2 of my sgt's saw their friend die in war, one of the said quote "You will never escape the sight of the soldier every day you will see his face and every day you will hear his voice everyday and it will stay with you forever" my pother sgt knew someone who had to write a letter home to the parents of a dead soldier and he said "Nothing is more depressing that that, it is the single most lonely feeling in all the world."
Possibly the one scene in the movie where Blondie shows he's not like the other two - they all want the money, but here Blondie truly gives a shit about another person. The fact he keeps a stony straight face throughout adds to his mystery - as with Angeleyes and Tuco he wants the gold too, but not as fervently as Tuco or as callously greedily as Angeleyes - he's perpetually calm and cool, keeping things hidden.
As I look for the grave location of the guys from Wisconsin who were killed in Vietnam this song somehow goes through my head. It a sad irony that these guys watched this movie as a teenager only meet the same tragic fate as the confederate soldier a year or two later. I will not stop till I find them all. They shall not be forgotten.
When Blondie gives that soldier a final smoke before he passes, that summarizes the entire Civil War right there for me.. That summarizes how awesome and raw and honest this movie truly is.. This music, the movie, it's just mesmerizing.. God I love this movie.. Makes me laugh, cry, ponder, and all the above.. How many movies nowadays can truly do all those things to an audience?
@Daleo2005 Great summary of this scene...this "piece" of music however, for me, makes me think about the friends i've lost in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan..im a British Royal Marine Commando.. when i say friends i've lost in combat i dont refer only to guys from my unit..i have met a good many American, Canadian, Dutch troops in Afghan (and Americans in Iraq) and then found out later that they had fallen...of all of them i find i have the most in common with our brothers the Americans...R.I.P
@jerbear54 Thanks for the words of gratitude mate....as usual mate...Britain and America (along witha tiny handful of other nations) are leading from the front...and i for one am very proud of my involvement.
@LCStreetPhotographer God Bless you mate - you make me proud to be British and thankful that I have brave souls like you and others like you fighting for freedom from terror. Just keep coming home safe.
@LCStreetPhotographer You are a credit not only to Britain, but to every other country who's men and women you've fought alongside. I am glad to acknowledge I'm British when I know people like you fight and bleed out there to keep us people safe from extremists over the world. Thank you, you are a true hero to many.
@Kelly14UK just like quentin tarantino said, the perfect movie has never been made, but what is perfection is the last 25-30 minutes of GBU, from the moment the bridge blows up its just perfect
Ennio Morricone is a master in the arts of music. Lil Wayne is a nobody and will never reach the heights that Ennio Morricone has reached. This song makes me think of the soldiers fighting over seas and if I had the chance I would personally thank them all.
this song come from the civil american war but the Morriconne version and the movie are from 1966. Only a year after US 1st deploy of troops to Vietnam!!! Well... I can be wrong but I think that the song fits perfect to the moment that US were beginning to live in that time. The Viet war was awful (as all wars of course) but this version could have been used to create an antiwar opinion in people agains Nam conflict, i think...
One of the most touching parts of the film. Here Blonde shows he's truly a good spirit by offering comfort to a dying young man. Thanks for the posting.
@13thTry ...I dont think he sounds like that at all ...he just dosnt want classic movie music put in the same catagory as rap nigger shit, that some moron thugs think is music...thankfully all those rap & hiphop "stars" either get killed in drive bys, od or die from some other nigger thing...in any event society is rid of that filth early...
I used this music as a background of a video "St Louis Jane Doe - The Case That Haunts" on YT. - If you view it, I hope it will be with reverence. She was found in rubble much like the dying soldier... KWH
actually its not an anti-war message its about greed and lust for money. like look at angle eyes he kills anybody that gets into his way along with tuco and blondie. theyre all crooks. the message about the movie is symbolic about how brother fought brother and how everyday citizens killed each other for there own reasons ie blondie, tuco, angel eyes
This is what was playing in the scene where Blondie gives that dying rebel soldier a last smoke. That is one of the most powerful movies scenes I personally have ever seen, and one of the hardest to watch.
@randommagnum Brilliant scene! Kurt Vonnegut, author of some of my favourite books, said about writing film scripts that every scene should move the plot forward. This scene is quite irrelevant to the plot, yet I think the film is better for having it. In fact this whole film is full of such irrelevant scenes and I suppose it's one of the exceptions that proved Vonnegut's rule...
The sounds of my passing...
