Friday, November 10 The Good is Blondie, a wandering gunman with a strong personal sense of honor. The Bad is Angel Eyes, a sadistic hitman who always hits his mark. The Ugly is Tuco, a Mexican bandit who's always only looking out for himself. Against the backdrop of the Civil War, they search for a fortune in gold buried in a graveyard. Each knows only a portion of the gold's exact location, so for the moment they're dependent on each other. However, none are particularly inclined to share... "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly," the last of Sergio Leone's Italian-made Western trilogy with star Clint Eastwood, is an improbable masterpiece - a bizarre mixture of grandly operatic visuals, grim brutality and sordid violence that keeps wrenching you from one extreme to the other. - Michael Wilmington, ChicagoTribune.com |
