O wow didn’t know that. When I looked it up didn’t mention his death. O well, still we are losing many great ones from yesteryear and were stuck with a bunch of pansies.

Eli Wallach as Tuco was magnificent. He never shut up he was perfect matched with Clint and Lee van Cleef..
I think this is one of the best movies ever made.

Tuco WAS magnificent. That sneaky look he had was great. He was a PERFECT groveler, the the perfect ahole.
The producers could NOT HAVE chosen a MORE perfect "BAD" than vanCleef....eeeeeveeiil "Angel Eyes."

Both my husband and I also thought that this WAS one of the best movies ever made. Ah-ah ah ah ah...I can hear that Ennio Morricone theme! ♫ ♬

The ONLY fault and it wasn't big, was the guy who played the northern or southern side general: ...he was swigging booze from A WINE BOTTLE, which looked like it was RIGHT off the red-checkered tablecloth of your local Italian restaurant. Lol. It reminds me FORCIBLY, each time, that the movie was 100% produced by Italianos. BRAVO!

He was in the Magnificent Seven too. He played a gun fighter who had lost his nerve.

I thought that was Battle Beyond the Stars

MFU was intended as a sendup, but they were a little too subtle about it. Look at the opening, going through a tailor shop, really? When they made Get Smart, they knew they had to be more obvious about it.
