The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (석양에 돌아오다 - 속 석양의 무법자, Italian: Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo, literally "The good, the ugly, the bad") is a 1966 Italian epic spaghetti Western film directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood as "the Good", Lee Van Cleef as "the Bad", and Eli Wallach as "the Ugly". Its screenplay was written by Age & Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni, and Leone (with additional screenplay material and dialogue provided by an uncredited Sergio Donati), based on a story by Vincenzoni and Leone. Director of photography Tonino Delli Colli was responsible for the film's sweeping widescreen cinematography, and Ennio Morricone composed the film's score, including its main theme. It was an Italian-led production with co-producers in Spain, West Germany, and the United States. Most of the filming took place in Spain.
Among Westerns, Sergio Leone's "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" maintains its reputation as an iconic masterpiece. Released in the U.S. in 1967, the sprawling three-hour epic became a landmark of the spaghetti western sub-genre and solidified director Sergio Leone, composer Ennio Morricone, and star Clint Eastwood's legacies in Hollywood. It also notably features one of the most memorable scenes in all Westerns: the bridge explosion. At a pivotal juncture in the film, Blondie (Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach) scheme to blow up a strategic bridge point between the Union and Confederate army outposts and gain access to a cemetery where they believe buried treasure lies.
