Sergio Leone's first western also happens to be the movie that shot Clint Eastwood to worldwide fame, immortalising his "Man With No Name" character and showcasing Leone's unique kinetic filmmaking style. Well known for being a remake of Kurosawa's classic Yojimbo, this is a slick, brutal western of the highest order.
