The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Directed by Sergio Leone

Starring Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach

For three men the Civil War wasn't hell. It was practice.

While the Civil War rages on between the Union and the Confederacy, three men – a quiet loner, a ruthless hitman, and a Mexican bandit – comb the American Southwest in search of a strongbox containing $200,000 in stolen gold.
