual route. The result is an image that is somewhat spotty and dark, and heavily cropped in comparison to its Italian counterpart. What a waste!
The 3 amigos sliding down on ropes was a bit too comical. If his compadres just show up, that's acceptabel, as the scene with his brother established Tuco knows hombres in this area.
the object of the art is the creators vision , what the director wanted is the one valuable thing , all melding and bending and cutting is a lessor thing . cut, print . longer is better ,because longer is the prime mover , we are lucky , they try to care specifically now . good deeds , adue!
the ADR is really irrating in the new scenes I must addmit,mostly the gunshots. but seeing the film in its entirety it worth it. This is the only movie I can remember from my childhood that really stuck, im only 23 but this has got to be the greatest film ever made, I've never liked american westerns and still don't. TUCO!
I saw the French version after this restoration, and the added footage. Unfortunately the French actors who dubbed the original are long gone. The ones they hired for the new version are not even close to the original ones, and it ruins everything.
Why does at 2:17 show a 16:9 and call it Cinema-scope which is really 2:40:1? First they show a squeezed Anamorphic 3:4 at 2:13 - then stretch it to 16:9 - - - Overall Great job - I'm impressed with the results!
Uma observação: até o som dos estampidos dos tiros ficam mais fracos na versão com áudio em inglês. Não possuem o mesmo impacto e não passam a mesma emoção.
The added scenes only slow the movie down. Only a few of them work with the pacing of the film but most don't. Also Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach's new voiceovers distract me everytime I hear them. It's nice to hear them again but it's obvious they have grown old and they sound nothing like they did back then.
What version is this that they’re talking about that introduced new dialog recordings? I wonder how much different the actor’s voices sounded now that they’re so much older.
Sounds like old men.....would have been better with good impressions.......even better if they just left it alone......this is just another example of greedy execs scrambling to squeeze another drop out of a flat 🍊. Sorry just my 2¢
Honestly, I don't much care for the new scenes. They slow the movie down and really are pointless. Also the dubbing sucks and I hate that they added sound effects on top of the original ones just to make it 5.1 surround sound.
i agree with everyone saying these scenes are pointless they are they add nothing to the film at all like tuco hiring bandits it takes you out of the movie because that voice is elis voice that youd hear in making of features its not tucos voice and it adds noting oh its a continuity error they dont explain how hes suddenly with 3 guys who gives a fuck he hired them simple also one scene has some other guy speaking for clint it is soo distracting its like did a ghost posses blondie and change his voice another pointless fucking scene was lee van cleef going to a camp bribing some guy with beer for information thats the recurring theme with these scenes theyre pointless not every fucking thing needs an explanation
in the cave scene with the 3 bandidos, tuco`s voice sounds different...higher...obviously added on years later. i think the film is better without this scene....we don`t have to know where tuco gets the 3 from...knowing tuco, he was well fit to enlist buddies from the past...still, a great achievement....and it seems tuco shouts `bastard `not `bitch `at the end.
yeah we don't have to know cause when I first watched this film in my life, I just thought Tuco just paid some guys, so that cave scene isn't such necessary.
I wish these greedy corp execs would leave these classics alone......we just want to watch or hear the original we fell in love with......they "fix" 3 or 4 "mistakes" and then screw up the stuff that didn't need touched......I got an idea, I know how to make the mona lisa even better🤯
I am not a fan of the cave scene. The voice work is bad and distracting, and it wasn't necessary. Trust the audience to fill in the blanks. Editors exist for a reason.
Which one is "the classic/original" in "your" eyes? The US (160ish minutes) version, Italian (177ish minutes) version, or Roma (the true original and over 3 hours long?) version? Technically, Roma is the original version before studio execs demanded it be cut down for various audiences around the world.
a true work of art.
no movies today will ever even come close.
yes once upon a time in the west.
What a movie!!, a masterpiece of cinema.
sergio leone 4 ever, best westerns ever made.
We should all thank Kirk for bringing Clint and Eli back to re record the audio years later. Brilliant move not many execs would have considered doing

Fantastic, I will be hunting this new version down. Hands down one of the best films ever made.
Wah Wah Wah
ยอดเยี่ยมคะ👍👍
I wonder how much the italian full length version would worth today. A lot I bet. Love to have the poster from 66' advertising it in italian. $1000+
The only added I was okay with was Angel Eyes visiting the fort.
Most excellent job...
At 10:11 I see the pain in Eli's expression on losing Sergio Leonni
Some of that pain which Wallach felt might also be due to his inability to reconcile with Leone before Leone's death.

we dont need it spelt out! lol

If only "The Alamo" (1960) could've been restored like this.
I would like to see a Version with all cutted scenes. I even have the Reconstructed Version, but that's not enough of this masterpiece.

It's a Masterpiece.

I have VHS and DVD. What year did this come out?
Agree 100%
Adding something that Sergio Leone didn't film/add himself is sacrilege to many in the film community, including myself.
The new scenes don't add much Tuco voice has completely changed
Bluray version has problems with subtitles, about 1/3 or half of the subtitles are missing. Otherwise it fantastic

I went to Spain 4 times
how so ?
Why need reconstruction thats movie?
i agree with everyone saying these scenes are pointless they are they add nothing to the film at all like tuco hiring bandits it takes you out of the movie because that voice is elis voice that youd hear in making of features its not tucos voice and it adds noting oh its a continuity error they dont explain how hes suddenly with 3 guys who gives a fuck he hired them simple also one scene has some other guy speaking for clint it is soo distracting its like did a ghost posses blondie and change his voice another pointless fucking scene was lee van cleef going to a camp bribing some guy with beer for information thats the recurring theme with these scenes theyre pointless not every fucking thing needs an explanation

the scene from il triello is amazing of fantastic of this film
there is absolutely no need to see where the 3 bandidos came from!
tuco hired them! not hard to figure out! lol
I think the more they find the more they should add - it's like watching a new old Great film
yeah we don't have to know cause when I first watched this film in my life, I just thought Tuco just paid some guys, so that cave scene isn't such necessary.
Americans do not like movies too long. I have insufficient patience.
in my opinion, the added scenes did not ad to the film, it weakens the film.
Then you dont apperciate a full story
The added scenes suck
I wish these greedy corp execs would leave these classics alone......we just want to watch or hear the original we fell in love with......they "fix" 3 or 4 "mistakes" and then screw up the stuff that didn't need touched......I got an idea, I know how to make the mona lisa even better🤯

I know John...fuq him. He's a terrible actor.
I am not a fan of the cave scene. The voice work is bad and distracting, and it wasn't necessary. Trust the audience to fill in the blanks. Editors exist for a reason.
Every version besides the original is fuqqed. They try to make it better by "changing" it. Leave it alone!!! It's a classic.
