Leone's directing style is now down to the perfect effect. Innumerable close-ups, countless slowly accumulated scenes and countless foreign total shots make this movie an experimental piece of avant-garde cinema.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:22.399999618530273px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The story is completely subordinated to the image. It is this time only a pursuit by the Wild West in which the characters from one location to the other and from one action scene to walk.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:22.399999618530273px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">While the previous two parts are still set in an unnamed period, this movie clearly placed against a historical setting. The American civil war is a perfect backdrop for the story of greed and betrayal. It's a definite study to the bad in man and the presence of a pointless war gives the film an extra dimension.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:22.399999618530273px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The music of Ennio Morricone is very famous and the flute tune is still very popular. In this film, the music is still more present than in the previous parts. The combination between image and music starts here even to adopt opera-like proportions. For a number of scenes is separate music written specially for that one scene fits. Those scenes are then carried by the music as an opera vocal parts that do.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:22.399999618530273px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">According to Leone himself was the presence of Tuco (Eli Wallach) the largest contribution to the film. He provides comic relief and by contrast to the gloomy drama and gives all the violence. Eastwood and Van Cleef copy actually their roles from the previous two films. Eli Wallach put pressure as hyperactive, talking, deep believer, cowardly, backstabbing, greedy and especially nasty Bandit down a humorous character that was previously not documented in a western occurred. He's actually a kind of parody of the wickedness of man. ==Awards and nominations<span class="mw-editsection" len="360" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.399999618530273px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">In 1968 "Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo" the second prize at the Laurel Awards. ==Trivia<span class="mw-editsection" len="345" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == For Example:
