I stopped in Tucumcari back in 1996. When I opened the car door it felt like a blast furnace. It was 107 Farenheit that day. You didn't dare touch any metal in the sun. The train tracks were still there. Historic Route 66 passes through.
Lee was an awesome character. He had that fearless presence that you just had to respect. He was a quick study and intelligent. Served with the navy in WWII. I'm glad his ship didn't go down, we would have missed out on some great acting.
Lee Van Cleef got on board a jet in Boston going one way...across the Atlantic to London, England. The FAA was baffled when the plane landed in Tucumcari.
From a time when movies was real magic! Not the synthetic bullshit we get served today.. Thanks to Lee Van Cleef for all his contribution.. Many thanks! He is deeply missed..
These movies were great. They kept your attention from start to finish. I think this one was my favorite, maybe because it had Lee Van Cleef in it. He was just as good as Eastwood.
alkiv8, thank you... this is the best ALFA MALE attitude ever, LEE is unbelievable, so strong. When I need power, I remember this line: "This train WILL stop at Tucumcari" !!
"I did get off...Thanks!" Perhaps the best line of any western. You wont see actors like Lee anymore. Hollywood has become so completely "jewified" that masculine images and ideals are now completely suppressed by their agenda. They seem to prefer a more geeky feminine male in their own image...
@Reverendjim1 I'm not Jewish, but you may be taking things a little far here. Do you have any reason for hating on Jews, or is it just more convenient? Lee Van Cleef is still a bad-ass, and infinitely more than you, so stop trying to make yourself feel better.
@hullothereyall I am not taking "things" too far... I don't like to accept things for convenience as it would be much easier to accept the medias agenda of "jewafeid" political correctness than to push against it. Do you always make typically PC centric assumptions or is it just a convenient disagreeable stance on your part? Lee Van Cleef died in the 80's & the present emasculated jew agenda would grant little space for his style. Stick to your urban Euro want -to-be cafe's... Jewchink!
@Reverendjim1 I am not convinced it is just Jewish influence. There are many liberal minded people in hollyweird who are NOT Jewish. And except for a few action movies, there is a de-masculizing influence in movies and TV.
So I fear you have singled out one group while ignoring the influence of numerous others who are outside that group.
@unclemikeb I am sorry but you're stupid if you are not convinced. The jews completely set the agenda in Hollywood!! Non-jews must be liberal or success will be very arduous if at all. They also have much control into the music you hear on radio stations. What an argument you have nearly every Hollywood chief is jewish & many more in many other capacities 60-70% relative to 2% in population yet you focus in the few non-jew liberal exceptions. Your a mindless idiot!
@hullothereyall I don't hate anyone! I am simply state what I believe (and many many others) to be the truth. You of course, like many others see directed criticism as hate... Even if I did hate anyone or any group, that is my prerogative as is my choice to express it if I so felt the need! However for you Criticism = Hate.. !
one of the great things about Leone's films is that they made Van Cleef a star when US filmmakers never bothered with him...the man deserved it, a great actor
Yes, Van Cleef is a great actor. And, interestingly, one would not need to to be a great gunslinger to pull the emergency cord in order to make the train stop at Tucumpari. Just pull it and see.
Yeah and he was aBOUT to REALLY "get off" if that railroad man kept running his trap. "I DID get off, thanks." lolololol while he was scratching where he wasn't itching (showing his 'gun'). R.I.P. Lee Van Cleef.

This was filmed in Spain. Notice the non American locomotive and whistle and non American cars and wider gauge.
