This movie was great. I loved it!
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, or, Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo, or, Blondie, Angel Eyes and Tuco. Whatever you call it, it was fantastic filmmaking all around.
The characters were lots of fun, enjoyably acted by the three primary leads, and Leone was at the top of his game. Not to mention, Ennio Morricone composed the most iconic score in the history of the genre.
It was actually a prequel of sorts, set before the events of A Fistful of Dollars, and For a Few Dollars More.
I just wish there was a way to see the further adventures of The Man With No Name and Tuco.
The film was more of an epic than the other two in the series, covering more territory in the American West, and setting itself in a larger context revolving around the end of the Civil War, which went on for a time in places like Texas even after Lee surrendered at Appomattox.
There isn’t much else to say, aside from the fact that, like Yojimbo, I should have watched this movie a looooooong time ago.
