| One of the greatest WesternsA trio of outlaws (Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, and Eli Wallach) crosses paths in a search for $200,000 of buried Confederate gold. As they travel, sometimes alone and sometimes together, across a surreal landscape made anarchic by war, director Sergio Leone presents a world in which all of man's finer instincts and civilized institutions seem to have failed. Our three protagonists keep faith in one thing only--the existence of treasure at the end of their quest--and they go to heroic lengths in service of that faith. Leone's despairing vision is fascinating, and as an action movie, it is just downright terrific.
came quicklycame well before the delivery date. haven't watched it yet, so i can't comment on quality of product. the dvd was plain silver.
Wish the original US release edit was in the box too.I love The Good the Bad & the Ugly (along with all Leone's Westerns) but the 2-disc Collector's edition disappointed me. I was excited to see the extra footage that was in the original Italian version but after seeing it I quickly ran out and bought the older (original US version) DVD because the dubbing of Older Clint & Eli on the new scenes took me completely out of the movie (although I commend their efforts). To me it stands out like a sore thumb when you suddenly hear old mens voices coming from the young faces & I truly wonder if Leone would have wanted it released like this knowing it would sound like this. I wish they would have simply included the previous 'Original US release' cut without all the extra footage but with all the great color correction & sound mix. Hopefully in the future & on the Blu-Ray.
5 stars for the movie - 1 star for the actors voice dubbing in the new scenes.
The good,the bad,and the uglyI received my order within a few days of placing my order and in excellent condition.I highly recommend this seller.
The Good, the Bad and the UglyAs always another excellent Eastwood movie. A must see. Fast shipping. Sent just as ordered.
DescriptionBy far the most ambitious, unflinchingly graphic and stylistically influential western ever mounted, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is an engrossing actioner shot through with a volatile mix of myth and realism. Clint Eastwood returns as the "Man With No Name," this time teaming with two gunslingers (Eli Wallach and Lee Van Cleef) to pursue a cache of $200,000and letting no one, not even warring factions in a civil war, stand in their way. From sun-drenched panoramas to bold,hard close-ups, exceptional camera work captures the beauty and cruelty of the barren landscape andthe hardened characters who stride unwaveringly through it. Forging a vibrant and yet detached style of action that had not been seen before, and has never been matched since, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly shatters the western mold in true Clint Eastwood style.
Amazon.com essential videoClint Eastwood (the Man with No Name) is good, Lee Van Cleef (Angel Eyes Sentenza) is bad, and Eli Wallach (Tuco Benedito Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez) is ugly in the final chapter of Sergio Leone's trilogy of spaghetti westerns (the first two were A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More). In this sweeping film, the characters form treacherous alliances in a ruthless quest for Confederate gold. Leone is sometimes underrated as a director, but the excellent resolution on this digital video disc should enhance appreciation of his considerable photographic talent and gorgeous widescreen compositions. Ennio Morricone's jokey score is justifiably famous.
