DVD Description
CLINT EASTWOOD IS "THE MAN WITH NO NAME" WHO TEAMS UP WITH THE EQUALLY LETHAL LEE VAN CLEEF IN PURSUIT OF A SADISTIC KILLER AND HIS BAND OF DESPERADOES

Synopsis
In the second film in Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Western trilogy (A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS being the first and THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY the last), the Man with No Name (Clint Eastwood) teams up with gunslinger Colonel Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) in order to extract reward money from Indio (Gian Maria Volonte), a mean and vicious bandit. There is little doubt as to No Name's financial intentions in the hunt, but Mortimer seems to be driven by something a bit deeper. A series of flashbacks (which would become a Leone signature device) provides the background for Colonel Mortimer's anger and desire for revenge. Morricone's score combined with Leone's trademark long and lingering shots bring the viewer ever closer to the human side of the Man with No Name. Although the film was not released in the United States until 1967, it was produced and released internationally in 1965.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fanatstic remastering, 5 Jun 2005
By A Customer
I bought the original release last year. At the same time I bought the brilliant re-mastered Once Upon a Time in America and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. I would encourage anyone to 'upgrade'. The film is beautifully restored to the same standard as the others, and you see the movie in a new light. The extra material is very interesting, especially the Christopher Frayling part.

In any case it is one of the best Westerns ever made.

5.0 out of 5 stars Undeniable, 21 Aug 2007
By Mr. R. Maxwell "Sparky" (Notts) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm gonna say something controversial now, I like this film more than The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

Of course the third in the trilogy is a masterwork which I love (even got a poster of it on my wall!) but there's something great about this film that makes me so fond of it, it's just unfortunate that the third film was such a landmark of the Western genre that this film often doesn't get the recognition it deserves, like a younger brother trying to live up to the greater achievements of the older. I think what swings it for me though is just the amount of brilliant one-off scenes that this film has. For instance, the card scene where Clint cheats (the film doesn't show it but i like to think he does!) 'I didn't hear what the bet was?' - 'Your life.' Also the tongue in cheek of it all is superb, like where Clint and Van Cleef test their shooting skill by shooting each others hats off and all over the place!

But don't let this mild humour fool you, there is a serious revenge story behind all this and the plot unfolds like the timepiece which is centre-fold to the story. Sergio Leone manages (along with its plot, action and everything else) to cram in a good deal of vivid imagery into this film as well, I for one will never forget the picture of the three mexican gunslingers silhouetted against the town waiting for Manco to enter. Additionally, don't expect to see Lee Van Cleef match his performance here in the good, bad & ugly, his portrayal of Colonal Mortimer here is understandibly tough but understatedly moving as the film reaches its climax, and for me its Cleef who steals every scene.

This film for me is a modern great/seminal classic whatever you want to call it its one of them! Add to all this a soundtrack which is probably the best I've ever heard on a Western, ranging from a lonely whistle to a full scale orchestral blast, possibly only matched by the composition heard in Once Upon a Time in the West, Ennio Morricone must have been an absolute genius. Basically this a must see movie, so see it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Clints Class shows again, 23 Feb 2007
By Mr. A. Craddock "T.C." (Middleton Manchester u.k.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Sequel to a Fistful Of Dollars as The man with no Name returns to continue as a drifter. The support of the brilliant Lee Van Cleef should not be under- stated in this classic western . This film is not only equal to the first film more likely it tops it with five star performances from the two men as the Spagetti western series builds nicely towards the climax in 1968`s The good , the bad and the ugly. If you have never seen this one originally released in 1965 watch this because you will not be disappointed in fact you will be on the edge of your seat throughout. Brilliant!
