Watched this again yesterday and i think it has been about twenty years since i last saw it.Man i love Tuco  Without him i do not think it would have been half the movie it was. Did a bit of reading about it as i me and the lady who watched it were wondering if the graveyard was real or not. Apparently 250 spanish soldiers built it over two days , plus the bridge scene, they had to build and blow it twice as the first time, none of the three cameras were filming ! A lot of cool facts about the movie, the cast the production and the music score here T G T B T U

Lee Van Cleef is just pure awesome. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is one of my favorite films of all time.

Yeah it definitely has to rate right up there for me too. I watched Downfall again last night so it rounded out some good dvd time for the weekend.I have no idea why i decided to give U571 another chance though , simply terrible in nearly every way.Poor plot, bad acting, crap looking scenes..ugh.The dvd skipped so at least i will get to swap it for another, one upside

Spaghetti Westerns, the hallmark of Sergio. Love them all.

The funniest line in that movie is when Harvey Keitel's character shouts frantically "The instruments are all in German!" when they first take over the U-Boat.

Did you know Charles Bronson turned down the role Eastwood ended up with? It was based on Bronson's How the West was Won harmonica man, cape and all.

LOL, but it is well known that the average audience hates movies in original version.
