Van Cleefs shining moment
27 January 2005
I really like Clint Eastwood but this is really Lee Van Cleef's film. From the moment you see him on the train to the final gunfight his performance is faultless. I think this is even better than GBU in many respects. The smaller more personal vendetta has real human emotion to it. Van Cleef and Eastwoods tenuous bond is another highlight. Leones direction is again brilliant in the detail it brings to situations. What other film has Lee Van Cleef, Clint Eastwood and Klaus Kinski in the same scene!! Morricone delivers another fantastic score. The final duel with the musical watch is sheer magic. Glad this finally made into the top 250.
