Lee van Cleef versus the Hunchback

[ConcreteSurfer420]

ima kill this little man with my little gun!

[GBPaddling]

Koll-en-ell

[Neuroneos]

When I enter a crowded room, I often say " Tequila for all of us ".

[funkmasterjee]

" I generally smoke AFTER I eat, why don't ya come back in ten minutes " ....XD Hilarious

[Heritagius]

That has got to be the greatest line from any Western, ever:

"..In ten minutes, you'll be smokin' in Hell..."

[metairie33]

wonder if lee is faster than esatwood

[MatijaSto]

@metairie33 Actually he was, it took him less frames to draw, cock and shoot.

[metairie33]

@MatijaSto yeah i saw that he was faster on the set but i mean the way the movies potrays them i still think there both faster than cort from the quick and the dead

[MatijaSto]

@metairie33 Well, I'd say Van Cleef's (Colonel) character is the fastest of all characters in Dollars trilogy, it's obviously shown that he is more skilled then Man With No Name, when they have a standoff in the town. (Where they shoot each other's hats off). Colonel obviously demonstrates superior skill and accuracy.

[PathGrinder]

@MatijaSto

Then why he got shot by the man with no name in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly? lol

[Rambo4President]

@MatijaSto

That's because he uses a gun that looks longer than a sniper rifle. Clint can't compete with his Colt Single Action Army.

[roundypie]

I didn't mind you striking a match against my face, its the shit in your pipe that you wouldn't share that pissed me off.

[planetrockford]

Humpty Dumptyi had a great fall.

[Mpoconnor7]

"I generally smoke just after I eat, why don't you come back in about ten minutes?" One of the greatest put downs in film history.

[chargonchar]

"hunchback" my ass. the man is KLAUS KINSKI a legend!

[nanakii85]

2 people have hunchbacks

[2706588]

@nanakii85 ROFL!

[MrSmokingfrog]

Is it me or is it just funny to hear Indio's grunt at 1:48, telling VanCleef to put away the guns. XD

[Analfracture]

Tequila for all of us.

[StanBennet]

Is Paul Frees the voice of Indio?

[boblackey1]

@StanBennet No his name is Bernard Grant. He dubbed Gian Maria Volonte who spoke Italian in several films for US release including Fistfull of Dollars and Investigation Above Suspicion. He also is the voice of the Union Captain at the "blow up the bridge" scene in Good, Bad and Ugly. And his wife dubbed Claudia Cardinale in "Once Upon a Time in the West" because it was decided that her Italian accent was to strong. She did her own voice in the original Italian version of the film.

[StanBennet]

@boblackey1 You don't know how I appreciate this. I've been wondering for years and after seeing Gian in his own Italian movies, I knew that wasn't his voice. So let me ask you this, when or how did you find out Bernard Grant did the voice of Indio? I did so much searching and never came up with anything.

[boblackey1]

@StanBennet I person I met online in LA years ago, Tom Betts, is an authority on Italian westerns and posts on those boards regularly. He told me it was Bernie Grant and his wife Joyce Gordon did the voice for Claudia Cardinale in Once Upon A Time in the West by Sergio Leone. He and his wife worked in New York on many Soap Operas also. I Googled Benard Grant and found the info that confirmed Grant usually dubbed Volonte in English in most of his films.

[RazielGhostwalk1]

It looks like the bar in Chuparosa (Red Dead Redemption) !

[littlbigtree]

LEE VAN CLEEF, Y U SO BADASS???

[FBIRyan]

At first I was watching ponies in a sexual way.

But now I'm watching Lee van Cleef KICK ASS!!

[sokkerking12345]

I was just trying to look at ponies.... I end up here?

[CCDarkable]

BOOM

Ponies.

The End.

[MrOmgitscheese]

how do i got from ponies to here?

[catbird007]

 LOL... all the food is cut into big hunks

[PikPobedy]

I always get hungry when the charactuers are eating in these westerns.

[shire2005]

Kinski played in another classic Italian western with another classic director. Sergio Corbucci directed him in the film "The great silence". His character is really evil in that one.

[onthegoldenline]

Cucillo! Count to three.....

[JmariolinkJ]

Wow~ The Hunchback played Nosferatu in "Nosferatu the Vampyre"! He was in a western?

[captainbackflash]

@JmariolinkJ He, Klaus Kinski, Was everywhere. He was the most feared Interviewpartner in the german tv. He a very very bad reputation on giving interviews and as a talk show host. Look for Klaus Kinski here on youtube or for the film "Aguirre the wrath of god" and you will see hin in action. Btw. he was a marvelous actor.

[JmariolinkJ]

@captainbackflash Wow, so WAY more to this guy than I knew. Thanks, I'll check it out later :)

[BaalsJurisdiction]

el indio is just too fucking badass I wan't him to be my grandfather

[Houseofthe7gayboys]

Hunchback gets no respect....

[lewartoff]

Klaus Kinski ...!

[elvakaffe]

Epic.



[cabbyman0001]

i had a hunch that would happen lol

[Makseme]

the best film............

[tigerarmyrule]

I generally smoke just after I eat....I mean how cool is that?

[MyBaselable]

...strange thing LvC has suddenly a pistole in his right hand, there is not seen a movement on his jacket or even the pistolebelt...at 1:36 he has a pistole out of nowhere ..

[philqw78]

@MyBaselable The pistol is a deringer, concealed in a small spring loaded holster up his sleeve. It may have been cheating, if as a killer you cared, but they did exist.

[Frederik5495]

the crazy hunchback there called "klaus kinzki" one of germany's greatest actors ever lived..greetings from germany! :)

[lilcaitz]

i've always had the biggest crush on clint, pwoaaaaaaar!

[blackonics]

@lilcaitz Then you must love Hugh Jackman..who owes his entire acting career to that fact that he is nothing more than a younger version of Clint Eastwood, without the acting chops. The moment I saw jackman I knew he would be a star.

[nerad1994]

ive seen a fistfull of $'s and the good the bad and the ugly but never this one! i really need to see this

[TheRandomSweed]

Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef & Klaus Kinski, cant get any better. Saw a few of those old Italian Spaghetti westerns that Lee did after the Leone period. Loved everyone of them. R.I.P Van Cleef & Klaus Kinski.

P.S Anyone who has not seen the Werner Herzog doc "My Best Fiend" about Klaus Kinski should definitly check it out. He was a wild one. D.S

[bazzatheblue]

The great Kinski and Van Cleef,awesome.Shame they are both gone.

[lleho]

Klaus Kinski is the hunchback.

[SoftandFluffy]

Simply brilliant. Cleef is awesome delivering that classic line. People tend to overlook Klaus Kinski who also helped make the scene what it is....a classic. One of the best duels prior to film end along with Clint and his upset mule, Bronson at the train station and Cheyanne (jason Robards) causing havoc on Mr Mortons train - fistfull of dollars and once upon a time in the west for latter two....check 'em out.

[vSportGaming]

Lee Van Cleef = My favourite Cowboy of all time

[stevenh915]

klaus kinskie ( spelling probably wrong) was the hunch back, look up his daughter natasha! she is a total fox! well i think so anyway!

[robertgift]

Another great scene!

Did he merely shoothe gun out of "Strike Anywhere's" hands?

[MrShaziman]

" I generally smoke after I eat. Why don't you come back in 10 minutes?" What a classic line! Lee Van Cleef, you ROCK! man. Which villain could have done it better? We love you Lee Van Cleef... We honestly do. It's sad you are no longer with us but may God be with you wherever you are. You are gone but NEVER will you ever be forgotten.

[feldspardelta21]

@MrShaziman

but he wasn't the villain in this one :P, if anything he was the hero.

[MrShaziman]

@feldspardelta21 Yes, you are absolutely correct. My mistake. Thanks for pointing it out.

[TheGuinnessboys]

the mans very insecure about the hunch on his back loll

[tsunchoo]

can never get tired of watching these class-acts..masterful all-round

[NBAMW2]

The only dislike was from the Hunchback

[StanBennet]

I love how these actors were all interchangeable. Enemies in one film, and then violent partners in the next.

[Paranoidave]

A greeat, great scene in a great,great movie

[Infernalhermit]

@Paranoidave

The whole damn trilogy is awesome.

[StanBennet]

Who was the voice of Indio in this?

[MrSwanley]

@StanBennet I believe it's Volonte's own voice. I remember reading that his contract required him to do the English dub himself, though he had to be fed the lines because he couldn't actually speak English. I think it helps though because he still understood the emotion of the scene and no doubt had a sense of the words. I particularly like his line later in the movie when he says "try to shoot me Colonel... just try".

[datsome80]

Klaus Kinski was offered a role as major Toht in 'Raiders'. he called the scrit 'moronicly shitty'. shame.

[bullss21]

What would've made this scene hilarious is if the hunchback said, "Cochillio... count to three..."

Cochillio: "I don't know how." LOL

[Houseofthe7gayboys]

@bullss21 Nah, he a scholar...would've asked, "In English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese?"

[thehellboundheart007]

Van Cleef and Kinski wicked combination.

[pjicleanair420]

Love when he struck match on his hunchback, and then used his cigar to light pipe

[PikPobedy]

Come back in ten minutes.

[pyro80]

KINSKI

[dermotoblong]

'i like to smoke just after i've eaten' an absolute classic

[STON3SL1VEMU5IC]

Just a masterpiece of cinematography one of my westerns :D

[hugodrax71]

contender for scene of the century! Leone is a genius

[Rambo4President]

Klaus Kinski, Gian Maria Volontè, Clint Eastwood, Lee van Cleef... Man, those are LEGENDS! Volontè looks badass in this movie... his eyes are SICK!

[WalterLiddy]

@Rambo4President It's too bad they dub over Kinski's voice though - accent or no it would be better with his own performance.

[joseluisnewyork]

Thats the way to solve problems one to one, face to face and quick, this world is not for stupids, slow guys or gays that solve problems paying a lawyer.

[gerry1976]

In 10 Minutes you'll be smoking in Hell

[videotitan1]

I would like to to stick an ice pick on that Hunchback to see who much yellow pus it has.

[GhostOfBugsy]

"Well, if it isn't the smoker!" lol

[Shine5757]

MEMORABLE !!! On fait malheureusement pas des films comme ça en france

[costadelsilencio08]

the part when he says , ' i generally smoke just after i eat , why dont you come back in about 10 minutes ' it's hilarious

[gerry1976]

The Cameras used in these movies were Panavision, look how great they look. Movies today should go back to these cameras they look amazing on clarity.

[1000canibal]

@nutwrench Nice ... this scene from the movie is very fast that almost no one can see that.

[MinisterKGB]

I always loved Van Cleef

[hugodrax71]

sadly the building where this scene was filmed is now a ruin

[1000canibal]

In this scene I ask where the Colonel can pull that gun from him, was hidden in his clothes?

[malcolmjohnmcneill]

@1000canibal he's got it up his sleeve

[RoadNasty]

@1000canibal Yes, it was in Mortimer's sleeve - he dropped it down to his hand via some type of trigger release.

[SuperHeroMania]

Van Cleef is the boss! But why isn't anybody parising Klaus Kinski? Klaus Kinski is fucking awesome, and he's one of the most underrated actors of all time with Lee Van Kleef

[TonyMarco1948]

Lee was in High Noon, one of the outlaw gang.

[TonyMarco1948]

A masterpeice of cinema. Why isn't this film up there with Godfather etc? Music, casting, camerawork, perfect.

[tillman40]

Give me Van Cleef and Eastwood....you can have Depp and Damon

[FormalStudiesCZ]

Actually it is Hot today in Southwest Georgia. That Cold Tequila Looks Good ! LOL

[MrClean3381]

well...that wasn't a fair duel if you ask me

[Wodanaz]

Greatest Spaghetti Western hero of all time. Oddly mostly remembered as a villain in the US (due to GB&U mainly) but as an action hero in Europe, especially with Spaghetti Western Fans.

[LightStijn]

Lee Van Cleef isn't the only extremely talented actor in this scene. That's Klaus Kinski you're watching here, god damn it.

[Wodanaz]

@LightStijn Agreed Klaus Kinski is a great actor. He was great in many SWs and in Herzog films. People should check out 'My Best Fiend' by Werner Herzog.

[downhill240]

Someone should start a movement to get Lee a lifetime achievement award. Lee wouldn't care where it came from either. He's act at the drop of a hat.

[0Serf0]

I love the total carelessness for apologies in this movie.

Its like instead of asking him "Please put your gun down.." He simply said.. "Hm-hmm!" LOLL!!!!! @ 1:47

[praetorianus72]

Well, Well, the smoker

[Destroyermetal22]

remember me, amigo?

[MrJgmax]

.........CUCHILLO, knife in spanish.

[anton1990]

I am alone in thinking Lee van Cleef would have made a great Count Dracula? In the novel he is describe having a hawnose, a mustasche and steely eyes. He had it all. He could be cold as ice too ^^ Kinski, who's in this scene, was also a good Dracula.

[Wodanaz]

@anton1990 Actually it seems like a weird choice for Dracula, but when you think longer, yes he would make a great Dracula. And Jack Palance made a good Dracula, he is in westerns roles usually, as is Klaus Kinski who played a great Dracula.

[ECWluis]

the hunchback is klaus kinski a german actor, well known by his role in aguirre the wrath of god. he can speak english and español, very impresive i didnt notice the 1st time i saw him in that movie.

[fullstrutn]

he was almost comical in Bonanza

[catbird007]

I want to ride with El Indio and his gang

[MasterMacLeod]

@catbird007 You have to go to some time between 1865 and 1885.

[BaronBlood138]

ive seen this moovie at least 800 times yet every time vancleef says to come back in ten minutes i crack up

[taco1030]

2:10 man love the look on clint eastwoods face man

[usernamen]

I never understood why they made Kinski a hunchback in this film.

He would have been perfectly fine just as he is...

[FullMagAirsoft]

i think Lee just got mad that the hunchback's hunchback ruined his appetite

[TonyMarco1948]

Take that hunchback.

[KhmerSerey1]

Cuchillo gets the honor of counting,because he's the only one among them that can count up to three,Cuchillo finish basic math in school before he became a bandidos.Cuchillo is an outlaw with logics.Cuchillo is smart in math..

[NeilLB7]

The best part of this was when Van Cleef said he didn't remember him and went back about his business eating supper. Then a further insult of telling him to come back in 10 min. GREAT!!

[stadioazteca]

best scene in this fantastic film...we should be so thankful Leone spotted Van Cleef's talent when US filmmakers were ignoring him. I believe he was working as a painter in LA when he won the role as Col Mortimer. Van Cleef proved he could be a superb Western star and deserved the fame (and fortune) that came late in his career.

[yooperlooper]

Well put, my friend. I've thought that Van Cleef's talent was way underrated for a long time. I also didn't know that he made over 40 films in Europe in about 2 years - after this one and The GB&U - they were not all class A films, but his acting in them was always top notch. He became quite a sensation in Europe - a big star. I'm glad he was appreciated. Cheers.

[zippitydoobeedoo]

El Indio drinks with his little pinky up in the air (:13)

[Wodanaz]

@zippitydoobeedoo Yes El Indio likes to think he is cultured. I think El Guapo was mostly a spoof of El Indio.

[swamigal]

lol

[swamigal]

the man with a hump got owned

[yooperlooper]

Hunch didn't stand a chance!

[CRAZOLA3]

no he did'nt

[Dakamum]

Hunchback: " Well, well. Remember me Amigo?"
