Make them count") of Il Buono, il Brutto, il Cattivo (released in the U.S. in 1968 as "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly"), the classic 1966 Sergio Leone German/Italian/Spanish Civil War cowboy spaghetti western ("For Three Men The Civil War Wasn't Hell. It Was Practice!"; "Screenplay by Age-Scarpelli, Luciano Vincenzoni and Sergio Leone") starring Clint Eastwood (in the title role as The Good), Lee Van Cleef (in the title role as The Bad), Eli Wallach (in the title role as The Ugly; billed as "also starring Eli Wallach in the role of Tuco"), Aldo Giuffre, Mario Brega, Antonio Casas, Rada Rassimov, Aldo Sambrel, Enzo Petito, Luigi Pistilli, Livio Lorenzon, Al Mulloch, Sergio Mendizabal, Molino Rojo, and Lorenzo Robledo AND Hang 'em High, the classic 1968 Ted Post cowboy revenge western ("The hanging was the best show in town. But they made two mistakes. They hung the wrong man and they didn't finish the job."; "Written by Leonard Freeman & Mel Goldberg") starring Clint Eastwood, Inger Stevens, Ed Begley, Pat Hingle ("as Judge Fenton"), Alan Hale Jr., Dennis Hopper, L.Q. Jones, and Arlene Golonka. Note that this movie was Clint Eastwood's first American movie after his trilogy of Italian spaghetti westerns (and the other movie he made in Italy, "The Witches"). He returned to the U.S. and wanted Sergio Leone to direct this movie, but he had already committed to make "Once Upon a Time in the West". The producers wanted many other famous directors to direct this movie, but Eastwood insisted on Ted Post being hired (Post had directed him in many episodes of TV's "Rawhide"). At one point after filming started, one of the producers clashed with Ted Post, and Eastwood told him to leave the set and not return, or the movie would not continue filming, and the producer did as Eastwood told him! Eastwood would show this kind of loyalty to people like director Ted Post and actors he liked working with, hiring people he had worked with in the past to work with him over and over again throughout his film career.
