Arguably the greatest of the spaghetti westerns, this epic features a compelling story, memorable performances, breathtaking landscapes, and a haunting score. In the Southwest during the Civil War, a mysterious stranger (Clint Eastwood), and a Mexican outlaw (Eli Wallach), form an uneasy partnership. The men team up to beat out a sadistic criminal and find $20,000 that a soldier has buried in the desert.—Rotten Tomatoes
