The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
AU : THE TRIO SPLITS THE MONEY THREE WAYS. @sadhill
THE AIR WAS TENSE AND HEAVY WITH POSSIBILITY as the money was split in three by the blond man’s rugged hands. occasionally , tuco and angel eyes shared a glance -- angel ‘s face stony and unmoving , tuco glancing away quickly , remembering all too well the beating he’d suffered a day ago. as he watched coins clatter into place , felt sweat trickle down his neck, listened to no - name’s quiet counting , he couldn’t help but wonder what life was going to be like from now on. his whole future seemed like a whole stretch of unknown blackness in front of him ; which was nothing new. angel eyes had woken up this morning thinking he’d either have his way with the gold, or die -- he wasn’t unhappy with this outcome in particular. all guns had been discarded , all bullets taken out and glistening in the sun.
naturally , tuco split moments after the counting was finished, all vengeance on ‘ blondie ‘ forgotten now that he was considerably richer than he had been. no amount of money’s worth your neck, i’ve realized! he exclaimed , voice jolly as he slapped no - name jovially on the back. that’s how gamblers get it. soon after , it was just angel eyes and no - name standing alone in the circle of sad hill. the man dressed in black and the man dressed in white. the bad and the good. at first, their eye contact was tense ... but then angel broke it , retrieving his pipe from his inner coat.
“ so. “ he said, packing it with his thumb , his shoulders feeling strangely lighter than they had in previous days. “ what now? “
Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach, Lee Van Cleef on the set of The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly (1966) Sergio Leone.
" If your friends stay out in the damp, they're liable to catch a cold, aren't they ? Or a bullet. "
WHAT A SURPRISE -- NOT REALLY -- TO FIND himself looking down the barrel of no - name’s revolver ! angel eyes was a strange case study : any challenge, any bump in the road , any misstep in the plan gave him an odd sense of glee ; as was shown now , the way instinctively he grinned up at the blond - haired man who towered above him . in bounty hunting, he was unmatched. he was damn good at what he did , and no one dared mess with him , knowing how cruel and apathetic he could become . no - name, though, interested him. angel eyes was a cat. no - name was a mouse. yes, angel eyes knew that he’d catch and kill him eventually , inevitably -- it was in his nature to always win -- but a good chase was not something he normally was awarded.
angel eyes propped himself up on one elbow , rubbing an eye , as if blondie had only just said good morning and nothing more. “ it’s not so uncomfortable. “ angel eyes informed him , yawning indulgently . yet moments later he looked back up at the other , dark eyes enigmatic -- serious yet light with amusement . angel eyes always looked as though he was thinking something opposite from what he was saying. “ haven’t got friends . what was that you said once about not trusting anyone in this line of work ... ? if you’re going to shoot me, shoot me. i haven’t got all week, amigo. “
" I've never seen so many men wasted so badly. "
DESPITE BEING SPOKEN WITH A FRACTION of coolness, as the mysterious stranger was wont, the words make angel eyes ‘ lips quirk upward a moment , hard, mean eyes shining with amusement : naturally, THE GOOD would bring up such a sentimental thought here in the prison camp. it had been a while since he had any such thought, any sympathy ; a man was just a man here in the wild west, and he’d do what it took to survive ... and make a tidy sum at the end of the day. angel eyes shakes out the match he’d use to light his cigarette , puffing out smoke and eyeing the man who stood by the window, watching, watching . always watching through squinted eyes. “ you’re an interesting fella ... aren’t ya? “
funny how a man could be both a crook and an angel in these parts, and yes : blondie confounded, interested, and amused him all at once. with an exhale of smoke, angel eyes removed his feet from where they were propped up on the nice wood desk, remarking almost with boredom : “ if i were you, i wouldn’t dwell on it so much . waste of time. “
