I think the run is cute.
The lasting legacy of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
As Sergio Leoneās spaghetti western masterpiece turns 50, its influence can still be felt in films made today, writes Luke Buckmaster
I think the run is cute.
The bit with the chicken was awkward. As soon as that was over I pretended it never happened. Beautiful set and cinematography as always though.
I have inquiries also about Wallachās Western wear. Tucoās, really.
The first is about those studdedā¦ what do you call them? Those tan flares around his trousers in a good part of the movie. What do you call those?
Also those black boots at the end? Those are nice. I noticed the pretty little pattern on them which is hard to see through all the dirt. Did Simi design them or else where were they bought?
Rumors this is coming from Criterion againā¦
Great! I hope they retain the colour-timing they perfected on the last release.
Why do these links indicate a kind of rumour?
Actually it would be great to have a Criterion release, as MGM isnāt willing to release the film properly.
Properly? What do you mean properly?
Correct colours, the original mono audio (away with that 5.1. shitty shit), away with the grotto scene in the bonus section, and the international (161 min) and the Italian version (175 min) on seperate discs.
And on a third disc the famous so called Stanton cut (172 min).
Right
!!! (weāre not here)
The standalone US BD of the 4K remaster does include the original mono (accept for the reinstated scenes).
OK, cool. Iād been wondering what colour Tucoās jacket actually was in the final scene? Was it brown, or reddish brown?
I know.
It would be necessary to make a better dub for the new scenes. It is possible to alter the voices so that they sound closer to the original.
In the early 90s German TV did this to the long version of Viscontiās Ludwig, and it was nearly perfect.
Chaps! Those āflaresā are called chaps.
Aww, I love that! Iāve been inspired to wear a belt and suspenders thanks to this movie.
Whatās that thing hanging around Eliās neck? Not the choker, the other thing. I wonder what that thing is?
New article on the film

Not crazy, asinine (joking)
I find I only love FFD more after I watch GBU, i like the fanboy in me transition that happens from the end of GBU to the beginning of FFD when the man with no name rides into town, us knowing all he just went thru lol
Is there anyway we can get a petition to have the 161 min ver preserved on hd?
Iāve heard that the picture quality on the Italian DVDs is closer to the original. Can anyone verify this? Also, isnāt there any fandubs with the English mono audio available? If there is, someone please help me get one!
