Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo

Three men are looking for a buried fortune in coins. Two of the men, Blondie (Clint Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach) are con men. When Blondie tires of this, he leaves Tuco in the middle of the desert. Tuco survives, gets a gun and tries to turn the tables on Blondie. However, in the desert they find a stagecoach full of dying soldiers, one of which gives each of them a different clue to where the coins are hidden. The two men go to a mission so that Blondie can recover from injuries. They leave there in Confederate uniforms as disguises but are then imprisoned by Union troops. While there, the third man appears. Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef) tortures Tuco into telling him what he knows. Blondie joins Angel Eyes' men, and they take off looking for the coins. Tuco escapes from imprisonment, and he and Blondie meet up again. The two set off for the graveyard where the coins have been buried. Angel Eyes is there, too, and gets killed in a shoot off. Tuco digs up the coins, Blondie puts him in a noose and rides away with half the loot. But in the end he lets Tuco live.
