Jag såg nyligen Fistful of Dollars och sedan För några få dollar mer . Båda filmerna hade en fantastisk skurk i Gian Maria Volonté och intressant Lee Van Cleef spelade en bra kille i den andra filmen tillsammans med Clint Eastwood.
Efter att ha tittat på de första 2 filmerna bakåt, får jag undra om det finns något speciellt resonemang / val som Sergio Leone fick göra för att välja Lee Van Cleef för att spela det dåliga i The Good, the Bad and the Ugly var det uppenbart val för den roll som redan finns i Gian Maria Volonté?
Det här beskrivs lite i filmens wiki . Kasta upp var inte mellan Van Cleef och Volonté för Angel Eyes , the Bad. Det var faktiskt mellan Van Cleef och Charles Bronson (som han senare kastade in Once Upon a Time in the West ):
Originally, Leone wanted Charles Bronson to play Angel Eyes but he was already committed to playing in The Dirty Dozen (1967). Leone thought about working with Lee Van Cleef again: "I said to myself that Van Cleef had first played a romantic character in For a Few Dollars More. The idea of getting him to play a character who was the opposite of that began to appeal to me."
Å andra sidan var Volonté ansedd för Tuco, Ugly , men ansågs inte vara komisk nog:
The director originally considered Gian Maria Volonté for the role of Tuco, but felt that the role required someone with "natural comic talent". In the end, Leone chose Eli Wallach based on his role in How the West Was Won (1962), in particular, his performance in "The Railroads" scene. In LA, Leone met Wallach, who was skeptical about playing this type of character again, but after Leone screened the opening credit sequence from For a Few Dollars More, Wallach said: "When do you want me?" The two men got along famously, sharing the same bizarre sense of humor. Leone allowed Wallach to make changes to his character in terms of his outfit and recurring gestures. Both Eastwood and Van Cleef realized that the character of Tuco was close to Leone's heart, and director and Wallach became good friends. They communicated in French, which Wallach spoke badly and Leone spoke well. Van Cleef observed, "Tuco is the only one of the trio the audience gets to know all about. We meet his brother and find out where he came from and why he became a bandit. But Clint's character and Angel's remain mysteries."
