A Fistful of Dollars wasn't the first spaghetti western, but the genre was never the same again after Sergio Leone's audacious breakthrough. Starring Clint Eastwood in the role tha t made him an international icon, the film introduces a nameless stranger who rides into a Mexican border town torn apart by a vicious power struggle between two rival families, the Baxters and the Rojos. His only chance of escape is a standoff against the latter's merciless leader, Ramón (Gian Maria Volonté). With For a Few Dollars More, Leone expanded the canvas of his mythic, feverish vision and refined his unmistakable signature. Two rival bounty killers (Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef) hunt the same target: the psychopathic bandit "El Indio" (Volonté). Forming an uneasy alliance, the pair infiltrate El Indio's gang... but as greed begets violence, the hunters become the hunted, leading to a final showdown in a circle of death. Leone's trilogy concludes with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, a violent, picaresque epic of operatic scale. When Blondie (Eastwood) and the treacherous Tuco (Eli Wallach) learn of a buried cache of Confederate gold, they are drawn into a desperate race against Angel Eyes (Van Cleef), a ruthless mercenary with his own twisted code of honour. Set against the devastation of the American Civil War, their pursuit builds to one of cinema's most iconic three-way standoffs, bringing Leone's grand sense of dramatic scale to its apotheosis.
