Movie reactions are back! Feel free to let us know any other westerns we should watch!
Open Range, Tombstone, High Plains Drifter, Blazing Saddles . . .
Gunfight At The OK Corral. 1957.
Cinematographic masterclass. Effectively the same story as Tombstone but with Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster so way cooler.
Also The Wild Bunch The Searchers, Once Upon A Time In The West.
Once Upon a Time in the West
Once upon a time in the west is the best imo
Once upon time in the west
Fun fact: the skeleton we briefly see in the grave of Arch Stenton are the actual remains of a Spanish actress who begged Serio Leone to use her skeleton in a movie so she could be famous beyond death.
That's interesting where did you find that out
@@crimesforkibble6912 yes its true i can confirm... I think that this actress would be very happy today, she has entered one of the most important films in cinema... perhaps she felt it.
Eli Wallach. What a legend. Died aged 99 - made his last film appearance aged 98.
Tuco is the real star of this movie , Elie Wallach is amazing , thank you so much for sharing this with us !
Agreed. He's the only character that is developed. We see his brother and learn about his backstory.
At the detrement of Clint Eastwood's character which he was not pleased about getting less screen time.
The funny thing that became his most bankable characteristic for rest of his career, the strong silent type, man of few words. Must be difficult making a movie with actors making career related demands. @@karlydoc
Check out A Fistful of dynamite… you will love it…
@@Kinn72 I will . Thanks 👍
Tuco is such a good character
The music by Ennio Morricone is impressive and epic and beautiful! The theme song has been used in over 100 car commercials, and TV shows, and movies as well.
The epic conclusion of The Dollars Trilogy aka The Man With No Name Trilogy.
...& Metallica uses "Ecstasy of Gold" as an intro the past couple of decades
@@rayvanhorn1534 ...and Modela Beer has been using Ecstacy of Gold for several years in their commercials, as well.
Once upon a time in the west is a masterpiece, the masterpiece of the 20 century. With the Kubrik movies. Once upon a time in the west is different, more emotional. And there's a woman, THE woman, Claudia Cardinale. This movie makes me cry avery single time i watch it. It's pure genius, of course with an amazing Morricone score, and incredible shots. Everything is absolutly perfect in it. Please, watch it.
I love the opening. The rest ... I'm mixed.
Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda great-still can’t beat Clint for me
Yes, it's different but to me it's nothing compared to il buono il brutto e il cattivo. Apart from this, my favorite of the trilogy is per qualche dollaro in più.
No one mentions the genious move of Blondie at the end. Not only he took Tuco's bullets so he was the only one who knew on who to focus his shooting, but also if he died the others wouldn't have the money because there was no name in the stone.
This is the greatest western ever made, a masterpiece in every way. For another excellent Eastwood classic check out The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976).👍
No better team than Leone, Morricone, and Clint Eastwood. ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST is also a great Western by Leone. Clint Eastwood is missing from that one but Charles Bronson is a good substitute. Also a surprise villain.
Eli Wallach was the best actor in this movie, he made you love a truly despicable character.
When I first saw the movie I thought Tuco was played by a real Mexican actor. I didn't Tuco was played by a Polish-American actor. Wallach did such a great job.
Truly a great movie and Eli Wallach's Tuco is one of the greatest movie characters ever. I think he should've won a Best Supporting Oscar for it.
It was a time where these were considered cheap, pulpy B-movies and often critically panned. No one in the cast (or the entire production, for all that matter) was even remotely in the discussion for an Oscar.
@@TucoBenedicto Such a shame. Although I guess they proved their contemporaries wrong with standing the test of time ;)
@@cassu6 oh well. For what it’s worth, they were WILDLY commercially successful, so I doubt the studios wasted too many tears over it.
Many great Eastwood westerns.
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976)
Two Mules for Sister Sara (1970)
Hang 'Em High (1968)
Pale Rider (1985)
Honkytonk Man (1982)
High Plains Drifter (1973)
Unforgiven (1992)
Fun trivia: the bridge detonation was set off prematurely, before the cameras were rolling. They had to rebuild the entire thing and blow it up again. The debris you see flying past the actors is actual debris from the explosion.
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is Tucho's movie. No question.
The scene where the train runs over the chain was in deed very risky, Ely Wallach (Tuco) almost lost his head to the step of the last car
One has to admire Angeleyes' dedication and work ethic.
Once Upon a Time in the West next. Best one.
You should check out Once Upon a Time in West. Another of Sergio Leone's spaghetti western masterpiece.
Watching the orchestra perform the score is it’s own reward. I highly recommend it
Danish Symphony Orchestra
Yes
As much as I like TGTB&TU, I think Once Upon a Time in the West is Leone's masterpiece.
Without a doubt. TGTBATU gets all the glory but Once Upon a Time in The West was the ultimate Western. From the music to the acting it is a masterpiece. Every movie fan should see it at least once.
Agree
100% agree, once upon a time is my favourite western ever and has maybe the greatest score in film history
Western masterpiece perhaps. Once upon a Time in America is up there.
Once Upon a Time in America is underrated as well.
10:16 -- after Angel Eyes slaps Maria around, you said it was weird to see him like that. Actually, they had to get a stunt double for Lee Van Cleef because he refused to even act like he was hitting a woman. So, you're right on the money.
Fantastic movie, fantastic reaction!
Now that you're familiar with Ennio Morricone's score for this you MUST watch the Danish National Symphony Orchestra's live rendition of the two main themes!
Per carità!
The "If you're gonna shoot, shoot, don't talk" line was actually improvised by Eli Wallach (Tuco).
You should watch Sergio Leone's Once Upon A Time in the West with Henry Fonda & Charles Bronson 🙂
This could lead to a spirited debate but I feel Once Upon a Time in the West is an even better Leone film than this one even if it doesn't have Clint Eastwood in it. Once Upon a Time in the West is my all time favorite movie and a must watch for anyone interested in the art of movie making. It is an absoute perfect movie.
@@88wildcat It is. An so is Once Uoon a TIme in America, which is up there with the Godfather.
30:51 "fair enough." 👏🏼
respect.
Tuco is probably my favorite character in the whole trilogy. A deeply flawed and even annoying person, but it's easy to forgive because he's also highly competent.
"The poor guy's minus an eye," says the soldier with no legs. Absolutely love this movie.
Other westersn i recommend
Once Upon Aa Time In The West (1968) - also directed by Sergio Leone
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)
Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (1969)
The Ox-Bow Incident (1943)
Unforgiven (1992)
Tombstone (1993)
True Grit (2010)- one of the rare times where the remake is better than the original
The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford (2007)
Thank you!
If I could add, Hang Em High as well, another great Eastwood Westren. Think they'd enjoy a darker film honestly.
Butch cassidy & sundance kid is fantastic. If you like this you'll love that too
“The Outlaw Josey, Wales” “ High Plains drifter” Two of the best western ever.
I watched that in the theater when it was released. Remembering those days brings a tear to my eyes during the finale.
Once Upon a Time in the West. The greatest Western ever made, and possibly the best movie ever made.
My dad loved this movie, he watched this when he was a corporal in ny country's national police. We both were gun nerds. When Tuco assemblies his custom revolver... amazing scene. Colts were the first revolvers (and guns in general) mass produced with modern precision tooling so the spare parts were perfectly usable in any revolver of the right model, out of the shelf. In the case of other brands, they had to be adjusted by hand in the factory or shop, because they didn't have modern standard precision parts. It's amazing when Tuco hears at the drum clicking beautifully when he cocked the hammer. Great video, thanks for sharing. Subscribed!
The part where Tuco went into the gun shop , the director told him " Invent A Gun And Put One Together ". Tuco told him that he didn't know anything about guns. He put anything together in that scene😂
Good to see this trilogy getting some love!
How about, A Fistful Of Dynamite? Sometimes its called, Duck, You Sucker. A slightly insane James Cockburn spaghetti western, its a lot of fun
6:06 chunks of the list of crimes are sampled in Big Audio Dynamite's, Medicine Show.. moderately interesting fact!
Oh yes, another fantastic film & beautiful score by Morricone!
That's James Coburn.
@@dwgale01 he sure to have a seance to tell him
In the Trilogy, this is the first one, followed by A Fistful of Dollars and then For Few Dollars More. Actors appear as different characters similar to how they do in the Mad Max Trilogy.
30:38 "When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk." :)
34:44 "I've never seen so many men wasted so badly." :(
A little trivia on Sad Hill Cemetery. It's not a real cemetery like those in many movies. Sad Hill was built specifically for this movie. An undertaking so huge that members of the Spanish Army were brought in the help with it's construction. After filming, it was left to the elements. It became a place for fans of the movie to make pilgrimages to. But, it was withering away. Just a few years ago, a group of volunteers got together and began to restore it to it's movie quality. They succeeded and now it's a tourist destination. On the night of it's dedication, a screen was set up in the center of the cemetery and about 100 people got to watch the movie. Along with that, a video was made of several people congratulating the volunteers on their achievement, including Clint Eastwood himself. czcams.com/video/v8SfgVM3-eg/video.html
More Clint Westerns: The Outlaw Josey Wales, High Plains Drifter, Hang 'Em High.
One of my favorite films is "Where Eagles Dare" which is Clint's breakout role from westerns. It's almost the perfect action-adventure-spy-intrique-war movie with awesome locations, real snow, real explosions, and real/practical stunts.
$200 000 at the end of the Civil war is almost 4 million today. Back then that was retiring money
Clint is the star and Lee Van Cleef is the villain, but it's Eli Wallach's film. Iconic performance.
I really loved watching this with You Two. I've seen it many many times. But seeing it with you and hearing your thoughts on the movie made this extra special.
Rio Bravo,
The Magnificent Seven,
The Professionals,
Once Upon A Time In The West &
The Wild Bunch.
Those would be my next choices, enjoy!
Imagine being an actor and getting a call from your agent- "Yeh, they want you to play the role of The Ugly."
Tombstone and Unforgiven
The Outlaw Josey Wales, High Plains Drifter, or Pale Rider are other good Eastwood westerns
One of the greatest movies ever. ❤
Best moive of all time. Hands down.
Now you know where The Man With No Name acquired his poncho.
YESSSSSS!
This movie is a masterpiece.
It’s almost criminal, that Eli Wallach did not win the Oscar for his portrayal of TUCO!!!
15:34 - Consider that they actually wrote a draft for a sequel that was never produced (Sergio Leone wasn't interested) where Tuco, years later, is still hunting for Blondie, he finds out he's dead so he decides to go after Blondie's nephew or son to get revenge.
The 2nd movie is also my favourite. The cinematography is objectively better in the 3rd but the overall story of the second movie is just better and more relatable (we don't have to care for 2 bad guys, basically). The 1st movie was a rip-off so I don't like it.
13:57 subtle gasp with wide eyes. 😯
nice 👍🏼
Now you’ve got to watch the Danish National Symphony perform The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
L' orchestra di Ennio Morricone no?
I saw this movie for my first time today (June 1, 2024). I was not disappointed in the slightest. Even though I am not a fan of movies with exceptionally long run times, I will be the first to say that this was REALLY good!
The one Clint Eastwood Western , if you are only going to see one, is UNFORGIVEN. I consider this film one of the top 10 Westerns of All-Time
The director was upset, because the bridge was blown up before he called " Action !! ". They had to shoot the whole scene over again. And it took weeks to a month to build it back up😂😂
By far the best movie of the trilogy. And despite what some may say better that Once Upon A Time In The West though it is a good film too. Other Clint Eastwood westerns - Unforgiven, High Plains Drifter, The Outlaw Josey Wales. John Wayne westerns - The Searchers, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon, True Grit, The Shootist, and Rio Bravo. Other quality westerns - High Noon, Will Penny, Open Range, and Tombstone.
Face to face. The great silence
Once Upon a Time in the West definitely IS a masterpiece western directed by Sergio Leone after This movie.
The dubbed in speech of the Spanish actors inall three of the movies is the best i have ever heard. Really done well
OUATITW is a must ... because it was the last Leone's western, and the first of his "Once upon a time..." and is all you can ask.from a movie.
The Unforgiven is another must because is the way Clint Eastwood says western movies goodbye.
And I would say Robert Redford's Jeremiah Johnson... to good to be forgotten (as well as Paul Newman's and Redford's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid...)
Tarantino's western films... well that's up to you.
Loved this reaction, it’s one of my favorites! 😄 Blondie, Tuco and Angel Eyes are certainly the dynamic trio.
The opening scene with Angel Eyes was copied/referenced as an homage in Inglorious Bastards
Love me some Westerns, & this is right at the top with "Once Upon a Time in the West" (an absolute must watch).The dynamics between the three; the chaos of Tuco's life, & the mystery of Blondie & Sentenza's backgrounds makes this a classic. You asked which Clint western should be next, I suggest "The Outlaw Josey Wales"...one of his best I think. Follow that up with "High Plains Drifter"! Enjoyed your commentary, look forward to the next western!😊 [edit: these classics wouldn't be as good without the genius of Ennio Morricone, just beautifully haunting is his score. His partnership with Sergio Leone gave us some truly magnificent films]
In terms of classic film-camera era filmmaking, this has to be top ten. I don't actually rank art or have a top ten of film, but any conversation about great films has to include this. I watched all three of the Leonne Western classics when I was a kid and they immediately unlocked the idea of a powerful film made by a master director for me, as well as them being popular spectacles..
The skeleton in the grave of Arch Stanton is of an actress who made it clear in her lifetime that she wished her remains to appear in films after her death. Next Clint film? The Outlaw Josey Wales.
Tuco is the star 👍
This movie was filmed in Andalusia Spain….believe it or not southern Spain is dry and very humid in the summer…
An Italian director. The actor who plays " The Bad " was also in a John Carpenter film called " Escape From New York ". Also John Carpenter did " They Live".
There is another western that I think y'all would love. It's called "My Name is Nobody". Starring Terrance Hill and Henry Fonda.
True Grit(2010)
This was filmed in the late 60’s so there’s some commentary on war related to Vietnam. This isn’t exactly an anti Vietnam War movie but it’s probably sort of along with all wars.
Nice reactions & end summation, guys! Another good Clint Eastwood Western for you two to react to would be "High Plains Drifter". Thanks for the ride!
Please do "Once Upon a Time in the West"🙏🙏🙏
He didn't do it to make Tuco sweat. He did it because it's the only way he knew to share the gold and leave both alive. He didn't trust Tuco. Can you blame him ? He's the good, not the stupid.
FUN FACT: In “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” (1965) Tuco uncovers the grave of Arch Stanton and finds a skeleton in the coffin not the promised $200,000 he, Blonde and Angel Eyes have been looking for. Leone couldn’t get a prop skeleton to look the way he wanted it to look on film. He said he wish they could get a real skeleton, so set decorator Carlo Leva found out that a lady in Madrid had a real skeleton for hire. It was her mother's (who in life had been an actress) skeleton and before she died, she expressed the wish that her skeleton should be used in movies, so that her acting career could continue after death. Leva rented the skeleton and it is her real skeleton you see in the grave of Arch Stanton.
Tuco is also in The Magnificent Seven. Eli Wallace is a great Jewish American actor!
Wallach
The dusty the clean and the messy, film in the works now lol
The woman who played as the fresh wh#re in the territory is Jane Curtain...who also played in the movie Cone Heads as the mother.
Very. Nice movie. It's simple and natural I like your reaction
I'd recommend "High Plains Drifter," "The Outlaw Josey Wales," and "Hang 'Em High."
For me, it was the opposite with Lee Van Cleeve. I first saw him in this movie so it was weird seeing him as the good guys in a few dollars more. You should check out Yojimbo (and it's sequel Sanjuro), the basis for the (illegal) remake Fistful of Dollars and The Seven Samurai, the basis for The Magnificent Seven
Yojimbo itself was based on Dashiell Hammett's 1929 novel "Red Harvest". Akira Kurosawa also adapted the Shakespeare play "King Lear" into the epic samurai movie, Ran, in 1985. In Japanese it means chaos.
Once Upon A Time In The West with Henry Fonda
I go back and forth which of the three is my favorite. Tuco though ... What a brilliant character. RIP Eli Wallach.
Great! You're finally back to movie reactions... 😊 It's been months since the last movie reaction. 😢
You should do the best of them all,
Duck you Sucker/A fist Full Of Dynamite,
Very underrated…
10:36 "dang. rude." -sarah
I watched a few reactions of this movie and most American reactors love tuco😅😅😅
Blondie rode off to become the Outlaw Josey Wales.
For other Clint Eastwood films, I'd recommend "The Outlaw Josie Wales", and "The Unforgiven".
There's a story that when Eli Wallach was using the train to cut his chains, a part of the train missed his head by only a few inches.
You might note that Blondie, Tuco, and Angel Eyes all manage to cross the river after the bridge has been blown up. So really, the bridge wasn't needed, except maybe to get wagons across. So why was everyone fighting over it ?
It was a strategic crossing for the army's involved, but it was also close to the cemetery. Troops were all over both sides of the bridge, so they needed everyone to go away. Once the bridge was gone, there was no reason for the battle to stay in that particular area. You wouldn't want to be caught digging up military graves, with soldiers everywhere.
You can't cross a river with cannon and trunks full of ammo without a bridge.
I recommend "A big hand for the little lady". It has a plot twist you will not expect.
If you figure each dollar was a one ounce gold coin, 200,000 gold coins is worth $396,809,650.41 today.
You guys are fun.
This movie is where he first started wearing a Poncho...from the Confederate soldier scene 😊 he gave his jacket to.😊
(Class of 71)
24:49 i wonder how they trained the fly. 🤔
They didn't train it. It was probably just in the shot😂
@@MikeBarratt-lk3gt an uncredited cameo 😆
Here is a little movie fact when they had the bridge wired to explode someone accidentally thought they said blow it and blew it up without the cameras rolling,so they had to rebuild the bridge to get the shot
Also Clint Eastwood was nearly hit in head by shrapnel when bridge was blown and a part of a rock nearly hit him had he moved when they got into the trench he would have been killed as was Eli Wallach when was laying by the train had he moved the step would have decapitated him.
US Civil War in Arizona and New Mexico territory. For real. That desert in NM is called Jornada del Muerto. My Civil War ancestors were lucky to be captured, and then survive the POW camps.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
Big Audio Dynamite uses parts of the Theme & excerpts of the film in their song Medicine Show, from 1986.
The best western ever made.
