The three-hour plot was slightly delayed in the early stage. To explain the appearance of The Good, the Good and the Bad, there are too many descriptions, but each character’s appearance is very distinctive, and each person’s appearance is accompanied by his own story, which is the story behind it. To pave the way.
The most exciting shot appears at the end. Western films often like to use gunfights as the ending of the film, while "The Good, the Bad and the Good" is the opposite. It is completed by only three central characters. However, this episode has been edited by the director to produce 74 shots: first it is given an ancient Colosseum. For the long-range shots, the three people spread out in 32 seconds to form a stable triangle position, and then the shots fixed the opponent's position from behind the three people. Afterwards, a series of mid-range, close-up and close-up switching made the audience's attention focus on the character's pistol and eyes. During the switching process, the psychological changes of each character can be clearly seen. As the rhythm of the soundtrack becomes more and more exciting, the editing It was even shorter, until the bad guy fell over and the music stopped abruptly. This famous passage that became a commentary by the American Film Academy creates a strong atmosphere of tension and is a manifestation of the expressiveness of wide-screen composition.
There is also an impressive shot of when the bad guy arrives at the cemetery and runs to find the tombstone of the hidden treasure. The director uses a set of telephoto shots to blur the background of the character. A bunch of soldiers flashes next to the bad guy. The tomb, combined with the large cemetery and the number of tombstones shown by the previous wide-angle lens, strongly reflects the anti-war theme of the film. The allegory and reflection on war are also reflected in the film many times.
