The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is a 1966 Italian epic Spaghetti Western film directed by Sergio Leone, starring Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, and Eli Wallach in the title roles respectively. The screenplay was written by Age & Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni, and Leone (with additional screenplay material provided by an uncredited Sergio Donati),[5] based on a story by Vincenzoni and Leone. Director of photography Tonino Delli Colli was responsible for the film's sweeping widescreen cinematography and Ennio Morricone composed the film's score, including its main theme. It was a co-production between companies in Italy, Spain, West Germany, and the United States.
The film is known for Leone's use of long shots and close-up cinematography, as well as his distinctive use of violence, tension, and stylistic gunfights. The plot revolves around three gunslingers competing to find fortune in a buried cache of Confederate gold amid the violent chaos of the American Civil War (specifically the New Mexico Campaign in 1862), while participating in many battles and duels along the way. The film was the third collaboration between Leone and Clint Eastwood, and the second with Lee Van Cleef.

The film was a financial success, grossing over $25 million at the box

the time, critical reception of the film following its release was
mixed, but it gained critical acclaim in later years. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is now seen as a highly influential example of the Western film genre and one of the greatest films of all time.
Synopsis Film
During the American Civil War, mercenary Angel Eyes interrogates former Confederate soldier Stevens about Bill Carson, a fugitive who stole a cache of Confederate gold.
Stevens offers Angel Eyes $1,000 to kill Baker, Angel Eyes's employer.
Angel Eyes accepts the contract, and kills Stevens as he leaves. Angel
Eyes returns to Baker for his fee, then shoots Baker, fulfilling his
contract with Stevens.
Meanwhile, Mexican bandit Tuco Ramírez is rescued from three bounty hunters by "Blondie",
who delivers him to the local sheriff to collect his $2,000 bounty. As
Tuco is about to be hanged, Blondie shoots Tuco's noose and sets him
free. The two escape on horseback and split the bounty in a lucrative
money-making scheme. As Blondie grows weary of Tuco's complaints, he
abandons him penniless in the desert.
Tuco survives and tracks Blondie to a town being abandoned by Confederate troops. As he prepares to kill Blondie, Union
forces shell the town, allowing Blondie to escape. Following an arduous
search, Tuco recaptures Blondie and force-marches him across a desert
until Blondie collapses from dehydration. As Tuco prepares to shoot
him, he sees a runaway carriage. Inside is a delirious Bill Carson, who
promises Tuco $200,000 in Confederate gold, buried in a grave in Sad
Hill Cemetery. When Tuco returns with water, Carson is dead and Blondie,
slumped next to him, reveals that he knows the name on the grave.
Tuco and Blondie travel to a frontier mission,
disguising themselves as Confederate soldiers. After Blondie's
recovery, the two leave in their Confederate uniforms, only to be
captured by Union soldiers and remanded to the POW camp of Batterville. At roll call, Tuco answers for "Bill Carson," getting the attention of Angel Eyes, now a disguised Union sergeant
at the camp. Angel Eyes tortures Tuco, who reveals the name of the
cemetery, but confesses that only Blondie knows the name on the grave.
Realizing that Blondie will not yield to torture, Angel Eyes offers him
an equal share of the gold and a partnership. Blondie agrees and rides
out with Angel Eyes and his gang. Tuco is packed on a train to be
executed, but escapes.
Blondie, Angel Eyes, and his henchmen arrive in an evacuated town.
Tuco, having fled to the same town, takes a bath in a ramshackle hotel
and is surprised by Elam, a bounty hunter searching for him. Tuco shoots
Elam. Blondie investigates the gunshots and finds Tuco, and they agree
to resume their old partnership. The pair kill Angel Eyes's men, but
discover that Angel Eyes himself has escaped.
Tuco and Blondie travel to Sad Hill, now held by Confederate troops
on one side of a strategic bridge against the advancing Union troops.
Blondie decides to destroy the bridge to disperse the two armies to
allow access to the cemetery. As they wire the bridge with explosives,
Tuco suggests they share information, in case one person dies before he
can help the other. Tuco reveals the name of the cemetery, while
Blondie reveals the name on the grave as "Arch Stanton." After the
bridge explodes, the armies disperse, and Tuco steals a horse and rides
to Sad Hill to claim the gold for himself. He finds Arch Stanton's grave
and begins digging. Blondie arrives and encourages him at gunpoint to
continue. A moment later, Angel Eyes surprises them both, also at
gunpoint. Blondie opens Stanton's grave, revealing just a skeleton.
Blondie writes the real name of the grave on a rock and, placing it
facedown in an area full of similar rocks, silently challenges Tuco and
Angel Eyes to a three-way duel.
The trio stare each other down. Everyone draws, and Blondie shoots
and kills Angel Eyes, while Tuco discovers that his own gun was unloaded
by Blondie the night before. Blondie directs him to a grave beside Arch
Stanton's marked "Unknown." Inside are bags of gold. Tuco is initially
elated, until Blondie orders him into a hangman's noose
beneath a tree. Blondie binds Tuco's hands and forces him atop an
unsteady grave marker, takes half the gold and rides away. As Tuco
screams at him, Blondie returns into sight. Blondie severs the rope with
a rifle shot, dropping Tuco, alive and angry, onto his share of the
gold, before riding off into the horizon.
