The talkative passanger is played by one Jesús Guzmán, who is with his humble age of 93 is still alive. Apart from Clint Eastwood, he is the only surviving credited cast member.
Thank you for pointing that out. One of the good things about UA-cam. It seems from IMDB that Mr Guzmán (born Madrid 1926) is still plugging away as of 12 June 2021, made a movie in 2020 and will be 95 in three days. Marvellous!
+cosmicdogdancer lol a ramp... makes sense. I'm not English. the number of words I used to describe it is less than the number of letters in the actual word 'ramp'.
Lee Van Cleef got on board a jet in Boston going one way...across the Atlantic to London, England. The FAA was baffled when the plane landed in Tucumcari.
I stopped in Tucumcari back in 1996. When I opened the car door it felt like a blast furnace. It was 107 Farenheit that day. You didn't dare touch any metal in the sun. The train tracks were still there. Historic Route 66 passes through. Lee was an awesome character. He had that fearless presence that you just had to respect. He was a quick study and intelligent. Served with the navy in WWII. I'm glad his ship didn't go down, we would have missed out on some great acting.
Ur comment sounds like 1 of a few that actually has been through tucumcari, u r correct it is hot down here! Most the time summer hovers around 110 or at least in the hundreds, not sure if u r aware though this film from what I can find was filmed in Spain, I didn't believe it was actually filmed in Tucumcari New Mexico as the surrounding terrain looks nothing like it does in real life
@@e-reptiledysfunction2243 it's filmed in Spain, I've seen some locations where it was filmed. They are all around Almeria, Spain. And some indoors were filmed in Rome
These movies were great. They kept your attention from start to finish. I think this one was my favorite, maybe because it had Lee Van Cleef in it. He was just as good as Eastwood.
Lee Van Cleef had fallen on hard times when Leone chose him for this. Saved his career and over the next decade, he made the equivalent of about $10 million USD from a bunch of spaghetti Westerns. Very happy for him, he was the heart and soul of this film.
@@redemptionz5012 I said as far as I know there is no tucumcari Spain! I know there is a tucumcari NM I was there 3 days ago! But this film was made n Spain! Not n tucumcari! But yes they r obviously basing it there
No actors with strong charisma nowadays? Ok then, let me drop some names: Daniel Day-Lewis, he's a chameleon in every role but I think him in the movie There will be Blood makes my point. Al Pacino is another one (seriously, watch Heat), Anthony Hopkins, Gary Oldman, Mads Mikkelsen (watch Valhalla Rising), and Javier Bardem. These are all people who aren't "pretty boy hollywood" actors because that would be too easy. Especially Daniel Day LEwis in There Will Be Blood oozes the same steel cold charisma Lee Van Cleef could pull off. In short, you might do well to familiarize yourself with current actors. You can go ahead and try to deny all these actors aren't charismatic like Van Cleef but that comes at the risk of sounding like an idiot. All these actors have earned their worth and have been acting for decades on decades.
at the time Van Cleef was being ignored in Hollywood, he was broke, had turned to drink and was working as a painter/decorator to try and make ends meet when Leone, fascinated by his features, offered him the role of Colonel Mortimer after Robert Ryan had rejected the part...FAFDM turned Van Cleef into an international star and he went on to make more than 30 westerns at $250,000 a time...a great story
Lee Van Cleef died at age 64 of a heart attack in 1989 and his secondary death was complications of throat cancer but he suffered a massive heart attack
El Indio your right he was excited as he thought he was being offered role of the villain and was happy to get to play the good guy role of Colonel Mortimer

And he's so tough he walked from the passenger car, across the couplings and through the walls, to the horse car ... and didn't even get his suit mussed.
Just passed through Tucumcari again while on vacation, and I admit, every time we pass by along I-40, I still look out the window to maybe get a glimpse of Lee Van Cleef and his horse exiting the train.
Leone was a movie genius to create this genre of western style movie at a time when westerns in general were becoming pass'e. Not coincidentally, his casting choices were superb - even Gian Maria Volonte as El Indio in the other films. I sincerely loved all of them and pull out the DVD's every couple years to re-watch.
Their is an old train station but it is much bigger than the 1 on here! Also the surrounding terrain looks nothing like what's n the movie, I live a half hour from Tucumcari, go there a few times a month, I'm not yet 30 yrs old so never saw this town n its prime, from what I hear it used to b a busy little town with lots of businesses, now it's pretty much a shit hole imo, most ppl r good regular folk but seems like a good chunk of ppl around my age have gotten hooked on drugs, those ppl seem to scatter like roaches though u don't c them often, for the most part u deal with decent ppl there! Tbh I'm wondering if this was even shot n Tucumcari bcuz Tucumcari mountain isn't even n the video, big mountain right on edge of town, also surrounding area isn't nearly as desert like as it is n this movie, perhaps when this movie was filmed it was but not today it isn't
I was in that place today, it was amazing. No rail tracks, no building. Just some ruins. I drive the same route in a car on the railroad. Very special. ...........
@@sebastianhaj I keep seeing the same thing, bunch of ppl so full of 💩! Saying tucumcari looks exactly the same when this move was never filmed in Tucumcari it was filmed in Spain as u said and from what I can find their is no tucumcari Spain, only tucumcari I can find is the town I live by n new mexico
You have to love the dialogue of the old west, Amazing how they bring it all to life.These spaghetti westerns are the most unique no other film looks or sounds like these. A glass a wine a little herb to smoke and these films are hypnotizing, Or maybe its the weed or the wine, Anyway these series of films are epic.
That's why they got Lee Van Cleef for the role. He probably timed it himself in a one-take shot...lol...Lee was the original most interesting man in the world, long before the Dos Equis guy.came along.
I wonder what station he bought the ticket for. He didn´t have a tight schedule of any kind, so why not just buy a ticket to Tucumcari for when the train stopped there? Plus, I don´t know of any Bibles entitled "The Bible", rather it´s "Holy Bible". I guess jewish-pimped Hollywood would never call a Bible "Holy", yet I may be wrong. Does anybody know about a Bible called like that on the fillm?
Mr. van Cleef played the role/scene very well. I had wondered if someone would have posted this scene. I could not help but laugh when he says -- "I did get off"...
I marvel the intelligence of the railroad man. It took him about one second to understand that the only sensible thing to do is to... knock off, let's say.
-Would have been a busy day for Colonel Mortimer, if it had gone on to Las Vegas New Mexico, as it did back in the late 1800's. He would have faced Clay Allison. If the train had then gone on south of Santa Fe, past Cerrillos NM, to Albuquerque New Mexico, the gun slinging lawyer El-Fego Baca would have met him, as he stepped down from the train. ;)
I've been from Tucson to Tucumcari, Tahachapi to Tonapah, I've driven every kind of rig that's ever been made, driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed...
This happened to me once. There was industrial action on the King's Cross to Cambridge line (ca 1981). One aspect was to announce stations that the train was no longer stopping at. One early evening it was Baldock where I was due to disembark. As we approached someone pulled the communication cord, the train ground to a halt, and a fair number of us got off. The train driver and guard was furious and shouted at us. I went up to them and said if I found out who did it I would buy them a pint.
The network movie premiere was Fall 1973 and I remember seeing it. What always amazes me is that shot of the “Tucumcari” sign as the train pulls in. That shot seems to have a 3D quality.
You know how there's a meme floating around that reads "Always be yourself. Unless you can be Batman, in that case be Batman." I'd rather be Lee Van Cleef.

Even though Eli Wallach is not in this one - all 3 of these guys were Legends- Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef and Eli Wallach - - who lived into his 90s and had a face for the movies and was a great actor. You're right they don't make any actors like this anymore. Clint Eastwood is the last of the great movie stars
My family's suburban broke down in Tucumcari on vacation to California...it was the beginning of the greatest family vacation since Aunt Edna died in Chevys stationwagon..I'll never forget it.That was when America was still land of the free and home of the brave.
How did he time it so perfectly that the train comes to an emergency stop so that his door is right over the horse ramp? He is not only gets his way with the railroad company by flashing his gun, but he has the ability to precisely position where a train car will stop while having no control over the braking system.
I tried this in Manchester but got a fine. They didnt fine my horse though. I only wanted to use the line.." I did get off. Thanks." But network rail obviously arent Lee Van Cleef fans. Must work on my thousand yard stare.
I've been through Tucumcari on a vacation out to New Mexico and Texas. I'm from New Jersey so it made me laugh when we went through the town because I thought of this scene.😆
A few feet either way and the entire scene would have been shot. However, these kinds of astoundingly unlikely events littered this entire genre of movie. This gave the anti-heroes a divine quality as if they were being both protected and guided by a guardian angel giving the movies a spiritual nature.
@@robertmunich3990 What are you babbling on about? For one thing I was talking about the 58 dislikers, not the people in this scene. And how would they know he was a killer gunfighter anyway? He had a mean stare and wore a gun but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a killer gunfighter. Try thinking before you type anything else, numbnuts!
Stopped in Tucumcari one night while traveling across the country in 1994. Had a steak dinner. Was the best steak I ever had. Got up the next morning to leave but decided I had to find out. Went back to the same restaurant, ordered the same steak. Dam thing was just as good as the first one. Best two steak town I've ever been in, hands down.
@@ironhat2 No worries buddy, a number of my friends live in Texas and I remember a trip to Amarillo where I thought of trying the 72oz. steak but chickened out haha.
Of you've ever been on I-40, the 'Tucumcari Tonight!' signs start maybe 400-500 miles away. Hilarious. You think it's another Las Vegas. Then, after the 400-500 miles... "What... the... fuck?"
Yeah and he was aBOUT to REALLY "get off" if that railroad man kept running his trap. "I DID get off, thanks." lolololol while he was scratching where he wasn't itching (showing his 'gun'). R.I.P. Lee Van Cleef.
It’s hard to imagine any other rival for Eastwood. Van Cleef was so classy, others (like Bronson) were too similar to Eastwood. Classy villains are soooooooo baaaaad; others are merely ugly...
If you look at Tucumcari today, it is a ghost town. The railroad has no passenger services, the freeway has passed it by, everywhere is closed down and boarded up. It looks quite depressing.
I always got a kick out of when the camera moves to the tender behind the engine of the train that there are no passenger cars behind being pulled. In fact, there are no cars behind at all.
There are two kinds of people in this world, those who get off in Tucumcari, and those who do not get off in Tucumcari.
Those who get off at Tucumcari and those who get off at Santa Fe and return by way of Amarillo.
When you want to shoot, shoot; don't talk.
Take it to the station the gentleman's leaving.
There’s three we are the type that moved here…..

I liked that show, growing in the 80s I never understood why would they cancel such great show :)
Nobody tells Lee Van Cleef where the train will stop. He tells YOU where the train will stop.
Lee Van was Brilliant....👍
One of the best scenes of this movie. LvC totally badass.
My exact thought!😎
How did he time it so perfectly that the train comes to an emergency stop so that his door is right over the horse ramp?
He is not only gets his way with the railroad company by flashing his gun, but he has the ability to precisely position where a train car will stop while having no control over the braking system.
I tried this in Manchester but got a fine. They didnt fine my horse though. I only wanted to use the line.." I did get off. Thanks." But network rail obviously arent Lee Van Cleef fans.
Must work on my thousand yard stare.
I've been through Tucumcari on a vacation out to New Mexico and Texas. I'm from New Jersey so it made me laugh when we went through the town because I thought of this scene.😆
Monsieur LEE VAN CLEEF dans ses œuvres, la grande classe !!
A few feet either way and the entire scene would have been shot. However, these kinds of astoundingly unlikely events littered this entire genre of movie. This gave the anti-heroes a divine quality as if they were being both protected and guided by a guardian angel giving the movies a spiritual nature.
58 people didn't want the train to stop at Tucumcari
Igor M. - but the train DID stop 😂
@@The_Big_Dawg Yes but they were hoping it wouldn't.
@@robertmunich3990 What are you babbling on about? For one thing I was talking about the 58 dislikers, not the people in this scene.
And how would they know he was a killer gunfighter anyway? He had a mean stare and wore a gun but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a killer gunfighter. Try thinking before you type anything else, numbnuts!
@@CB-xr1eg ha ha ha ha thank you sir for a good laugh !
@@robertmunich3990 What a funny way of saying, "Oh sorry I got it wrong".
brilliant scene.....
Colonel Douglas Mortimer's 1st scene.
I've been to Tucumcari.
It's its own punishment.
-turn south toward Clovis and cross some Real 'Raglands'.
Train stops lovely what a brevity of Lee Van Cleef
I like how he pulled that cord at JUST the right time to stop dead in the middle of that ramp so he and his horse could get off comfortably.
like I said before - Mortimer timed the emergency brake perfectly - he is a very precise man
What a BOSS
I like the conductor ... takes a quick look, thinks quick . nope not worth my job or life to go any further lets gooooo lol
Now they "Start!"
Excellent timing.
Stopped in Tucumcari one night while traveling across the country in 1994. Had a steak dinner. Was the best steak I ever had. Got up the next morning to leave but decided I had to find out. Went back to the same restaurant, ordered the same steak. Dam thing was just as good as the first one. Best two steak town I've ever been in, hands down.
Which restaurant was that? thanks
@ chicagoan sorry friend. Was 26 years ago. The name has disappeared but that flavor lives on!
@@ironhat2 No worries buddy, a number of my friends live in Texas and I remember a trip to Amarillo where I thought of trying the 72oz. steak but chickened out haha.
Whatever you do in this world may it be with confidence and purpose.
Fantastic ...superstars Lee and later Eastwood
Evergreen classical movie.
Well, peddler, watch and learn, this whistle stop is my exit strategy.
Tucumcari is in New Mexico.
yeah but was filmed in tabernas..south of Spain
still is
@@manuelfloresescobar7657
The south of Spain 🇪🇸 is all high country, and well worth just riding through on a bus or train.
@@christopherellis2663 and get some chics too!!!
@@charlyperez1636 North is better for those. 💚
"I did get off....thanks." So cool.
Of you've ever been on I-40, the 'Tucumcari Tonight!' signs start maybe 400-500 miles away. Hilarious. You think it's another Las Vegas. Then, after the 400-500 miles...
"What... the... fuck?"
Lee Van Cleff , a legend !!!
train stops right at the horse ramp... love it. Lee was that bad ass.
At 1:33, you can see Castle La Calhorra to the left of the locomotive!
I just watched this movie and out of sheer coincidence 2 days later I'm spending the night in Tucumcari
I did get off. Thanks.
Yeah and he was aBOUT to REALLY "get off" if that railroad man kept running his trap. "I DID get off, thanks." lolololol while he was scratching where he wasn't itching (showing his 'gun'). R.I.P. Lee Van Cleef.
Once knew a preacher like this man , a bounty hunter if I remember .
The best shot in the Carolinas🤫
It’s hard to imagine any other rival for Eastwood. Van Cleef was so classy, others (like Bronson) were too similar to Eastwood. Classy villains are soooooooo baaaaad; others are merely ugly...
I bet he was reading the Revelation.
No, because the Bible he is holding is opened halfway through.
God bless... :)
TotenAuge (DeadEye) Then, Book of Daniel. )))
jurisprudens
It could be.
:)
It doesn't look like he flips to the very end of the bible to me in the movie.
he is still in the Old Testament.
1:22 The brake sound from "The Train (1964)." And Thomas and friends
"This train'll stop at Tucumcari....if it knows what's good for it."
Lee Van Cleef.
What a bad ass!
😄👍
Train don't stop in Camborne on Wednesdays !
"I Did Get Off Thanks" legend, they can't make movies like this anymore.
RIP LEE 👍🙏❤😎
If Angel Eyes wants to stop in Tucumcari, then the train stops in Tucumcari.
EPIC!!!!
If you look at Tucumcari today, it is a ghost town. The railroad has no passenger services, the freeway has passed it by, everywhere is closed down and boarded up. It looks quite depressing.
Wonder what it was like to play in a western in 1965 then 1985 then 2000. Clint eastwood
I always got a kick out of when the camera moves to the tender behind the engine of the train that there are no passenger cars behind being pulled. In fact, there are no cars behind at all.
The continuity person was out sick that day.
bet you go around telling kids theres no father christmas
@@uttaradit2 LOL. Actually, I play Santa every year for Phoenix HFA and other organizations. But continuity is what it is.
LEGEND
