      He made such an impression on me that I thought, poor guy, must be tough to get a job if you're an actor with a face like that.
      Then I looked him up in a movie encyclopedia (this was before the internet) and he looked rather Ok!
      Upon rewatching this movie, I started noticing that Wallach had to keep his face 'mean looking' all the time. If he hadn't, you wouldn't recognize him as The Ugly.

    The film was shot silently, so even English speaking had to be dubbed. It is known that the three main cast members (Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef and Eli Wallach) provided their own dubbing. Leone often liked to play Morricone's music over a scene and possibly shout things at the actors to get them in the mood. Leone cared more for visuals than dialogue (his English was limited at best).

    • @DoubleMonoLR
      @DoubleMonoLR 2 года назад +4

      There were actors speaking their native english, spanish & italian, which is apparently the reason for this.
      Unusually apparently an extended version was made in 2004 - Eastwood & Wallach recorded new lines for the extra footage.
      I think a number of 'spaghetti'(filmed in Italy) westerns were likewise dubbed due to non-english speaking actors.

  • @Verschlimmbesserung
    @Verschlimmbesserung 2 года назад +24

    There're so many subtleties in this movie that they tend to go over people's heads. For instance, the sequence where Tuco is on Clint's trail he's puffing on the discarded cigars so as to get an idea how close he's got to Clint. When he took a drag on that last one, smoke came up, meaning it was still burning, therefore it was left not too long ago, so he was getting close.

    The Good, The Bad and the Ugly is the best western ever. The score and the treasure hunt narrative driven by the personal stories makes it a true epic. The cinematography and direction are brilliant. Eli Wallach is superb. The point of the civil war battle scene is to show the humanity of the main characters (who are not bad), after all the soldiers are killing each other so why can't these outlaws kill. Angel Eyes is bad because he kills without emotion and often for sadistic pleasure. Once upon a Time in the West is also great, but personally, I feel it lacks a bit of the magic of this era defining Leone classic that influenced a lot of great film-makers who came later.

Strange one in some places, but there are some lines that he won't cross. He is definitely not "Bad" as with Lee Van Cleef character. That guy would do anything. All in all, those are pure classic movies to watch. And I agree, Eli Wallach was just simply amazing there.
      And if you like that, just check the music score, even one of the current performances such as "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - The Danish National Symphony Orchestra" on youtube. Morricone was a genius. And there is no question about it at all.

    An acutely stylish and immeasurably influential film. Sergio Leone’s genius, I think, was in his amalgamation of seemingly disparate elements. He co-opted the folklore of the American frontier, merged it with the films of Akira Kurosawa, and painted the screen with a Pop Art sensibility. With arguably the finest cinematic trilogy of all time, Leone’s legacy and the impact of this series endure to this day. Sam Raimi, Quentin Tarantino and Edgar Wright (to name just a few) have most definitely taken notes at the feet of El Maestro!

    I believe the whole “Man with No Name” label was added by the American distributor, United Artists. The first 2 films were released outside the US and when they decided to release TGTB&TU in the US they decided to bring all 3 of in at once and gave it that “trilogy” title. Also, spot on on noticing Eastwood’s lack of enthusiasm. He was mentally over with shooting these films overseas, he wanted to come back to the States. Also, these films weren’t easy to make and were pretty dangerous at times. There’s an interview he did where he discusses the difficulties with filming these movies.

    I have watched westerns for a long time, and each time I can come back to this Good Bad Ugly for so many reasons, not least is the music and filming and story. There is something about this film which outs me in these times,, like I've lived in the film. There are subtile things in the film that you have to watch carefully, like when the day after the bridge is blown up, Tuco and Blondie get up and walk towards the bridge, Tuco is leaving a trail of piss as he walks.lol...The biggest is TUCO'S character. No matter how many times I watch this, it breaks me up. I give this the Gold Logie of 10+

    Again, "They Call me Trinity" is a must watch of the genre.

    It's time to put *"Seven Samurai"* on the schedule, perhaps after a break from gritty realistic action.

    Tuco is absolutely the 'main' character, he's even got some depth added to his character when they explain his background and how he became what he is. That scene with his brother is so good because it just for a brief moment exposes the more humane side of him yet he puts the tough-guy mask back on pretty quickly.
    And you absolutely need to follow this up with 'Once Upon a Time in the West' which is on par with this movie.

    You might enjoy the Korean homage to this film, 'The Good, The Bad, The Weird'.

    I think one of the best parts (and the most overlooked) is the meeting between Tuco and his brother, because it shows what great director Leone is and how good is the screenplay: in just a couple of minutes Leone reverse our perspective on Tuco, turning him from a despicable asshole to a troubled antihero.
