No doubt in my mind. Beautiful, haunting, evocative of the film's time & era and yet places it distinctly in a very stylized (and fictional) old American West. Very stylish and substantive, and utterly unforgettable.

I'm always impressed by its elegance and beauty. Great great soundtrack. Great great film.

I know a young lady who is a screenwriter and I have told her several times to see TGTB&TU. She doesn't like westerns. "That's ok," I tell her, "it's not just a western. It's a comedy, an action-adventure film, a drama, a war movie...."

It's also one of the best films ever made. Oh well, she won't learn!

For a good litmus test to see who is 'cool' or 'not cool,' I find that people who know that the last 2 tracks of the soundtrack album are 'The Ecstacy of Gold' and 'The Trio,' and can hum the tunes upon polite request, tend to be pretty 'cool!' ;-)

So what's your favorite line from The Good The Bad and The Ugly?

That of course is another thread which I think has been done more than once.
