A breakfast with Angel Eyes

- It's no remix, fan video or whatsoever: it's one of the first scenes in the movie (The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, that is) where we learn what kind of man is Angel Eyes.
Property of mgm, uploaded just because he is awesome and everyone should know that. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
I love how sweaty and filthy everyone looks. Feels authentic. Most movies today have actors looking way too clean.
Back then we would complain why they all got nice teeth 😂
That's why they call it a "revisionist western". Before that, rough and tough cowboys were looking fresh out of the box, all clean and dressed to the nines with perfectly combed hair.
Spaghetti western
Except their teeth. They did not look that good at that age in those days.
Immersion is a lost art in modern day films , it's been relegated to video games and of course the written word.
Lee Van Cleef could stare down Chuck Norris.
He did. That's why they were never in the same movie.
@@cabbievonbump Well, mainly because Van Cleef lost. But it was a VERY close battle.
Bruce Lee on the other hand...
@@cabbievonbump they were in the Octagon together. Good movie. LVC is actually a black belt himself.
No, he could not. Chuck Norris, would Stare into his soul, and make Angel Eyes, apologize for disrespecting him.
I couldn't agree with you any better !!!
This is gonna seem silly - but keep in mind I was just a little kid back then... I remember seeing this scene as a kid, and afterwards, asking my mom to let me eat with wooden cooking spoons she had for months! I also insisted on wearing super straight leg Levi's at a time when all the other kids were wearing bell bottoms. This movie was so incredibly amazing to me as a kid. I'm in my 50's now, and it still amazes me at how truly great it is. In my humble opinion, it's the greatest western of all time - period.
It's one of the greatest movies of all time not just Western which 100% is!
I always wanted to eat that meal
@@badder27com Me, too!
Made me go looking for tapered jeans too, you couldn't find them back in my day!!!!
@@badder27com anyone know what it is? I always thought it looked like squash or salad but i cant tell really.
No words in more than 4 minutes, but their eyes and faces say more than 100 dialogues... only The Maestro Sergio Leone could do this!!!
You might want to consider the opening half hour of Conan the Barbarian; music and action, very few words. "Crom!" Like when Thulsa Doom kills Conan's mother.
And I thought I was the only one who noticed....
you're right, leone got share at this but more important point is the master actors that can give the emotion with only face phrase.
@@countOfHenneberg Another of my favourite movies. The Conan soundtrack is one of the best movie soundtracks ever and it long past time it was recognised as such.
@@heisenberg5826 exactly. Van Cleef also does this in the final scene of A Few Dollars More. He could convey so much without ever having to open his mouth.
"Your family?"
Nervous, scared nod.
"Heh, heh. Nice family."
What a threat.
It's laughably sinister
He bares his canine teeth when he says this, which I'm sure was a purposeful thing
@@TracySmith-xy9tqLike a wolf talking to a hen
This is the part that gets me the most. Pure evil. Dude is smiling about a family he knows he's about to decimate.
shocks me that the intro scene is so gentle...at first he looks like an angel...then the music changes and he turns into the devil, 'cos you can finally look into his eyes. Epic.
Van cleff was a true westers bad man
Always played the parts with a feeling which gave the audience it was so to the time and real. Best fit he was in is this one. Good bad and ugly
Perfect bad that was likable til he started his violence. Best Western ever made bar none
The music in this is beautiful
@Sandor Clegane, the Hound but he had a magnetism that drew you straight to him. He makes me weak in the knees and makes my heart beat faster ❤️
@Sandor Clegane, the Hound Clegane. The fuck you doin here?
@@lucienvandegaart3428He had the scary gaze! Most men in retro era like to scare off small boys like a bogeyman! He looks exactly like my Auntie's husband give such a gaze if I was found stubborn or naughty as a kid!😀
When i'm paid i always see the job through. Good work ethic.
The perfect employee.
You KNOW that...
He wasn't even paid yet though. He didn't get the money till he went back to see the guy.
He was named employee of the month by his boss. Unfortunately the runner up paid Angel Eyes to kill him the very next day...
Bounty Hunter of the Month
Quentin Tarrantino obviously did the opening sequence of _Inglorious Basterds_ in homage of this opening. Leone was never afraid of the long shot, and if you have attention span greater than a gnat, you can't help but see the genius in this.
Tarantino has stated that this is one of his favorite films ever, so yeah.
@@joe743 "Senior Leone, you made a very good film [ A Fistful of Dollars] but it was MY film"-- Akira Kurosawa'
@@youssef24231 what did picasso say ?
'good artists copy, great ones steal'
all the greats do it
@@robertlehnert4148 difference is that just like Morricone (and many other Italian directors of that era) he probably wouldn`t have been a Tarantino fan. Unlike Kurosawa who loved A fistful of dollars.
@@sudacagamer Morricone was the composer not the director.
This movie was cast perfectly. No other actors on earth could have been The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!
Clint Eastwood,
Lee Van Cleef,
Eli Wallach,
...legends all!
Agree.
all brilliant, but wallach 'hit it out of the park'
a true tour de force
*I BeLieve in GOD, Hate Sod O Mites & am a Registered RePubLiCan!!!*
*But, I just Keep Voting DemoCrates ever since 2000, cuz of the EnvironMent!!!*
*Are there any Other Pro Environment Voters Out there who ALSO HATE Sodos???*
The music, the horse, the landscape, the man, the scene......the most beautiful introduction of death I have ever seen.
One my favorite scenes of all time
and of course the stew itself. Looks tasty in those huge brown bowls
@@Aljjocol you think like me....that stew
Yeah... it's a good one. But here's another: th-cam.com/video/hgHgpW4b5ew/w-d-xo.html
@@Johnny-rj9on That was cool.;-)
Angel Eyes should have been a cop. He can get people to confess without asking a single question.
ericynot I totally agree!!! Greetings from Italy!!! 😉
Well it helps if the subject KNOWS you're there to kill them. Kinda makes them say whatever they have to to stay alive. A cop wouldn't have that advantage.
ericynot doesn’t pay as well as being a bounty hunter
A CID
Not brutal enough to be a cop.
I came back here after watching the Fallout show, and the scene in the old Rangers shack with the Ghoul plays out in much the same way, you can see they took some great inspiration from the classics.
Thought the same thing! Even down to the wardrobes of Eric Estrada character and especially his son Tommy resemble those in this scene, and obviously Goggins ghoul being very similar to Van Cleef! Show is a masterpiece and can’t wait for season 2! As a Fallouf fanboy I couldn’t have been happier!
This scene came to my mind immediately when I was watching Fallout. Great reference to this classic western.
I would prefer having breakfast with Colonel Douglas Mortimer, than with Angel eyes :)
Well, he was asking for it :)
And when I'm paid I always do the job
MegaBojan1993 stupid
That would probably be wonderful in fact. Especially in a kitchenroom with the windows in the right way, cause Colonel likes to keep things safe. We might even bring in Munco for brunch but probably we'll leave him out because he's too busy with that gravediggah or whatevah.
Definitely
From Bounty killer Douglas Mortimer to Hitman Angel Eyes. This man has no limits.
*Why did OLd Guy Give him $1,000 & then Draw His Gun???*
@@Justin.Martyr He paid him off hoping Angel Eyes wouldnt kill him. BUt he always does his job regardless, so the guy took his best chance to defend himself but he failed. Angel Eyes took the money and kills the guy who hired him after he gets paid!
What makes Leone so wonderful is that he takes his time and let's the scenes build.
No one could play Angel Eyes but Lee Van Cleef. I am blessed I live in a world that I was able to watch this movie with my father
Amen!
Yep and nobody could have played Tuco
But ELI Wallach

The introduction of the villain in this movie is magnificent. A black silhouette of a man and a horse appears in the distance. As it comes closer, a little boy notices and immediately runs inside. We then see a man wearing a black hat get off the horse after arriving with a sinister version of the movie's theme song playing in the background. After hitching his horse, he comes forward as guitar music begins to play and intensify with each step he takes. He then stops and faces forward and that's when we come face to face with the notorious bounty hunter known as Angel Eyes. All without a single word spoken.
In fact it was almost another 3 minutes before a word was spoken, over 10 minutes into the movie. "You're from Baker?"
Leone was a true film director. He used the dialogue the story needed. No more, no less.
Lee Van Cleef standing in the doorway like the very emissary of death itself, is simply brilliant. No words spoken for a good minute because he is a master of conveying REAL DIALOG with just his eyes only. The man opposite him equally adept and his eyes projecting raw fear in the face of what is a bygone conclusion. Van Cleef has the same menacing stare of intimidation like the best legendary fighters The late Sonny Liston and Thomas The hit man Hearns. Total confidence and mental Supremacy and not one blink of the eye. They don't make Westerns or actors like this anymore.
I woulda' shot him dead the moment he paused at the doorway.
I like that analogy...
🥊
Nobody's commented it yet, but immediately after that shot, we see through the hallway from his perspective... And at the end of the hallway is the shape of a skull that the farmer and his son step into, foreshadowing their fate
That first glimpse of Angel Eyes on horseback appearing out of nowhere always sends a chill down my spine. This entire scene from start to finish is just pure brilliance!
When you know it’s gonna end bad : “That your family?”
I'm guessing he wanted to be sure that there was an older son somewhere in the house or on the property.
Everybody gangster till someone asks “that your family?”
That threat is right up there... with "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am."
Man manages to break someone mentally by simply eating.
Awww man , good one!!!
You said it!!!
I’m 70 and saw this movie on release as a young ( under age ) boy . Stayed with me throughout my life , an absolute masterpiece.
Nobody looks like Lee Van Cleef.Or sounds like him.Everytime I see this scene I get hungry and want to eat
Makes anyone want soup and bread when watching this scene
indeed he is so original
You know why you're hungry.....because these guys haven't eaten for days...just trail dust !!!!
Empty stomach like that you could eat a horse !!!!!
Have you seen Danny denzongpa?
This scene reminds me of the importance of "atmosphere," when dining.
I like how its never anything personal with Angel Eyes. He takes the jobs and just does them.
*2127
Van Cleef should have played a mad stoic philosopher.
Cannot count the number of times I've watched this movie. Early 80s when I was kid. Me and my older brother would sit down at the table to eat. Not a single word spoken. We sit and eat our food always looking at each other till one of us would crack and begin to laugh. Great memories. Great movie.
Lovely guitar solo at the beginning of this clip.
Best piece...
zooeyhall it’s called the sundown. Tarantino used it in kill bill. I’d say it’s the third best piece of music in the movie besides the main theme and the trio. Ecstasy of gold is 4th for me though
They call him Angel Eyes because if he ever stares you down you know you'll be in heaven soon.
Never noticed how well behaved and how beautiful Angel Eyes horse is.
Extremely elegant and balanced. A very beautiful, special animal. Riding one of those back then would be the equivalent of driving a very expensive sports car today (curiously enough, both Ferrari and Porsche have elegant black horses in their badges).
It’s a circus horse. LVC was in a serious car crash in 1958 and his left kneecap was severely damaged and caused him pain for the rest of his career (he visibly limps in 1981’s Escape From New York), so he was often given circus horses in spaghetti westerns because they’re less strenuous to ride. it’s why his horses always move noticeably different from everyone else’s horses
@@charlottesentenza8227 exactly, you can see him favouring his leg when he dismounts, which only makes him look more terrifying.
Man that guitar at 0:27 kills me everytime so beautiful
It kills that father and son every time too
so many actors when they have to play the bad guy they come across as "because im crazy" Lee VC just does " Cold Menace" ... brilliant character acting
Killer scene, Every scene of this movie is brilliant. Every shot is like a portrait or a panarama, and every word though sparse is filled with gravity and meaning.
The classic sequence reprised by Quentin Tarrantino at the beginning"Inglorious Basterds". This was both Sergio Leone and Lee Van Cleef at their best. Even if you were accustomed to seeing the latter actor as a villain in many previous westerns, this was a disturbing scene and one of those that very much set the movie apart on its own ground in the mid-1960's.
Tarantino also used this music to show Bill's face for the first time in Kill Bill Volume 2
I never knew watching people eat stew be so entertaining.
LOL.
This scene ALWAYS makes me hungry.
Most intense Mukbang ever
I'd like a bite of that stew fsm
Opening scene in Inglourious Basterds is based of this scene
Damn i never had noticed that... But now it looks obvious
Quentin Tarantino is huge fan of Sergio Leone’s westerns and his own movies were influenced by Leone and even used similar scenes in dedication to Leone.
That, and Brett's assassination in Pulp Fiction
Soooo glad someone else noticed it, too. Also Landa says with pride that he's just a good detective and that the name "Jews hunter" stuck to him by his enemies. "The bad" also admits "that's what he does, he finds people". They also smoke the pipe! It's an ovious reference!
I bet you're a life long virgin
The way he menacingly gets off the horse and begins his terror upon this house is mad!!!
A wolf's just sneaked into a peaceful farm..
8:43 I love how nonchalantly he walks out, stepping over the dead body, like it's just another day on the job. What a villain! Van Cleef was even better in this movie than the last.
SÉRGIO LEONE DESCRIBED IN A SENTENCE THE EYES OF LEE VAN CLEEF :
" ARE LIKE TWO BARRELS OF A GUN GOING OUT SPARKS."
I always watch this when eating soup and bread. :)
Ipoop7colors hey me too! that's why I'm watching it right now actually! lol
I just made soup and bread because of this scene! He eats soup in all his Eastwood movies. 🤣
More like stew and bread, looks like.
*fist bump* fellow foodie
Same with A Fistful Of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More when Eastwood and Van cleefs characters eat soup and bread makes want to eat it to, remember growing up as a kid in early 90s and eating soup while watching these classic westerns.
We can all agree, Angel Eyes killed it. “What’s the name Jackson’s hiding under?”
The brilliance of this scene is how much is being said without words. 4:30 until the first word and you're gripped for every moment of it.
Art at its finest!
Lee van cleef, what a legend..
Morricone music slowly builds from softness to the dramatic.....masterfully done.
I love the camera movement as it follows the boy on the donkey. Combined with the guitar music after it it, to me I feel captured into the serenity of the simple homestead life that's about to be destroyed.
This scene was set up so well, the scenery and music as Angel Eyes rode up. Sergio Leone was so good at setting up these scenes and then having them play out.
What an intense scene, saw it so many times but can't get over
6:53 - 7:10
He goes from smiling and pleased to serious and threatening in a matter of seconds. That’s some good acting.
angel eyes doesn`t waste a word...great name angel eyes....the slurping of the food and the adobe setting add to the mood....no problem figuring out who the bad guys are in this film....of course all the leads are bad...should have been called `the bad, the badder and the baddest.`
Lee van Cleef is definitely a BAMF. ❤️
"The good" actually kills more than angel eyes
Lee van cleef was the best tough guy in Hollywood s2
Lee Van Cleef. Legend!
"Best Of The Bad"
I think we need to drag general audiences kicking and screaming back to these sorts of movies with long, dense scenes of slow build every now and then for their own good
Lee Van Cleef is one of the greatest achievements the movie industry has made. This man was a stand alone and his ability to create and act such intense characters was what made him a legend……. Right up there with Clint Eastwood.
If I were eating breakfast with Angel Eyes I would be too afraid to swollow
I have always said Lee Van Cliff was number 1 actor in Western movies!!! He was the best...a real deal!!!
I dunno, there is a ever constant debate about that opinion.
Oh, that intro…
And that Lee!
Every single shot in this movie is a piece of art.
It's kinda amazing how this was filmed - I've watched this scene (movie) so many times, and even though i know what's building, it feels so serene ... even the building tension remains under the surface until the final eruption ... literally something i could fall asleep to
Leone was a master
"That's why they pay me" Love that line. Van Cleef was just a Man's Man.
WORD!
😎👊🏾
Angel eyes, The Bad.
What a great villain.
Art. Pure art. Nothing in here but sheer art.
Go smell your own fart.
"Not quite breakfast with Tiffany's but the food was good." -Angel Eyes
Tiffany's never sold any food.
The man actually exposes himself by talking too much as apparently Angle Eye had no idea it was about coins. Van Cleef plays the role and situation so brilliant. The face of a man who is curious to know why Baker paid him $500 for a name. And once he learns right after getting another $1000 he is fully decided to kill them both to win the cashbox alone.
*Why did OLd Man, Give his $1,000 & then Draw his Gun????*
Eyes of a wolf... Sergio Leone was certainly right about Van Cleef's eyes.
Reminds me of a snake.
hunter eyes
The eyes say it all, both staring straight at the other waiting for the first move, half way through Angel Eyes already had him at check mate.
Lee Van Cleef is an amazing villian. He was a staple in 50's and 60's T.V. westerns as well. What a scary looking dude.
The way he rides in on the horse at 0:57 and the music is majestic
Absolutely one of the coldest villains in movie history, made even more effective by how he's not ridiculously over the top. He's the type of man that Jules Winnfield would have nightmares about. If you hadn't gotten it by this point, the frantic, discordant music @8:23 tells you everything else you need to know about this man. He is indeed _The Bad_
1:14 probably the most menacing character introductions ever put on screen.
No over the top action sequence and no violence...
Just a sinister man with the face of a rattle snake coming towards the screen, invading your personal space.
Funny you should say that he has the face of rattlesnake, considering the movie Rango.
Exactly what went through my mind. His eyes glitter like a snake
EVERY TIME I eat stew..this movie acene always pops in my head hahaha
Dang I was thinking I was one of the only ones like that
That's the same boy actor in "A Few Dollars More".
He is not a boy actor that was Lee Van Cleef a legendary character and sometimes lead actor who often played villains and anti heroes.
@Scott Knode: “richiebear1969” is talking about the little boy...
Oh yea, the one who kept asking Clint for money. I didn't know that. Thanks for pointing that out.
I think he's in a Fistful as well.
That guitar at 0:27...oh man. Love it.
Donnoha booooooo
A true weeping spanish guitar.
For anyone that cares,
Apparently the soup they are eating is minestrone. Its usually a mixture of veggies and pasta or rice; sometimes both.
Here's something for you....Lee Van Cleef was actually faster than Clint Eastwood when doing the fast draw with a sixgun.
Was he ? Always thought Eastwood was the quickest out of the three.
Actually Charles Bronson was he said, but totally different movie.
I read there was a timed competition in the early 1960s, (Clint's Rawhide days) between most of the top western stars. Clint was faster than everyone. Think I read it in Dick Schiekel's biography.
"look, mommy; Satan has come this morning for breakfast....!"
Best score ever! Love this scene
When the kid notices Angel eyes is one the best movie moments ever
The magic combo of Eastwood and VanClef is what made spaghetti Westerns so timeless and special.
Watch carefully - this is pretty much the same opening that Tarantino used in 'Inglorious Bastards'. and he lifted Morricone's spanish guitar music for Kill Bill Vol 2
I love kill bill but the score is a total morricone rip off!
@@Kimberlytheresam Not sure if it can be called a ripoff if it's literally using Morricone's actual music. That'd be like calling the Reservoir Dogs soundtrack a ripoff of Stealer's Wheel
The brave father and son had no chance against the devilish Angel Eyes.
Lee can intoragate someone just by staring at him.
The music adds so much to Angel Eyes approach to the house. The music of Morricone is like dialogue. So much is said with the music.
this is one of the best intro scenes ever given to a villain in the history of cinema. Slowly letting it build its pace. Leone, you genius.
"You're...from Baker?"
"No, Barstow actually."
the Sententious Vaunter lulz
Scott Knode
It's a play on words.
Baker as in Bakersfield (California)
Barstow is also, in California.
I'm sure the comment was just for the lulz. 😊
18 13 actually Baker is also a city in California.
There's Bakersfield and Baker
And Baker is closer to Barstow than Bakersfield.
The angel of death joins for breakfast! Great movie and actors.
Every original . No one worked on someone idea just pure art. That why vintage can never be replaced.
If you would play as Angel Eyes in L.A. Noire you wouldn't have to question the suspects, you would just have to stare at them and they would tell the truth out of fear.
love that guitar as van cleef rides in
As the second scene in the film, it sets an ominous tone. If a child can die, no one is safe in this film.
I always loved this scene, the atmosphere, the food always made me hungry somehow... fantastic movie
Lee Van Cleef's evil characters he portrayed, during his lifetime was the type you ,never want to dare doublecross, meet In a dark alley, come face to face In a deserted city or town, or get stuck In a elevator with! That evil eyed sneer of his would scare the hell out of us all! I await your reply.
That's the reason Blondie was born...
Momma was gorgeous. With her high cheek bones.😍😍
With RDR2 out I wanna make my character look like Lee Van Cleef
Theres a player in Fallout 76 calls himself Col Douglas Mortimer.
I already did, look for iratecabbie in game.
Props to fallout writers for paying homage to such a great scene 👍🏼
"I always looked towards the floor" Chuck Norris when asked about LVC
Angel Eyes can petrify Medusa with his look.
Lee Van Cleef was an excellent villian.
Van Cleef's scary eyes are right up there with those of Jack Palance. These guys could show up and without saying or doing anything, you knew trouble was coming. A real badass doesn't have to raise his voice. The wife was played by the great Chelo Alonso, former Cuban cabaret dancer who hit it big playing seductive women in Italian peplum movies. One of her best roles had her doing a sexy dance for Steeve Reeves in order to seduce him.
did they ever appear on the same movie together?
@@davidjacobs8558 they did, in a 1976 israeli western called god’s gun. drowning in production troubles it’s objectively the worst film van cleef ever did (i’ve seen nearly all of them) and he didn’t even dub his own voice in it.
@@charlottesentenza8227 I have to agree. That film wasn't worthy of him.
That's high quality film making, directing, casting, camera, music, script etc. … I love those long moments of silents that tell so much
This film absolutely shocked people in 1966. It's nothing by todays standards but, back then..........wow!
Probably the best introduction scene in any film.
Is it bad I actually prefer Van Cleef to Eastwood? >.
+Lex Ellis Nope. No one had a presence like Van Cleef!
I don't know. Lee Marvin comes close and maybe DeNiro during the nineties.
Hymie Grier da fuck
Leonardo perez He was every bit as tough in "The Dirty Dozen" as Angel Eyes here. Van Cleef is a beast, but you know what I mean
Van Cleef is Vegeta and Eastwood is Goku
Brilliance! Sheer brilliance.
