TucoChannel, You got it all wrong. Pablo has become a holy man serving the wounded and needy in times of brutal war. Tuco meanwhile is the black sheep, who had run away in search for a better life, eventually ending up as a bandit. It can't be said that "Tuco was the morally superior one". Tuco didn't stayed, he abandoned his family completely, cutting off all ties and leaving them behind, and "chose his own way". Anyway, he is a great character because he is aware of his guilt, and he shows regret (he is not totally evil).
Of course I'm not evil. I dare any of you to show me one crime I committed not done out of necessity. Vindictive? Yes. But evil? Clearly you understand nothing of Tuco.
I agree. Tuco lived a sinful life no doubt. But the Priest role was to show Christian charity to his brother and imitate Christ's love, not judge his brother. Great scene.
THIS is what raises The Good the Bad and the Ugly far above the level of the somewhat derogatory label of "spaghetti western". Great scene, and great actors!
Yeah..if this rare kind of high performance doesn't hve an oscar, it's an artistic crime..i guess back in the day Hollywood saw this epic movie with a small eye cuz it was directed by an italian in a foreign country (Spain) with a total italian crew nd the peculiar genre is spaghitti westerns, sort of it can't be taken seriously..
tru dat........I guarantee you that Eastwood learned more about acting from playing his role next to Wallach in this film than Eastwood ever learned anywhere else. Wallace stole the show and won the hearts of probably 99.999% of fans of this film. *Long Live Tuco!*
This is most definitely one of the best scenes in the film (I loop it often). This scene humanizes Tuco’s character immensely. After years of watching the film I’ve come to the conclusion that TG,TB,TU, is really Tuco’s movie, and Clint and Cliff are guest stars. Eli’s Tuco has the longest screen time of the three principles. This scene cements his character and provides backstory for Tuco. Equally, I agree with someone else here who said that Morricone’s score is a character in the film; almost like a Greek chorus. No question about it, one of the greatest Westerns ever made.
To settle it down, both of Blondie (Clint Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach) are both the main protagonists, a dual protagonists movie, neither of them is a support character.
I agree that this scene is the best in the movie full of great scenes. If they would have shown 1 more minute we would have seen Tuco and Blondie' scene and that is also great. In my opinion this movie is all Tuco. Thank god Charles Bronson turned down the role, allowing Wallach to mesmerize us with this great character.
The scene after this wraps the whole thing up though. Tuco and Blondie ride away on a wagon and Tuco is still visibly shaken by the conversation with his brother. Blondie offers him a cigar and as he takes it he turns back into the "evil" Tuco. Pure gold.
In the scene right after, Blondie gives Tuco his cigar to smoke. You can tell both Blondie and the audience changed their opinion of The Ugly, and we realize Tuco is the most human character in the film, because deep down every person is ugly one way or another. This is also probably why Blondie spared Tuco in the end and even shared the gold.
Jesus! In this one scene Sergio Leone rendered every western made before him obsolete, shallow, and vapid. Goddamn! The man was a genius! Also, RIP, Eli Wallach.
Let's not forget the brilliant, atmospheric setting, cluttered with dusty religious objects and furniture, the camera work, the way the music comes gently in, and of course the acting of both Eli Wallach and the wonderful Luigi Pistilli. It's a stunning scene.
@Brian JW was a nasty piece of work. A racist who refused to work with black people he was also pro the Vietnam war and also a supporter of McCarthy and his witch hunts of the 'supposed' Left!
@Brian I'm not Left and nor am I a traitor. Your language is too strong. BTW I'm sorry about the election results; I had money on DT winning. People must be MAD to elect Biden; he ain't all there!
"Leone" has restored dignity to Westerns, a genre that is already dead; and made them more realistic; made of real people, even if a little banned. But in Hollywood they didn't notice, perhaps because they were shocked by the success of a genre that the Americans believed was their thing; but in Europe they found a strong public consensus but a little less criticism. Leone's films are all a tribute to America, which he loved, especially in that western perspective. And how is it repaid? With zero oscar, zero awards, not even in that important part of all the films of Leone that was the brilliant music of Morricone. Thanks America !!
It's at this point that the character of Tuco steals the movie. The audience suddenly sees him in totally different light, and he is perhaps the most human person in the movie. Like a flash of lightning illuminating a dark night, the audience suddenly has a glimpse of a man who grew up in grinding poverty. Who was forced to become a bandit to survive, and yet you can sense that he wishes he had a better roll of the dice in life. That he never wanted to be a bandit.
I already have seen this movie nearly a hundred times and the reason was Tuco the great!! one of my most favorite actor. his performance was really peerless!
Tuco has so many great scenes, it is impossible to claim the best. My vote would go for "revolvers," but this one is indeed even more worthy from a character development standpoint. He is the star!
@@edwardaguilar6322 Interesting view. But do you really think all the debauchery and the poor circumstances made his brother less a man. Both were rough callings that offers a cup we did not have drink of. A rough time to be born and rough lives to be lived. Being a man of the cloth offered many challenges. If this were real life and not a movie. I would have said God have mercy on both their souls!
Brilliant, beautiful, outstanding film. Every character played a imersiating part. This is why this film is so very cherished and will always be utterly liked and loved
TGTBTU has often been dismissed as a "spaghetti Western". Yet this scene has more drama and profundity than 2 hours of any "modern" movie. The dialogue and delivery in this four minute scene is awesome.
felix mendez, I am also old enough to remember the 1960s; I was 16 when this movie came out. But I always read they were called spaghetti Westerns because they were predominantly done by Italian directors and producers with a mostly Italian cast. Never heard the thing about the spaghetti sauce being used for blood. Not saying you're wrong, I've just never heard of that before. Besides, the Italian Westerns are better known in America than the Spanish ones. In fact, I don't know the name of a single Spanish Western. I believe it was the American press that gave the Westerns of Leone and other Italian directors that nickname.
An absolute classic. I saw this movie in the year 1973. Ever since it has been one of my best western movies ever made. Not out dated. It is for all times.
There is not only Eli Wallach in this scene.. but also Luigi Pistilli! An excellent actor who killed himself because nobody really understood the true value that he had, like always with geniuses
Eli Wallach did a masterful job in this role. When I started looking back on my favorite scenes in this movie, I realized they were all scenes involving Tuco.
As iconic as the Man with No Name is, Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez (known as The Rat) is one of the greatest characters to grace the silver screen. He is a hilarious comic relief, a sympathetic underdog, a greedy opportunist and a resilient badass all rolled into one. You love him, hate him, root for him, laugh at him, learn from him and connect with him. He is extremely well-written, full of personality and depth and was brought to life to maximum perfection by the Oscar-worthy Eli Wallach. He is the reason The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the cinematic masterpiece it is, other than Sergio Leone's direction and Ennio Morricone's music.
People talk about eastwood but wallach owned this film. Blondie and angel eyes were simply defined but tuco was the only character with true depth and complexity and this scene nails it all.
I met Mr. Wallach at the after party of V for Vendetta and spoke with him briefly this movie and role was his favorite even more than the magnificent 7, he was a really great actor
One of the most underrated scene of the entire movie, puts things into perspective. Tuco was the most interesting character of the entire movie. In this scene, the "ugly" we get to see that Tuco is probably damaged mentally, had a very hard life, but doesn't hate the world, he even helps his brother up when get hits him...
Tuco's life is fascinating, it has more anecdotes and experiences than the rest of the characters. His humanity and soul is more truthful and honest with the thought of a man than of a movie mannequin.
"Even a tramp like me, no matter what happens, I know there's a brother somewhere who'll never refuse me...a bowl of soup." "Sure. Well, after a meal, there's nothing like a good cigar."
Totally forgot about this scene. Really very sad indeed. The music, direction, acting, everything is just spot-on. Also, infinite thumbs-up to both Eli Wallach and Luigi Pistilli. Fantastic performances from both.
One of the most powerful scenes in this movie...Tucco wanting his brother's approval and then striking out..his brother expressing sorrow and at the last minute calling him brother...just powerful!! I felt bad for both of them!
he cut the clip too soon , it's more beautiful when he tried to lie on blondie that his brother didn't want to let him go , although blondie knows the truth , nothing like the family , and both of them don't have families
Outstanding performance by Eli Wallach. I think he deserved and award for his acting ability in this movie. He carried the G the B and the U right though to the end and kept you on the edge of your seat. So convincing as a Mexican Bandit. If they casted a different actor for the part as Tuco, then the movie wouldn't of had the same impact on everyone as it did. He actually did his own stunts too. Even the hanging seens where he's on horseback with his hands tied Good thing they had a calm horse.
RIP Tuco. I love this film. Last year I bought the special edition DVD. I’m so glad the he and Clint were available to do voice over dub for the deleted scenes.
One of my top 10 movies of all time. One of the reasons is this scene here and the opening scene with angel eyes. It is grandiose and huge but filled with subtleties that are easy to miss. Great stuff
I haven't spoken to my brother in 14yrs . I was banished from the church My family goes to. They all moved away and I stayed behind alone and made my own way much like Tuco . This scene hit me in the feels. I miss my brother
Thanks for posting! I agree, best scene in the movie. I agree with the other comments as well that Eli Wallach gave a superb performance that was the heart of this great movie.
I realize the comments on the deeper side of things here. All well worth noting, every bit. But but gosh, just look at the inside of the room. 'Sacred Objects' standing about. The texture of the .....well , the texture of everything. The authentic feel of the landscapes and places. How things moved across such a wide and rich Vista. I think this invented the term 'Epic'. You can breathe, smell, and taste the scenes in this picture. Somehow, I just don't think it could be replicated today, no matter what the budget.
I love how Blandi is there watching the whole thing and then after Tuco talks about how full he is from all the great food and hospitality from his brother bahahahah!! We need movies like this again. Shot with the same equipment and style. To hell with CG and Digital stuff. I want the gritty old westerns back.
Marvellous acting from Eli Wallach -what a talent he is!- and what a scene, too! We finally learn a little about Tuco's background here, and see a little humility -even humanity- in the bandit. Not much, though...just enough to give the character even greater depth. However, is it the 'best scene ever'? For my money, no, because it's only one of many in 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly'. Mind you, that's a mark of how great this film truly is.
One a colourful bandit and the other a boring priest! RIP Eli Wallach: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly was his masterpiece. "When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk!"
Tuco is sincerely happy to see his brother, but the judging manner combined with parents death wounded him as a bullet in his heart. Anger erupted between them for blaming all evil on Tuco but In the end the two brothers understand all of this was too much for everyone (tuco helps his brother to get up, father Ramirez ask for forgiveness). This scene is acted as it were sad, but i think they really forgave each other so it represents an hope for reconciliation. It's a very christian concept: it's never too late to repent and forgive.
Only now do you think of them😢This one statement pissed Tucco off!! He had to fend for himself and his parents. The guilt was probably unbearable to him let alone having no contact with his brother as well. A very powerful scene that explains why Tucco is the way he is!! A human that made human mistakes.
megamovieman101 Like you know how the universe works and if there is an actual Jesus or not. You shouldn't comment on things you have no idea about. Just say nothing...
Religion101 Religion doesn't know how the universe works. No one does. But Christianity, if we're going by the Bible, has been disproven... the Bible contradicts itself, and reality, so many times. I won't name any here because if you're not ignorant you'll either acknowledge the contradictions or Google them... and I will not say nothing. I have been harassed by religious people for too long to just say nothing. This is exactly why I commented what I did, because a stupid religious debate sprang up on a movie scene...
megamovieman101 Religion101 His demons are popping out no wonder he gotta respond, and yes religion does not show how everything works...but the bible does. It is all about a relationship with Jesus Christ not religion Megamovieman. God bless you.
Leone loved to characterize society in his movies and approached it in a very simple manner. "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" is an approach to understand the human character. We identify ourselves with each of these characters throughout the movie. Tuco's character is the most complex. Represents the working class society that grows in the slums. Although now adult and responsible for his deeds, it tells us that there is an explanation for his behavior. He's the inner child we all have.
Indeed, the word “mine was harder” has its reflections on me. My elder siblings right away entered married life and avoid the responsibilities to have the rest finish their where the father is a disabled blind. Yeah, i was left alone. Indeed, so hard but somehow made it through like in this movie.
I like Lee Van Cleef, Clint then... So incredible! But in this movie Eli Wallach was so charismatic that he became my favorite character in this perfect masterpiece that we mortals dare to call "a movie"
It was this scene which changed the trajectory of the relationship between Tuco and Blondie. When Tuco gets in the wagon, Blondie reaches over and hands him a cigar, he puts it in his mouth and smiles...
E' il momento in cui scopriamo che anche Tuco ha una famiglia e un'anima. Ma la mente, lo sguardo e la musica tornano con un cambio repentino e geniale ai "dollari": il tempo dei sentimenti è durato anche troppo, per Tuco.
reminds me of me and my brother. glad to see him but he is not feeling the same about me. i found out about my moms passing a few days after she was laid to rest on a cold morning. i peeked thru the window in her room and she wasnt in her bed , i knew she was in the cemetary for some cruel strange reason.he never tried to reach me at my work to tell me. all because i had problems with drink, never killed anyone, or ran my car into a telephone pole , that was 4 years ago. i hate to tell u my story but be kind to your brothers my friends. unconditional love and compassion makes a strong family.
You are right. Short of having an identical twin, your brother (or sister) is the only other human being that exists or will exist, that is 99% of what you are.
I always wondered what Blondie was thinking when he was watching through the doorway opening. I wondered if this scene ever changed Blondie's attitude and opinion of Tuco.
it's strange, in the original italian dub is the father that's dead a long time ago, and the mother died few days before this "comeback", still asking for tuco. I love this things, and I love this scene too. what a character, what a dialogue.
Half of me wishes the guitar that plays after "Only now do you think of them" stayed for a little while longer, but the other half likes that it quiets down for Tuco's reply.
lol "that so, even a tramp like me no matter what happens, i know there's a brother somewhere who will never refuse me a bowl of soup"......prolly my best scene in the movie
One of the many things I love about this scene is the priest ends up asking the thief for forgiveness.
TucoChannel, You got it all wrong. Pablo has become a holy man serving the wounded and needy in times of brutal war. Tuco meanwhile is the black sheep, who had run away in search for a better life, eventually ending up as a bandit. It can't be said that "Tuco was the morally superior one".

I agree. Tuco lived a sinful life no doubt. But the Priest role was to show Christian charity to his brother and imitate Christ's love, not judge his brother. Great scene.
If you had a brother you loved, you'd realize that it has nothing to do with Tuco being a bandit
He asked his brother for forgiveness.
I love the look of pain in each others eyes. Outstanding acting by both actors.
Eli's artistry was based on what he said: I don't act to live, I live to act.
Powerful scene. Dramatic change of emotions. R.I.P Tuco. THANK YOU!
THIS is what raises The Good the Bad and the Ugly far above the level of the somewhat derogatory label of "spaghetti western". Great scene, and great actors!
And you got Once Upon A Time in the West is full of moments like this... Sergio Leone was that good!
For those who wanna study acting, just watch carefully Eli Wallach throughout this epic movie.. should be enough.
How did eli wallach not win an oscar for his performance? What an oversite.
Yeah..if this rare kind of high performance doesn't hve an oscar, it's an artistic crime..i guess back in the day Hollywood saw this epic movie with a small eye cuz it was directed by an italian in a foreign country (Spain) with a total italian crew nd the peculiar genre is spaghitti westerns, sort of it can't be taken seriously..
tru dat........I guarantee you that Eastwood learned more about acting from playing his role next to Wallach in this film than Eastwood ever learned anywhere else.
Wallace stole the show and won the hearts of probably 99.999% of fans of this film.
*Long Live Tuco!*
Excellent comments for an EXCELLENT actor, Eli Wallach.
One of his best!!!
yeah, look and learn... from Eli!
He gives so much...
Everybody finds a little of himself in Tuco... me a whole bunch 😂
This is most definitely one of the best scenes in the film (I loop it often). This scene humanizes Tuco’s character immensely. After years of watching the film I’ve come to the conclusion that TG,TB,TU, is really Tuco’s movie, and Clint and Cliff are guest stars. Eli’s Tuco has the longest screen time of the three principles. This scene cements his character and provides backstory for Tuco. Equally, I agree with someone else here who said that Morricone’s score is a character in the film; almost like a Greek chorus. No question about it, one of the greatest Westerns ever made.
Ok so tuco es de first actor or clint Eastwood
To settle it down, both of Blondie (Clint Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach) are both the main protagonists, a dual protagonists movie, neither of them is a support character.
I agree that this scene is the best in the movie full of great scenes. If they would have shown 1 more minute we would have seen Tuco and Blondie' scene and that is also great. In my opinion this movie is all Tuco. Thank god Charles Bronson turned down the role, allowing Wallach to mesmerize us with this great character.
You nailed it brother. Cheers
I completely agree...
The scene after this wraps the whole thing up though. Tuco and Blondie ride away on a wagon and Tuco is still visibly shaken by the conversation with his brother. Blondie offers him a cigar and as he takes it he turns back into the "evil" Tuco. Pure gold.
Wallach should have won an Oscar for this role.
RIP Tuco. One of the GREAT characters.
I've watched this movie about 150 times, and every time it's on ,I'll watch it again , best Western ever,tuve is cool
In the scene right after, Blondie gives Tuco his cigar to smoke. You can tell both Blondie and the audience changed their opinion of The Ugly, and we realize Tuco is the most human character in the film, because deep down every person is ugly one way or another.
This is also probably why Blondie spared Tuco in the end and even shared the gold.
+Jay Ahn That's deep thinking, but also very true. I never looked at things like that.
+Jay Ahn : Eli Wallach was a fantastic actor.
spot on
The Italian playing Tucos brother was good, too...You could see the pain and regret in his face.
dom uncl They were both an amazing actors. It's hard to find actors as good as them in today's movies :(
Jesus! In this one scene Sergio Leone rendered every western made before him obsolete, shallow, and vapid.
Goddamn! The man was a genius!
Also, RIP, Eli Wallach.
nope even the duke cannot surpass this .........
tru dat......absolute brilliance in every respect including the camera work and music
Let's not forget the brilliant, atmospheric setting, cluttered with dusty religious objects and furniture, the camera work, the way the music comes gently in, and of course the acting of both Eli Wallach and the wonderful Luigi Pistilli. It's a stunning scene.

An Oscar does not make a movie great. 55 years later this movie still moves people. That makes a movie great.
It's at this point that the character of Tuco steals the movie. The audience suddenly sees him in totally different light, and he is perhaps the most human person in the movie.

Who was forced to become a bandit to survive, and yet you can sense that he wishes he had a better roll of the dice in life. That he never wanted to be a bandit.
I also like that when Tuco finds out that his parents are dead, he drops the whole bandito act and we see real emotion from him for the first time.
I already have seen this movie nearly a hundred times and the reason was Tuco the great!! one of my most favorite actor. his performance was really peerless!
Tuco has so many great scenes, it is impossible to claim the best. My vote would go for "revolvers," but this one is indeed even more worthy from a character development standpoint. He is the star!
The real bandit was his brother the priest,took the easy way out

Stole the show!!

That the part of the priesthood

Morricone and Leone were were already way beyond their time.
There is not only Eli Wallach in this scene.. but also Luigi Pistilli! An excellent actor who killed himself because nobody really understood the true value that he had, like always with geniuses
I did not know this.
i have older brother, we fought each other when young, he hated me for years, but i never gave up on him.
Those eyes.
The entire movie is simply great piece of film making, editing, casting, acting, music, screenplay, story. It's simply incredible
RIP Tuco
Scene always brings a tear to the eye, now even more so...
Eli Wallach did a masterful job in this role. When I started looking back on my favorite scenes in this movie, I realized they were all scenes involving Tuco.
Exactly!!!
Eli stole this movie!!!
As iconic as the Man with No Name is, Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez (known as The Rat) is one of the greatest characters to grace the silver screen.
He is a hilarious comic relief, a sympathetic underdog, a greedy opportunist and a resilient badass all rolled into one. You love him, hate him, root for him, laugh at him, learn from him and connect with him. He is extremely well-written, full of personality and depth and was brought to life to maximum perfection by the Oscar-worthy Eli Wallach.
He is the reason The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the cinematic masterpiece it is, other than Sergio Leone's direction and Ennio Morricone's music.
Love this scene. Always moves me close to tears. Especially today. RIP great man
People talk about eastwood but wallach owned this film. Blondie and angel eyes were simply defined but tuco was the only character with true depth and complexity and this scene nails it all.
A roller-coaster of emotions in only four minutes.
Comedy, drama, even a short fight scene in a short moment. A great glimpse into the past of the lovable Tuco. "I didn't have one, I had many!" lmao
There's a brother out there who won't deny me a bowl of soup rest in peace brother!
I met Mr. Wallach at the after party of V for Vendetta and spoke with him briefly this movie and role was his favorite even more than the magnificent 7, he was a really great actor
Wow, I'm jealous...in a good way.
Kudos to you for talking to "The Man", Mr. Wallach.
One of the saddest and touching moments of the entire movie, they could not have chosen a more perfect music, excellent!
One of the most underrated scene of the entire movie, puts things into perspective. Tuco was the most interesting character of the entire movie. In this scene, the "ugly" we get to see that Tuco is probably damaged mentally, had a very hard life, but doesn't hate the world, he even helps his brother up when get hits him...
Tuco's life is fascinating, it has more anecdotes and experiences than the rest of the characters. His humanity and soul is more truthful and honest with the thought of a man than of a movie mannequin.
"Even a tramp like me, no matter what happens, I know there's a brother somewhere who'll never refuse me...a bowl of soup."
"Sure. Well, after a meal, there's nothing like a good cigar."
Totally forgot about this scene. Really very sad indeed. The music, direction, acting, everything is just spot-on.
Also, infinite thumbs-up to both Eli Wallach and Luigi Pistilli. Fantastic performances from both.
One of the most powerful scenes in this movie...Tucco wanting his brother's approval and then striking out..his brother expressing sorrow and at the last minute calling him brother...just powerful!! I felt bad for both of them!
he cut the clip too soon , it's more beautiful when he tried to lie on blondie that his brother didn't want to let him go , although blondie knows the truth , nothing like the family , and both of them don't have families

Love the songs n every dialogue, thums up for all the actors,every role they played I love it.
Outstanding performance by Eli Wallach. I think he deserved and award for his acting ability in this movie. He carried the G the B and the U right though to the end and kept you on the edge of your seat. So convincing as a Mexican Bandit. If they casted a different actor for the part as Tuco, then the movie wouldn't of had the same impact on everyone as it did. He actually did his own stunts too. Even the hanging seens where he's on horseback with his hands tied Good thing they had a calm horse.

R.I.P Eli Wallach
Scene always brings a tear even to my eye.
that was good acting when he met his brother again,, that skill there is uncoachable
legend!!! R.I.P Eli Wallach
the guitar at the end really puts tears in my eyes. strong men do cry.
RIP Tuco. I love this film. Last year I bought the special edition DVD. I’m so glad the he and Clint were available to do voice over dub for the deleted scenes.
Omg
" please forgive me, brother."
For being instrumental in the making of a bandit.
Tuco was right. His way was harder.
98 years of tuco..respect
Love this scene. I always remember the line, "mine was harder." There's a life lesson there. Love you Eli!
Tuco was amazing character.fantastic Eli wallace.such entertaining.
One of my top 10 movies of all time. One of the reasons is this scene here and the opening scene with angel eyes. It is grandiose and huge but filled with subtleties that are easy to miss. Great stuff
I haven't spoken to my brother in 14yrs . I was banished from the church My family goes to. They all moved away and I stayed behind alone and made my own way much like Tuco . This scene hit me in the feels. I miss my brother
One of many great scenes.
Tuco=Perfection Eli in this movie is fantastic. He is a legend

Shit made me cry when I first watched it as a teenager
2:10 "And you, outside of evil what else have you managed to do?"
Whenever someone who constantly pissed you off calls up on you after a long time.
I love how Blandi is there watching the whole thing and then after Tuco talks about how full he is from all the great food and hospitality from his brother bahahahah!! We need movies like this again. Shot with the same equipment and style. To hell with CG and Digital stuff. I want the gritty old westerns back.
Marvellous acting from Eli Wallach -what a talent he is!- and what a scene, too! We finally learn a little about Tuco's background here, and see a little humility -even humanity- in the bandit. Not much, though...just enough to give the character even greater depth. However, is it the 'best scene ever'? For my money, no, because it's only one of many in 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly'. Mind you, that's a mark of how great this film truly is.
he will be remembered here along my whole life as Tuco. one of my most favorite actors!!
One a colourful bandit and the other a boring priest!
RIP Eli Wallach: The Good, The Bad and the Ugly was his masterpiece. "When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk!"
@Joseph Henderson Don't agree. It was Tuco who stayed behind to help his parents when his brother went off to take holy orders!
Its not just a movie its life
Many great scenes in this movie; but it's hard to pick one that's better than this one.
and Blondie feeling compassion hands him his cigar, knowing what was really up.
Great actor Eli Walach
Loved the character Tuco and Eli Wallach is one of my all-time faves!
Tuco is sincerely happy to see his brother, but the judging manner combined with parents death wounded him as a bullet in his heart. Anger erupted between them for blaming all evil on Tuco but In the end the two brothers understand all of this was too much for everyone (tuco helps his brother to get up, father Ramirez ask for forgiveness). This scene is acted as it were sad, but i think they really forgave each other so it represents an hope for reconciliation. It's a very christian concept: it's never too late to repent and forgive.
Only now do you think of them😢This one statement pissed Tucco off!! He had to fend for himself and his parents. The guilt was probably unbearable to him let alone having no contact with his brother as well. A very powerful scene that explains why Tucco is the way he is!! A human that made human mistakes.
Awsum acting. RIP
My brother, he's crazy about me.
Now Tuco will be making all his movies up in Heaven
I hope he accepted Jesus Christ.
Lisandro Perez Oh shut up

Like you know how the universe works and if there is an actual Jesus or not. You shouldn't comment on things you have no idea about. Just say nothing...
Religion101 Religion doesn't know how the universe works. No one does. But Christianity, if we're going by the Bible, has been disproven... the Bible contradicts itself, and reality, so many times. I won't name any here because if you're not ignorant you'll either acknowledge the contradictions or Google them... and I will not say nothing. I have been harassed by religious people for too long to just say nothing. This is exactly why I commented what I did, because a stupid religious debate sprang up on a movie scene...
megamovieman101 Religion101 His demons are popping out no wonder he gotta respond, and yes religion does not show how everything works...but the bible does. It is all about a relationship with Jesus Christ not religion Megamovieman. God bless you.
They are all great , tuco is special . Great actors . Realistick , logick , Said it right .
R.I.P Eli Wallach God Bless You .
This scene is priceless!
The best western movie ever.
Leone loved to characterize society in his movies and approached it in a very simple manner. "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" is an approach to understand the human character. We identify ourselves with each of these characters throughout the movie. Tuco's character is the most complex. Represents the working class society that grows in the slums. Although now adult and responsible for his deeds, it tells us that there is an explanation for his behavior. He's the inner child we all have.
Indeed, the word “mine was harder” has its reflections on me. My elder siblings right away entered married life and avoid the responsibilities to have the rest finish their where the father is a disabled blind. Yeah, i was left alone. Indeed, so hard but somehow made it through like in this movie.
this scene is so close to home. were all alone in this world
I like Lee Van Cleef, Clint then... So incredible! But in this movie Eli Wallach was so charismatic that he became my favorite character in this perfect masterpiece that we mortals dare to call "a movie"
RIP Tuco
Tuco the best ever!
It was this scene which changed the trajectory of the relationship between Tuco and Blondie. When Tuco gets in the wagon, Blondie reaches over and hands him a cigar, he puts it in his mouth and smiles...
cette scéne est magnifique entre 2 frères qui ne savent pas se dire qu ils s aiment vraiment
+serge d'occ je suis d'accord...
it brings tears in my eyes so emotional moment
E' il momento in cui scopriamo che anche Tuco ha una famiglia e un'anima. Ma la mente, lo sguardo e la musica tornano con un cambio repentino e geniale ai "dollari": il tempo dei sentimenti è durato anche troppo, per Tuco.
Brothers.
reminds me of me and my brother. glad to see him but he is not feeling the same about me. i found out about my moms passing a few days after she was laid to rest on a cold morning. i peeked thru the window in her room and she wasnt in her bed , i knew she was in the cemetary for some cruel strange reason.he never tried to reach me at my work to tell me. all because i had problems with drink, never killed anyone, or ran my car into a telephone pole , that was 4 years ago. i hate to tell u my story but be kind to your brothers my friends. unconditional love and compassion makes a strong family.
You are right. Short of having an identical twin, your brother (or sister) is the only other human being that exists or will exist, that is 99% of what you are.
Tuco is the real protagonist
RIP Mr.Eli!
I always wondered what Blondie was thinking when he was watching through the doorway opening. I wondered if this scene ever changed Blondie's attitude and opinion of Tuco.
it's strange, in the original italian dub is the father that's dead a long time ago, and the mother died few days before this "comeback", still asking for tuco.
I love this things, and I love this scene too.
what a character, what a dialogue.
It's a very beautiful scene. Sergio Leone had a beautiful soul!
I like also the next scene, when Tuco is sadly talking about his lonelyness and Blondie give him the cigar.
Awasome!
RIP Eli! thank you for everything!
Half of me wishes the guitar that plays after "Only now do you think of them" stayed for a little while longer, but the other half likes that it quiets down for Tuco's reply.
lol "that so, even a tramp like me no matter what happens, i know there's a brother somewhere who will never refuse me a bowl of soup"......prolly my best scene in the movie
*Long Live Tuco!*
It was so touching when Tuco helped his brother up before walking out on him.
Best Tuco scene. It turns a thief into a tragic anti hero.
He should be given an award for his actings.
