THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
[IL BUONO, IL BRUTTO, IL CATTIVO]
The final installment of Sergio Leone's hugely influential Spaghetti Western trilogy finds Clint Eastwood returning as the mysterious loner (representing the Good) who roams the Western frontier for fortune at the height of the Civil War. Forced to form an uneasy alliance with Lee Van Cleef's Sentenza (the Bad) and Eli Wallach's Tuco (the Ugly) to steal a cache of gold, he and the outlaws cross and double-cross each other to walk away with the treasure and stay alive. Ennio Morricone's iconic soundtrack was on the charts for over a year, reaching number four on the Billboard pop charts. DIR/SCR Sergio Leone; SCR Agenore Incrocci, Furio Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni; PROD Alberto Grimaldi. Italy/Spain/West Germany, 1966, color, 179 min. NOT RATED
