The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Sergio Leone, 1966 (suom. "Hyvät, pahat ja rumat")

This is a film so beautiful and ingenious in plot and character that there's not actually much to say. There are several profound plot details related to the characters that affected me, such as: Why didn't Blondie get beaten up half-dead by Angel Eyes at the prison camp but Tuco did? Tuco's a pretty great shot too but why was it that Blondie always got to do the shooting and Tuco the hanging in their hang-n'-shoot-n'-run money earning scheme? Tuco is a religious man and his brother is a priest; and he isn't stupid but capable of genuinely outsmarting the ever so smart Blondie early in the film. He gets increasingly genuinely affectionate towards Blondie as the film goes on albeit showing that towards an enemy/rival is not an option; so he wasn't really bad in the sense of evil like Angel Eyes was. Well what was he if he wasn't bad or stupid then? Well, he was just "ugly"!
