In the Southwest during the Civil War, a mysterious stranger, Joe (Clint Eastwood), and a Mexican outlaw, Tuco (Eli Wallach), form an uneasy partnership -- Joe turns in the bandit for the reward money, then rescues him just as he is being hanged. When Joe's shot at the noose goes awry during one escapade, a furious Tuco tries to have him murdered. The men re-team abruptly, however, to beat out a sadistic criminal and the Union army and find $20,000 that a soldier has buried in the desert.
FILM REVIEW - The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
Michael Wilmington - Chicago Tribune
"An improbable masterpiece -- a bizarre mixture of grandly operatic visuals, grim brutality and sordid violence that keeps wrenching you from one extreme to the other."
Roger Ebert - Chicago Sun-Times
"Art it is, summoned out of the imagination of Leone and painted on the wide screen so vividly that we forget what marginal productions these films were." To read the full review, CLICK HERE.
