this is the song id play when i finally aproach the dinner table with a hand gun and break it to her that im not gonna eat her meat loaf anymore after all these years of being quiet and terrorized!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Skelex20 What we hear from 4.56 onwards is the actual middle segment of the track heard in the movie as I discussed in my earlier post. Before that, (0.00 - 4.55) we hear the track from the Original Soundtrack released when this movie came out. But here, both have been joined as one and this of course, is not how we hear it in the movie. These are two versions of The Trio put together as one.
@Skelex20 You are right. This track is different. At 2.25, after the trumpet suddenly stops, we hear the acoustic guitar taking over, but in the movie the guitar is replaced by Ennio's trademark, that is, the eerie sound effects of the vulture, followed by the pocket watch chimes, the percussive echoes and the kettle drum. Then the trumpet continues as it does here at 3.50 but only till 4.24, when the trumpet is again replaced by an urgent orchestral passage which ends abruptly with the draw.
Just wondering, is this a different mix from about 2:40 onwards to the one that's used in the DVD? It's also used in the first few clips of the duel on here, is this the original then?
You sir, are the most interesting man in the world. I agree, working in an office has robbed me of my manhood. Hearing this tune, reminds me of what could be if I were indeed a man instead of a soft, pasty office dweller.
I always liked this song the most. I think that "Ecstay of Gold" is very good (legendary), but compared to "the Trio", it is overrated. "The Trio" is mostly overlooked when people think of this Soundtrack.
Fantastic...brilliant...timeless...epic. This masterpiece should be preserved so future generations can marvel at a piece of cinematic majesty. No matter how many times I see it its never enough.
I accidentally found this version in a torrent a long time ago, then the computer crashed and i lost it...now i can't find it anywhere...any sources? please. links?
I think that this is the best soundtrack of ever, epic and touching. Moreover, in the film the synchronicity between audio and video is simply perfect, with a lot of exciting and ironic moments. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly is one of the most important experiences of my life! =)
2 people are both deaf and blind. They couldn't hear the epic music and they didn't see the nice picture in the video either, since that alone deserves a like.
I just had the chance to watch this movie on the big screen here in Finland, and what can you say? Well, first of all I have to say its a spectacle and hands down the best movie experience I have ever had in my life. It seemed so perfect in every way. Great characters, great dialogue, perfect acting, an exciting and brilliant, but yet so simple plot, great visuals, some nice action and as the icing on the cake the best film score ever produced. Superior entertainment.
Oh and I forgot to use the word EPIC!!!! I mean, this film should be the definition of epic. In wikipedia it should say, Epic: watch "the Good, the Bad and the Ugly". The first thing I wanted to do after the film ended was watch it again! Then I wanted to listen to Ennio Morricones fantastic music!
@azulguapa They are like a piece of me man when I walk in the desert I hear this music, and smell the air after a desert rain and I can feel its beauty. absolutely amazing... A piece of me forever.
@azulguapa but all people want these days in a movie are more explosions than if the cold war had become hot. people don't care about story line and emotions anymore
This is one of the best scores I have ever had the pleasure of gracing my ears... It's long, it's strong and binds three souls into one pot... The end is the best thing I have ever heard...!
My dad introduced me to this film, and i think it really the best film ever created! Cast is brilliant, story is amazing and the soundtacks are just breath-taking! This is the best soundtrack, especially at the end!
I was introduced to this soundtrack at 9yrs old. to this day over 30 yrs later i still love it. it is lost on todays youth they cannot appreciate the talent. all i can do is try to get my kids to learn to appreciate it.
I saw this film as a teenager in '67 or '68. But it was the music + showdown that has effected me always. it never gets too old to watch, and it glues you to you seat if you are lucky enough to view a screening in a real movie theatre,.
true, everything you hear here is from the movie, but play the real clipand play this, they will not sync because the " for a few dollars more " excerpt comes earlier. Though, I must say, if i want to have a Mexican standoff ill be sure to bring my ipod with me and have the song going through my head LOL
agree agree - listening to it blows you away - watching it keeps you on the edge of your seat, heart pounding, palms sweaty - no matter how many times you've watched! ;-)
i know Blondie is also known as "Joe" (Fistful of Dollars) and "Monco" (Few Dollars More), and Angel Eyes is also known as "Sentenza", but what about Tuco? what weird italian name does he have that's never used in the english version?
Tuco's nickname is The Rat. The Pig in the original Italian version and European + Japanese dub. As for his full name, it's Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan María Ramírez. So not really an alternate, unless you cound the whole Pig Rat issue thing.
You forgot other names. Blondie is also known as "The Man With No Name" and "The Good". Lee Van Cleef's name in For a Few Dollars More was "Colonel Douglas Mortimer" and I believe Blondie also called him "Old Man", and of course he's "The Bad" in the third film but it's uncertain if the two are actually the same character. And Tuco is "The Ugly". Eli Wallach, who played Tuco, was the one who actually came up with the nickname of Angel Eyes for Lee Van Cleef's character on set.
Clint Eastwood gets the poncho in "the Good the Bad and the Ugly", so it would have to come before "Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More". That means the Colonel and Angel Eyes are two different people (not to mention their personas are drastically different).
Maybe they're identicle twins like Lee Van Cleef played in God's Gun. But, yeah, they probably are two different characters. The main villian in For A Few Dollars More was played by the same actor as the main villian in A Fistful Of Dollars even though he died in the first one so Leone doesn't seem to care much about having the same actor play two different parts. Plus Leone originally wanted Charles Bronson to play The Bad. But Bronson got to be Harmonica, so everybody wins.
I'd like to add, from what I've read, The Man With No Name was supposed to be two completely different characters in "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More" because of a successful lawsuit. I think what happened was that Leone was supposed to comply but he didn't. I think the only slight change we see with the character is the "Joe" and "Manco". But at least thats what I think. Lol.
Western has nothing to do with the story taking place in the Old West of the United States, it's all about how the story is told, characters and the general (not exact) environment surrounding them, and since this DOES take place in the Old West you should now that the world outside the film has no relevance as to what goes on in the film itself.

What does it matter whether it`s filmed in Italy or wherever?
For instance "Spartacus" was not filmed on the Apennines peninsula - does it mean that it was not a movie concerning the history of Ancient Rome?
Or maybe they filmed "Star Wars" in space ?
That`s why GBU is the best WESTERN of all times!

I can't imagine how exiting this must have been to see on the big screen in -66.

@Loserido i can tell you that it was far better than seeing it on a TV. these films were made for a large screen.
