    Rewatched The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Goes without saying it’s a great movie with lots of spectacle and fun characters (except Blondie who I find flat) and plenty dynamic shots. Got more from it than back when I was a teen, but still prefer For a Few Dollars More.

    First time watch for the daughter tonight: Sergio Leone's towering masterpiece THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY. This is one of those films where every time I watch it, as I'm watching it, it's the best film I've ever seen. I ran this on 35mm once upon a time. Watching it on 4K tonight: astonishment.

    oh I personally feel totally comfortable recommending Jesse V. Johnson's Hell Hath No Fury, a film made for about $2 in Belarus. I put it on my list of favs that year: "It’s a little like if Sam Peckinpah directed a feature-length riff on the cemetery scene in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly."

    REAL TALK: I mean, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is an out-and-out remarkable movie, but cinema has rarely featured stretches of film as flawless and transcendent from the point where Tuco starts running around the graveyard to the very end of the film. I don't have the words for that jazz.

    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is TECHNICALLY a prequel as The Man with No Name finds the poncho that he would wear in the previous two films in the Dollars trilogy.

    OK in my "watching movies that are so stereotypical that i have never felt like watching them" so far: The Good The Bad And The Ugly is still watchable. many references to this movie are just the soundtrack, and the idea of cowboys. much of the actual events of the movie are new to me.
