Tu sei giudeo e l'antenati tua falegnami hanno fabbricato la croce dove poi hanno inchiodato nostro Signore Gesù Cristo. 

Posso esse ancora un po' incazzato pe' sto fatto!?

Rare video alert: Lee at a Carnival party in Italy! Have fun and try to guess which costume he wore before pressing play. (translation below)

A Carnival dinner organized by the Consorzio Stampa Cinematografica for cinema stars. In attendance: the terrifying Lee Van Cleef, in perfect western attire, Franco Franchi in burgeois attire, Catherine Spaak and Alberto Sordi, who shows an ecstatic smile: the dinner is free. But he's not the only one enjoying himself. Among the award recipients, alongside Sordi, are Franco and Ciccio: those two don't need masks, not with faces like that. Prizes were also given for best Bonnie and Clyde-inspired costume. And finally, Liana Orfei. Having left her lions behind, she has turned to floriculture: she is playing the part of a rosebud. As the saying goes, there is no rose without thorns. Quite right. The thorns will come the moment Liana Orfei starts acting.

"Lee Van Cleef in perfect western attire." Yep. He could have dressed literally as anything else but nooo, western attire it is.
