The people who watch the soaps go to the people who don't watch the soaps and say "you gotta watch this dross" so the film people make the change, ah? Then the people who watch the soaps sit around on their plastic sofas and talk and talk and talk and eat and eat and eat...but what has happened to the film people?

THEY'RE BORED!

So please, don't talk to me about soap operas...

[Shellmanx]

Rod Steiger's acting here brings tears to my eyes - perfectly timed, passionate and truthful. A masterclass from a true artist.

When you live with the most disgusting regime imaginable, a revolution always manages to make things even worse. Thats a very hard truth, a hard pill to swallow for us revolutionaries.

[polmas]

I don't want to sound arrogant, but the people who like these movies are the hope of the world.

[Pssybart]

Revolutions and socialism in a nut shell.

One of the reasons why this is such an overlooked film is because of the censorship. In the US, nearly all references to socialism were cut but those references were very misunderstood. This scene really tells us what Sergio wanted us to understand: 'Revolutions never turn out the way you want them to!'

[Conchobhar]

@Pssybart I don't think there's any comment on a specific ideology. If you'll watch all the scenes with the fascist military regime and what they're doing it's not siding with either the right or left and Leone has stated as much.

[Pssybart]

@Conchobhar I know and that's what I mean with misunderstood. While Leone clearly reflects his bad experiences of Italy's Facist regime, he's not glorifying revolutions and Socialism either. That's basically what the Title: Duck, You Sucker! or Giu la Testa means. "Keep your head down, the revolution is coming!"

Leone also said that the film itself had very little to do with the real Mexican Revolution. The revolution is a metaphor, the film is actually about friendship.

A magnificent moment from a classic film. Saw it at the drive-in on a double bill with another film starring James Coburn,THE HONKERS,in the Summer of 1972.

[RobMacRay]

This scene spells out the main theme of the movie: keep your head down when the revolution comes along. Otherwise you will lose your family, friends and even yourself.

A perfect crescendo of music, acting and story. Beautiful stuff.

The tunes are so great

[1994breeno7]

@dem1991boy5 you are spot on pal

[fachobuster]

magnifique...

[marcusgael]

Beautifully crafted scene. It does't get much better than this. Such a great shame we do not see this quality of filmmaking today. It's all CGI and paper thin characterisation.

If this isn't the truth than I don't know what is!!
