That man was truly gifted. May he rest in peace.

Who'd have thought that the intro music for the good the bad and the ugly would have been so well known so many decades later. That music make that show the classic it is.

Shame on those who do not know who Ennio Morricone is, the single most iconic music composer ever lived creating the single most iconic soundtrack of any movie ever made

The single most iconic movie that featured the single most important civil war the world had ever seen with perhaps the most memorable and saddest yet most realistic portrayal of the American Civil War

A generation of clueless people out here yes.

Absolutely disgusting and disrespectful that someone would have to google this name to find out who it is.
A perfect example of the level of sh!t we have for movies nowadays and just how much it teaches, absolutely nothing.

This scene showcases just how incredible the people were who made this movie.

This scene showcases just why Good the Bad and the Ugly was such an iconic movie, most people will never ever understand just how deep this scene is. Notice how there was zero dialogue in this scene yet so incredibly powerful, notice how it just hits you deep you do not even realize the soldier is from the confederate army all you know and all you can see is he is a human being dying alone and here Blondie is fully revealed perfectly as to why he is the GOOD. All without saying a word without a single dialogue taking place. And yet I haven't scratched the surface of how deep this scene is and how important Ennio's masterpiece soundtrack plays into this.

This is why this movie is an absolute masterpiece. You would never ever get movies of this caliber again

Notice how Clint Eastwood doesn't take back his coat even after the soldier dies, how he turns away when the horse makes a noise in just the perfect timing to turn back and see the smoke exhales from the dead soldier, just an absolute masterpiece in every sense of the word

Wow...91. He made a good number there.

@ Rovin, I have all dem ting & then some pieces that not on the list. Classical compositions tho beautiful are not everyone's cup of tea.
ah doh unnastan why they had to put the moonlight sonata all the way to the end tho

[Rovin]

aaah yes u a man of taste bruh - * give u a e-bonx

yes true

most wont get what it is especially young & ignorant with limited exposure to anything else besides modern crap

d type of music u occasionally sit calmly in a room or car & listen quietly by urself to appreciate for what it is & at d time it was made , pure instruments & talent with nothing else to contaminate it ... thats why its still being played even after 100yrs

Aye I don't know if anybody ever saw a Soviet movie named "come and see"

If not you should, it is the single best war movie ever made that you most likely never heard about and there is a reason for that. It is however extremely disturbing the fact there are no hollywood plots and it feels like you just came out of a real war is truly something spectacular.

I would rate Come and See right up there with Good the Bad and the Ugly in all time greats.

I don't think I ever seen something more disturbing than this in my life considering it imitates the Nazi Occupation as real as you could possibly imagine.
