Yep, and the same applies for music. There is a good reason why 70s, 80s, and 90s music is still played today. But I bet you alot, the 2010 music will be forgotten within 20 years... instead, the 70s will be played forever, just as the movie classics of this era.
What I don't understand is did Indio miss the sister If not then why were tears rolling down his cheek Was that because he knew he was about to die But he was tearing up when he was playing the chime too
Lee Van Cleef is the most unique western actor ever. He deserved so much more recognition but what he gave us is already tremendously precious and valuable. He will always be remembered among the best.
Why oh why does every TH-cam commentator try to back up their ignorant opinions by appending the words "ever" to every statement - as if they know even a tenth of what they're claiming to know. Name another eight of the most "unique western actors" and enlighten us then as to why he's THE most unique. We'll wait with bated breath, on tenter hooks.
@@viktorszenasi3664 You mean like the thoughtless people who say "best night ever" and "best dad ever" in the most vacuous and risible sentiments. It isn't a figure of speech, it's just a mindless use of language.
I am Danish and 73 years old, and I have been seeing more than 100’s of westerns. However, this is the best western EVER. The ending is absolutely the best ever shown. I have kept the movie on my computer for 30 years to be sure that it will never leave me. Thank God for this movie and thank God for keeping Clint Eastwood alive.
Some heroic situations, the more they age, the more their value and their spiritual influence over the material in the human psyche, and this is one of the great examples of that...
@Kyle Reese Eastwood is conservativ ans he likes weapons, but 1. his films are very "human" 2. see "Gran Torino" , here Eastwood shows clearly, that he is not a rassist, he is thinking about rassism
Agreed. With just an artistic eye and a strong story you can make some thing huge out of nothing. And as for CGI I watched Kubricks Spartacus the other day. That last battle with the Roman legions isn't anything a director of this day and age could manage.
I just made the same comment but a bit elaborate in the comment section of good bad and ugly final scene just 10 mins before 😁. Good to see another one fellow have the same opinions .
"Any trouble boy? No old man, thought i was having trouble with my adding, its alright now." Quite simply one of the best lines in cinema if you ask me.
Lee van cleef is absolutely incredible in this scene. His smile when Eastwood asks about partnership at the end and the way he simply walks to his horse is just such a classy attitude.
-Seems to be a family resemblance -Naturally between brother and sister How can you explain so much in just two lines. No expository dialogue. Pure Genius!! Truly a timeless Masterpiece.
In 5 minutes Lee Van Cleef powerfully demonstrates rage, hatred, despair, sorrow, hope and relief with only his eyes and some minute facial expressions. This is what makes this scene one of the best ever in cinematic history.
I believe that Leone has chosen the actors very well, all characteristic, Lee Van Cleef has a face that speaks for itself, very expressive, perfect for the role!
Though The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is my all-time favorite, this movie comes to a very close second. I especially love the pocket watch score during this scene. Movies were absolute works of art back then.
Never underestimate the power of music. The simple entry of the strings at 1:29 elevates the tension - and continues throughout the scene. (Try watching this clip on mute - it really doesn't work AT ALL). He even decides to give up his share the bounty when finally reunited with the sound of his sister's watch . . .
A masterpiece that talks about honor, the value of word, the dignity in manhood.... music from morricone is simply astonishing. The scene of col leaving the money to his partner and just living alone with the chime in his ear, and the thought of his beloved and avenged sister.... the purity of that thought that he didn’t want to corrupt with money... and the music that starts just at that time ... wow ... tears come alone .... even after half a century
It's still very painful to me. He could stay with Manco since none of them had other friends or family waiting. It's like his life had no meaning after his revenge.
I totally feel the same. I only wished they emphasized this a bit more in the movie. I like in the German version how he replies "i don't want to earn anything in this thing".. meaning better because of sis revenge
What an amazing actor Lee Van Cleef was. Here he shows a caring, hurt good man but in The Good Bad Ugly he is a ruthless bad guy. Such a stark difference. I'm 39 and when i watched these movies as a kid I felt he was one of the most masculine men on screen. RIP to these greats.
@@gordonm7038 Bang-on! Exactly. Deep Focus was/is possible with 2-perf and wide angle lenses, as opposed to 35mm anamorphic, but it needs a LOT of skill to nail the exact focus and of course the framing and blocking are perfect here. Every bit as good as Kurosawa or Kubrick.
You can just tell van Cleef was going to win, not just because of him being the hero, but you could see it in his eyes and body language. No hesitation, full determination. He knew he was going to win, as he had something to fight for which Indio never truly had.
Indio truly lost that time because the thing he wanted to fight for was already lost.. back in the past he was already crazy, but he died inside when she died. After it was just a matter of time, he was terrifying, but dead inside. And Gian Maria Volonté acted it in a marvelous way.
Indio's whole ploy was that he had advantage knowing when the music ends. Facing the one guy who this handicap didn't apply on, on even ground after the Colonel got a gun too, Indio knew full well he was done for. Excellent writing that the bad guy wasn't really that good, and he knew it, he was a slimy cheater and got the perfect comeuppance.
Only in HD , I could see tears in El Indio’s eyes . Why so ? Never realized it all these years in our std TV sets . Dream to watch this in a movie hall someday “old man” 😅

Three masters of the art of acting demonstrating their talents together. Clint Eastwood's marble stoicism, Lees Van Cleef displaying an entire tense range of emotions using nothing but his facial expression and Gian Maria Volonte even managing to have a nervous sweat once his character realises he has lost the unfair advantage he always used and now has to face a skilled opponent on even ground. Fantastic scene!

All three of them are wonderful actors, Sergio Leone is a brilliant story teller, Ennio Morricone is a legendary composer, and together it makes this as one of the greatest films in the history of cinema.
Yes this is not Hollywood at all. It's an Italian western shot in Spain and Italy. The director Sergio Leone and the bad guy Gian Maria Volonte are Italian, some actors are Greek and German.
Italian original version : "Qualche problema ragazzo ? (any trouble boy?)" "No vecchio, non mi tornavano i conti, ... ne mancava uno! (No old man, I was having trouble with my adding ,,, one's missing)
Amazing scene and acting. Music by the brilliant Ennio Morricone. Those were the times when an outstanding actor could build an entire film narrative with one gesture and look. Almost every western film by Sergio Leone gave a clear message that a degenerate sooner or later ends his miserable life. Indio was well aware that he had absolutely no chance in a fair duel.
I'm astonished at the musical quality emanating from that pocket watch. It's practically orchestral. The jeweller is to be congratulated on their skill.
Nice one. Some heavenly sounds there.😇 I'm equally astonished by the photographer's choice of the girls' picture on both watches when one belonged to her brother.😄

@@FrostBeardy Interesting theory. Had a look back at some of the scenes again. Even slightly more puzzling as the Colonel identified the boy and girl as brother and sister after the shootout with Indio. 🤔
@@ericmcfadzean4104 did you not notice that Mortimer's watch chimes were not only orchestral, but also lasted longer than the chimes playing from Indio's stolen watch?
There's more action and drama looking at their faces close up then there is in all the CGI Transformers movies put together. I miss the old days of maximising impact from the little things. THIS is cinema.
It was typical of the Italian movies to concentrate on the faces. Leone mixed it with the western genre and it worked magnificently. It was like the random discovery of chocolate and peanut butter on bread.
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the best in the trilogy, but the final duel and ending of A Few Dollars More is pure gold. The scenario, acting, tension, music and tone are perfection.
My all-time favorite scene: not just in a western, but in any movie portrayal of the American southwest. The short scene of Colonel Mortimer riding away into the sunset with the theme song beginning with whistle, mouth-harp, and guitar, defines America in its truest form perfectly.
An incredible scene with music by the genius Ennio Morricone. Those were the times when good actors could create the atmosphere of a film with just one look👍
I always found it funny that these movies were bankrolled by German money, shot in Spain, directed by an Italian with mostly Italian actors who spoke next to no English with just the one or two American actors and these spaghetti movies were the first to depict a more realistic and believable Old West, before this an American western starred John Wayne or Randolph Scott and were totally devoid of realism and the dirt, hardship and the general nitty gritty of the wild west. The spaghetti westerns were the first that felt more believable.
Well, as I've said many times before on this topic - In this world, there are two kinds of Westerns, my friend; those directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood and those that aren't.
partly right, but golden age of american western movies was in the 50's where heroism and manichaeism were the rule, but in the 60's we started to see some more realistic american productions just like The Magnificent 7 but it is right that S.Leone gave a new start and abreath of fresh air to a fossilised genre
This film is 50 years old now. It's cool how Clint Eastwood and Morricone are still with us. Not the others though I know, but their memory lives with us.
this is by far my favourite from the trilogy... the acting is amazing especially between indio and the Colonel... the Outlook from indio opening the watch and the Colonel in the background is one of the best scenes ever Shot... and as for the ending... i always thought indio never shot back at the Colonel when he sat up at the end... because deep down he was haunted by what he did... and knew the Colonel was in the right... a Masterpiece from start to finish 👏👏👏
Oh man I wish Leone was still alive. He made some kick ass movies. The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly is one of my favorites. I love his westerns over any others. Just the world he creates that's beautiful yet sadistic and brutal. Just incredible.
Hahahaha so true. I remember as a kid playing "cowboys" in the park with my mates and trying so hard to flare nostrils like Lee so I'd look mean... Thank u I genuinely laughed out loud at your comment
After avenging his beloved sister in the duel, Col. Douglas Mortimer is leaving on horseback with his back silhouetted against the sunset over the dry, barren land......the loneliest figure in the movies I've ever seen.
I agree so much! This ending made me so sad.... Why didn't he stay with Manco? Mortimer is the only true friend he made in the entire series, and it's not like any of them had family waiting for them... It's like his life ended after he got his revenge. Still hard for me....
@@nisiriti I, also, wish I could have seen their next partnership. But now Colonel had avenged his sister on Indio, I'm afraid it may have been rather difficult to make the next drama.
@@papapabs175 The man walking alone away into the wilderness does seem to be bitterly lonely... in contrast to the family rejoicing to have just been united with the lost daughter at last.
I know that most people think that the Good the Bad and the Ugly was the best part of the trilogy...but damn, i love this movie! The performances, it's storyline and the legendary music by Ennio Morricone... I believe this is the best "Dollars" film ever!
HELL RISES AT NORTH GATES Exactly... I used to watch these movies with my dad when I was a kid, but it wasn't until I was an adult that I appreciated the true meaning and the feel of what the story and screenplay depicted and illustrated. (I am 33 now)
Sin grandes recursos, y sin tecnología pero películas hechas con pasión y actores de verdad, están películas quedarán inmortalizadas para toda la eternidad...gracias Sergio Leone y Ennio Morricone QEPD...
My god am 50 now and these films are 50 yrs plus...watched them 100s times ...unreplacable....never ever see these classics made again.....what 3 films they made....legends
Absolutely - every so often when i have seen a film of whatever type finish with a poor ending I come back to watch this - it has everything including humour; pathos; brutality; justice and a sense of nostalgia
These films were too big for the screens they were meant to fill. Big in every way. Thank you Ennio, thank you Sergio. As a boy, my mum tried to get me into these films, but I always hated them. Now I love them. Modern opera at its finest! Bless you all XXXX.
Lee Van Cleef and Clint Eastwood what brilliant partners .Fast on guns ,smart ,and brave ,cold faces ,never mad highly concentrated to take justice in their hands and finished their task's right on spot quickly with not much talk .So good so impressive acting and this is movie like more valuable then any gold and any treasure . Something like this can be seen only once in the life time.
We will never have movies like this produced again . That is why we are still watching them . Priceless.
Couldn't agree more. You have good taste.
True Chris they don't make westerns like this anymore
Yep, and the same applies for music. There is a good reason why 70s, 80s, and 90s music is still played today. But I bet you alot, the 2010 music will be forgotten within 20 years... instead, the 70s will be played forever, just as the movie classics of this era.

The combination of Leone and Moriccone was unbeatable. As Ennio told some years before, he first made the music and then Leone made the movie scenes.
Growing up they were actually classmates.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the best in the trilogy, but the final duel and ending of A Few Dollars More is pure gold. The scenario, acting, tension, music and tone are perfection.
Got brought up watching these films throughout the 70s, best western movies ever
I wish music played like that when I put my belt on. Magnificent score.
I get shivers every time I watch this… same as I did the first time in 1967.
The music is phenomenal , I was a kid when I went with my dad to watch this film, I could not remove the music from my head for few months.
Superb. Nothing comes close even today.
I can’t begin to explain how well this movie has aged
Three unforgettable actors of world cinema, an unforgettable movie until the apocalypse
I liked Van Cleef considerably more as a good guy than a bad guy. Although he got basically no lines here, his face told volumes.
+Andrew Wang and that is the mark of a truly great actor
I'm used to see him as a bad guy because his performance in "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly".
Sergio Leone master of silence sometimes you don't need words👍
Good and bad r subjective, both r good and bad based on your side
I don't know, I don't think Indio thinks he's much of an angel.
My all-time favorite scene: not just in a western, but in any movie portrayal of the American southwest. The short scene of Colonel Mortimer riding away into the sunset with the theme song beginning with whistle, mouth-harp, and guitar, defines America in its truest form perfectly.
One of the best films and endings of all time. A masterclass.
An incredible scene with music by the genius Ennio Morricone. Those were the times when good actors could create the atmosphere of a film with just one look👍
"Try this", "Now we start", "Bravo", "My Gun?", "Maybe next time...", "27!": just some of the most epic lines in cinema history...
I always found it funny that these movies were bankrolled by German money, shot in Spain, directed by an Italian with mostly Italian actors who spoke next to no English with just the one or two American actors and these spaghetti movies were the first to depict a more realistic and believable Old West, before this an American western starred John Wayne or Randolph Scott and were totally devoid of realism and the dirt, hardship and the general nitty gritty of the wild west. The spaghetti westerns were the first that felt more believable.
+John Maddin It turns out that big budget doesn't bring everything to the table, good directing/acting does.
ye just to understand that all hollywood movies are bullshit
Well, as I've said many times before on this topic - In this world, there are two kinds of Westerns, my friend; those directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood and those that aren't.
partly right, but golden age of american western movies was in the 50's where heroism and manichaeism were the rule, but in the 60's we started to see some more realistic american productions just like The Magnificent 7
but it is right that S.Leone gave a new start and abreath of fresh air to a fossilised genre
HA!
You obviously don't have a clue about the real west. This film is an abomination of everything that went before it.
What an acting by Gian mario volonte. I think he deserved an oscar with 2 roles in dollar trilogy
And he nailed them both!
This film is 50 years old now. It's cool how Clint Eastwood and Morricone are still with us. Not the others though I know, but their memory lives with us.
The gates of heaven just opened for Signor Morricone about a week ago
Even though I have watched this scene more than hundred times still it is fresh for me. How clever all artists who made this. 🙏🏻
this is by far my favourite from the trilogy... the acting is amazing especially between indio and the Colonel... the Outlook from indio opening the watch and the Colonel in the background is one of the best scenes ever Shot... and as for the ending... i always thought indio never shot back at the Colonel when he sat up at the end... because deep down he was haunted by what he did... and knew the Colonel was in the right... a Masterpiece from start to finish 👏👏👏
Oh man I wish Leone was still alive. He made some kick ass movies. The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly is one of my favorites. I love his westerns over any others. Just the world he creates that's beautiful yet sadistic and brutal. Just incredible.

He was working on a script on Stalingrad but died before he finish the script. That would have been a been a GREAT movie.
Lee Van Cleef , what a great great actor, Rest in Peace with Jesus by your side
And that my friends is why this film is an absolute bona Fida classic
The music gets me every time.The will never be movies as good as these the music,the actors,the places the movie is taking place....just perfect
Incredible and marvelous scene. It deserves a place of honor in film history
Clint Eastwood's squint and Lee Van Cleef's nostrils are both of Legendary status.
LOL fuck that was hilarious!!!
When you said nostrils, you really meant those "Angel Eyes" instead.
Those nostrils should win an Oscar
Hahahaha so true. I remember as a kid playing "cowboys" in the park with my mates and trying so hard to flare nostrils like Lee so I'd look mean...
Thank u I genuinely laughed out loud at your comment
And the sweat on the bad guys face...
Absolute cinema classic. Sound and vision Brilliance 👏👏👏
The best ending duel to any Western ever.
This and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly has the best ending duels ever!
The ending of this film is a masterpiece ... entertainment which you can never tire of
As much as I love for a few dollars and the good the bad the ugly once a upon a time in the west has the best ending in my opinion
No. The good the bad and the ugly.
No...the good the bad and the ugly is without a doubt the best ever...epic...
A beautiful movie, and Klindishwood, his acting is very beautiful and brave, as if the movie is modern❤🌹
Most poetic scene in any western ever
After avenging his beloved sister in the duel, Col. Douglas Mortimer is leaving on horseback with his back silhouetted against the sunset over the dry, barren land......the loneliest figure in the movies I've ever seen.
I agree so much! This ending made me so sad.... Why didn't he stay with Manco? Mortimer is the only true friend he made in the entire series, and it's not like any of them had family waiting for them... It's like his life ended after he got his revenge. Still hard for me....
What about John Wayne at the end of the Searchers 🤔
@@nisiriti I, also, wish I could have seen their next partnership. But now Colonel had avenged his sister on Indio, I'm afraid it may have been rather difficult to make the next drama.
@@papapabs175 The man walking alone away into the wilderness does seem to be bitterly lonely... in contrast to the family rejoicing to have just been united with the lost daughter at last.
@@nisiriti to be precise, the name of Eastwood is "monco" and it means "without-a-hand"
I know that most people think that the Good the Bad and the Ugly was the best part of the trilogy...but damn, i love this movie! The performances, it's storyline and the legendary music by Ennio Morricone... I believe this is the best "Dollars" film ever!
Now we start
Perfect
They told everything without out a single word.
HELL RISES AT NORTH GATES Exactly... I used to watch these movies with my dad when I was a kid, but it wasn't until I was an adult that I appreciated the true meaning and the feel of what the story and screenplay depicted and illustrated. (I am 33 now)
Russell Howell Same story here mate.
Russell Howell
Thsts right, no words, no help of any kind.. just their faces to work with, SUPERB. The hatred in Lee Van Cleef´s eyes.... no match in a movie.
"Pure cinema" as Hitchcock called it.
Sin grandes recursos, y sin tecnología pero películas hechas con pasión y actores de verdad, están películas quedarán inmortalizadas para toda la eternidad...gracias Sergio Leone y Ennio Morricone QEPD...
Sheer cinematic magic. So many film makers bow down to this.
My god am 50 now and these films are 50 yrs plus...watched them 100s times ...unreplacable....never ever see these classics made again.....what 3 films they made....legends
One of the best movies of all time....
Absolutely - every so often when i have seen a film of whatever type finish with a poor ending I come back to watch this - it has everything including humour; pathos; brutality; justice and a sense of nostalgia
These films were too big for the screens they were meant to fill. Big in every way. Thank you Ennio, thank you Sergio. As a boy, my mum tried to get me into these films, but I always hated them. Now I love them. Modern opera at its finest! Bless you all XXXX.
Lee Van Cleef and Clint Eastwood what brilliant partners .Fast on guns ,smart ,and brave ,cold faces ,never mad highly concentrated to take justice in their hands and finished their task's right on spot quickly with not much talk .So good so impressive acting and this is movie like more valuable then any gold and any treasure . Something like this can be seen only once in the life time.
Don't forget the great interpretation of Gian Maria Volontè.
One of the greatest endings of all time
Listening to Ennio Morricone's musical score through headphones.. the gradual build up from the beginning, enough to give you goosebumps!
The look in lee van cleef’s eyes when thé second bell is coming is incredible
Now WE start.....
